Galectin 3 expression in regional lymph nodes and lymph node metastases of oral squamous cell carcinomas
Abstract Background Neck dissection is standard in surgical management of oral squamous cell carcinomas (oscc). However, the immunologic link between primary tumor and lymph nodes is insufficiently understood. Galectin 3 (Gal3) promotes M2 polarization of macrophages and contributes to immunosuppres...
