Abstract:
:Galectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins and these have very high affinity for β-galactoside containing glycoproteins and glycolipids. Amongst sixteen types of galectin, the role of galectin 1, 3, 9 and 12 is defined in the development and progression of different types of leukemia including acute myeloid leukemia, acute promyelocytic leukemia, B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia, adult T cell leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. There are multiple mechanisms through which these galectins may affect tumor proliferation. These may include increased production of tumor resistance conferring proteins such as multidrug resistance (MDR-1) and myeloid cell leukemia (MCL-1). Moreover, galectin-9 may act on Tim-3 receptors present on the circulating CD8+ T cells to impair immune system function and the latter provide an ideal environment for the proliferation of leukemic cells. The present review describes the role and mechanisms involved in galectin-mediated development and progression of different types of leukemia.
