The therapeutic potential of galectin-3 inhibition in fibrotic disease

R. J. Slack et al.

Summary: Galectin-3, a beta-galactoside-binding mammalian lectin, plays a crucial role in regulating cellular signaling by prolonging retention time or retarding lateral movement of cell surface receptors in the plasma membrane. It is involved in various cellular functions such as diffusion, compartmentalization, endocytosis, and the functionality of membrane receptors, and has been shown to be pro-fibrotic in multiple models of organ fibrosis. Additionally, there has been a significant increase in scientific literature investigating the role of Galectin-3 in fibrotic diseases and the clinical development of new Galectin-3 inhibitors over the past decade.

Molecular mechanism of interspecies differences in the binding affinity of TD139 to Galectin-3

Amit Kumar et al.

Summary: The study finds that there is a difference in the binding affinity of TD139 with Gal-3 between human and rodents, and mutating A146 and V160A can alter their affinity levels respectively.
