摘要
半乳凝素(galectin)功能多样,galectin-9作为家族成员之一,除了能诱导嗜酸粒细胞聚集和活化外,还介导细胞分化、凋亡、黏附、细胞间聚集、炎症反应的调控和肿瘤转移等。文章将就近年来galectin-9的研究进展进行综述。
Galectins exhibit a variety of biological functions. As a member of galectins, galectin-9 can induce accumulation and activation of eosinophils, it also plays a role in cell differentiation, apoptosis, adhesion, aggregation, modulation of inflammation and metastasis of tumor.
