摘要

A research team comprising investigators from Argentina, France and the USA has identified a unique expression profile of galectins that can delineate the different stages of prostate cancer progression. Based on their initial findings, they were able to pinpoint a specific role for galectin-1 (gal-1) in neovascularization, and suggest it might be an attractive therapeutic target. The results of their collaborative effort are published in Cancer Research.Galectins are a family of glycan-binding proteins with known roles in tumour cell proliferation and invasiveness; a number of family members have previously been implicated in prostate cancer. "Despite considerable progress in identifying the roles of individual galectins in tumour biology, an integrated portrait of the galectin network in the prostate cancer tumour microenvironment is lacking," says Gabriel Rabinovich, corresponding author.
