Background Information
Galectins are a class of carbohydrate-binding proteins implicated in multiple physiological processes including inflammation, immune responses, cell migration, autophagy and signal transduction (PMID: 29717004). Galectin-2 (Gal-2, also known as LGALS2) is a monocyte-derived carbohydrate-binding lectin; its upregulation correlates with reduced collateral arteriogenesis in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (PMID: 25884209). Additionally, Gal-2 may interact with T cells, particularly in the setting of inflammatory bowel disease (PMID: 15356130).
