Background Information

Galectins are a family of animal lectins defined by shared characteristic amino-acid sequences and affinity for β-galactose-containing oligosac-charides (PMID: 8063692). Galectin-4 contains two arbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) and is expressed in the epithelium of oral mucosa, esophagus, and intestinal and colonic mucosa (PMID: 15546874; 15115909). Aberrant expression of galectin-4 has been reported in several cancers.
