Research context & evidence
Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.
LGALS3 (galectin-3) is a galactose-binding lectin with context-dependent extracellular and intracellular functions, including roles in inflammatory responses, cell adhesion, RNA processing and membrane-damage responses.
LGALS3 is studied in inflammation, fibrosis, immune-cell behaviour, epithelial biology and cancer-related cell adhesion and signalling contexts.
