IHC staining of Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-Galectin-7 antibody (clone A18059A) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human skin tissue. Following antigen retrieval using sodium citrate H.I.E.R., the tissue was incubated with 0.5 µg/mL of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI. The image was captured with a 40X objective. Scale bar: 50 µm

Description

The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Galectin-7 is specifically expressed in stratified epithelia and epidermis, but barely detected in epidermal tumors and absent from squamous carcinoma cell lines. Galectin-7 is a p53-induced protein and is abnormally expressed in variety of tumors such as melanoma, lung cancer and colon cancer. In UVB-induced sunburn keratinocytes, the expression of Galectin-7 is markedly increased due to the genotoxic stress-induced p53 activation. Both positive and negative regulatory roles of Galectin-7 have been reported in tumorigenesis.
