Extra Details:
Galectin-3 (GAL3); also known as LGALS3; MAC2 or GALBP; is a member of the lectin family; of which 14 mammalian galectins have been identified. Galectin-3 is encoded by a single gene; LGALS3; located on chromosome 14; locus q21–q22. It is expressed in the nucleus; cytoplasm; mitochondrion; cell surface; and extracellular space. Studies have also shown that the expression of galectin-3 is implicated in a variety of processes associated with heart failure; including myofibroblast proliferation; fibrogenesis; tissue repair; inflammation; and Ventricular remodeling. Galectin-3 is expressed in various tissues and organs; but is significantly absent in normal hepatocytes.
