Product details

Feline Galectin-3 ELISA Kit (ab273232) is an in-vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of feline Galectin-3 in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.

This assay employs an antibody specific for feline Galectin-3 coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Galectin-3 present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed, and biotinylated anti-feline Galectin-3 antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Galectin-3 bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Galectin-3 also known as LGALS3 is a protein belonging to the galectin family which are beta-galactoside-binding lectins. This protein has a molecular weight of about 30 kDa. It shows expression in various tissues including the heart liver and gastrointestinal tract. Galectin-3 plays a mechanical role in cell-cell adhesion cell-matrix interactions and modulating immune responses. Researchers often use galectin-3 ELISA kits to quantify its presence in different biological samples.
Biological function summary

Galectin-3 participates in cell growth regulation apoptosis and immune system modulation. Galectin-3 does not typically integrate into larger molecular complexes but it interacts with a variety of cell surface and extracellular matrix molecules. Its function influences processes like cell differentiation and angiogenesis where it can act as a regulator leveraging its ability to bind glycans on cell surfaces and matrix components.

Pathways

Galectin-3 contributes to the regulation of pathways such as the MAPK signaling pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway. In the MAPK pathway it influences cell proliferation and survival. Galectin-3 interacts with proteins like β-catenin in the Wnt pathway assisting in transcriptional regulation and cell fate determination. These pathways are vital for maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to extracellular signals.

Galectin-3 has a strong connection to cancer and fibrosis. Its role in cancer involves promoting tumor cell survival metastasis and angiogenesis where it interacts with proteins like integrins to facilitate tumor progression. In fibrosis galectin-3 contributes to fibrotic tissue formation especially in conditions like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and cardiac fibrosis often associated with proteins such as TGF-β. Understanding these interactions helps in developing therapeutic strategies targeting galectin-3 in these diseases.
