Galectin-1 accelerates high-fat diet-induced obesity by activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) in mice
Abstract Galectin-1 contains a carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) as a member of the lectin family. Here, we investigated whether galectin-1 regulates adipogenesis and lipid accumulation. Galectin-1 mRNA is highly expressed in metabolic tissues such as the muscle and adipose tissues. Higher mRNA...
