Target Details for Galectin 9

Target: Galectin 9 (LGALS9) (Lectin, Galactoside-Binding, Soluble, 9 (LGALS9))

Alternative Name: Galectin-9

Background: Galectin 9,Galectin-9 is a glycan-binding protein, which is expressed in three main isoforms of 49 aa, 27 aa, and 15 aa. It can be detected on the cell surface, as well as intracellularly, or in a secreted form. On the cell surface, galectin-9 plays roles in contacts with other cells and with extracellular matrix. It is expressed on multiple cell types, but mainly on Treg cells, activated Th cells and some cancers. Its secreted form acts like a cytokine with immunomodulatory and immunosuppresive functions. Massive and inadequate production of galectin-9, associated with some viral infections or cancers, can counteract immune reactions to these illnesses. High levels of galectin-9 expression lead to poor prognosis of cancer patients.,HUAT, LGalS9A, LEG9
