Galectin-3 mediates with the alpha-3, beta-1 integrin the stimulation by cspg4 of endothelial cells migration. Galectin-3 plays an necessary part during the acquisition of vasculogenic mimicry and angiogenic properties associated with melanoma progression. LGALS3 overexpression is highly expressed in early stages of papillary carcinoma, and its expression intensity declines during tumor progression. Serum levels of LGALS3 are high in patients with thyroid malignancy but there is considerable overlap in serum LGALS3 concentrations between those with benign and malignant nodular thyroid disease. LGLAS3 takes part as an immune regulator to inhibit T-cell immune responses and promote tumor growth, as a result providing a new mechanism for tumor immune tolerance.

LGALS3 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 270 amino acids (1-250 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 28.3 kDa. The LGALS3 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Escherichia Coli.

Sterile Filtered colorless solution.

The Galectin-3 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 0.1M NaCl, 1mM DTT and 10% Glycerol.

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

The ED₅₀ for this effect is < 2.5ug/ml as measured by its ability to agglutinate human red blood cells.
