Role of the Carboxyl-Terminal Lectin Domain in Self-Association of Galectin-3†

TL;DR: Evidence is obtained suggesting that galectin-3 can self-associate through intermolecular interactions involving both the amino- and the carboxyl-terminal domains and the relative contribution of each depends on whether the lectin is bound to its saccharide ligands.
Book ChapterDOI

Galectins in apoptosis.

TL;DR: This review describes involvement of galectin-1, -2, -3, -7, -8, -9, and -12 in apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Galectin-3 Regulates Intracellular Trafficking of EGFR through Alix and Promotes Keratinocyte Migration

TL;DR: The results suggest that galectin-3 is potentially a critical regulator of a number of important cellular responses through its intracellular control of trafficking of cell surface receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting Glycosylated PD-1 Induces Potent Antitumor Immunity

TL;DR: PD-1 is extensively N-glycosylated in T cells and the intensities of its specific glycoforms are altered upon TCR activation, which provides novel insights into the functional significance of PD-1 glycosylation and offers a rationale for targeting glyCosylated PD- 1 as a potential strategy for immunotherapy.
