Rat Galectin-1 ELISA Kit PicoKine®, Carrier-free

Galectin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS1 gene. The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Galectin-1 may act as an autocrine negative growth factor that regulates cell proliferation. Its expression in Hodgkin Lymphoma has also been shown to mediate immunosuppression of CD8+ T-cells. Additionally, Galectin-1 is thought to play a role in creating immune tolerance in pregnancy.

Galectin-1; Gal-1; 14 kDa lectin; Beta-galactoside-binding lectin L-14-I; Galaptin; Lactose-binding lectin 1; Lectin galactoside-binding soluble 1; RL 14.5; S-Lac lectin 1; Lgals1

Lectin that binds beta-galactoside and a wide array of complex carbohydrates. Plays a role in regulating apoptosis, cell proliferation and cell differentiation. Inhibits CD45 protein phosphatase activity and therefore the dephosphorylation of Lyn kinase. Strong inducer of T-cell apoptosis.
