- Authors
Pedone, Emilia Maria; Di Gaetano, Sonia; Capasso, Domenica
- Abstract
This document is an editorial from the International Journal of Molecular Sciences that discusses the role of galectins, specifically Gal-1, Gal-3, Gal-4, and Gal-9, in various biological processes and their potential as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets. The editorial includes contributions that explore galectins' involvement in cancer, viral infections, neurodegenerative disorders, heart failure, and cardiovascular events. The studies highlight the complex functions of galectins and their potential implications for disease progression and treatment. The editorial emphasizes the need for further research to fully understand the clinical applications and therapeutic strategies related to galectins.
