Galectins and galectin-mediated autophagy regulation: new insights into targeted cancer therapy

Abstract Galectins are animal lectins with specific affinity for galactosides via the conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. Increasing studies recently have identified critical roles of galectin family members in tumor progression. Abnormal expression of galectins contributes to the proliferat...
