DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2017.02.015
Abstract: Abstract Aberrant neovascularization is a consequence of inappropriate angiogenic signaling and contributes to several diseases. Although many regulators of pathogenic angiogenesis have been identified, the understanding of this process remains incomplete. Galectin‐1 (Gal‐1), as a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.1c01625
Abstract: Galectin-3 (Gal-3) participates in many cancer-related metabolic processes. The inhibition of overexpressed Gal-3 by, e.g., β-galactoside-derived inhibitors is hence promising for cancer treatment. The multivalent presentation of such inhibitors on a suitable biocompatible carrier can… read more here.
