M1606B04_PURE_Mac-2_Galectin-3_Antibody_WB_062918
Cell lysate from HepG2 (lane 1), A549 (lane 2), PC3 (lane 3), HaCaT (lane 4), MCF-7 (lane 5), HeLa (lane 6) and NIH3T3 cell lines (lane 7) (15 µg protein for each) were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with 1 µg/mL (1:500 dilution) of purified anti-Mac-2 (Galectin-3) antibody (clone M1606B04) (upper). Proteins were visualized using chemiluminescence detection after incubation with a 1:3000 dilution of HRP conjugated anti-rat-IgG secondary antibody for the anti-Mac-2 (Galectin-3) antibody (upper panel) or a 1:5000 dilution of Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-β-Actin (clone 2F1-1, lower panel) antibody.

Description

Galectin-3 (galactose-specific lectin 3) is a unique member of the β-galactoside-binding lectin family molecule, which plays an important role in regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and tumor cell metastasis. Galectin-3 is mainly found in the cytoplasm, but it is also seen in the nucleus and can be secreted by the non-classical, secretory pathway. In general, secreted galectin-3 mediates cell migration, cell adhesion, and cell-cell interactions through its high affinity binding with galactose-containing glycoproteins on the cell surface. Cytoplasmic galectin-3 exhibits anti-apoptotic activity and regulates several signal transduction pathways, whereas nuclear galectin-3 has been associated with pre-mRNA splicing and gene expression. Recent studies also indicate the potential role of galectin-3 as a biomarker for acute and chronic heart failure.
