Scientific Data
Galectin‑1 in Mouse Thymus. Galectin‑1 was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse thymus using Goat Anti-Mouse Galectin‑1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1245) at 5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific labeling was localized to the cytoplasm of lymphocytes. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.
Detection of Galectin‑1 in Mouse Splenocytes by Flow Cytometry. Mouse splenocytes were stained with Rat Anti-Mouse CD3 APC-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB4841A) and either (A) Normal Goat IgG Control (Catalog # AB-108-C) or (B) Goat Anti-Mouse Galectin-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1245) followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0107). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with saponin.
Detection of Mouse Galectin‑1 by Simple WesternTM. Simple Western lane view shows lysates of L6 rat myoblast cell line, C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line, THP‑1 human acute monocytic leukemia cell line and Neuro‑2A mouse neuroblastoma cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Galectin‑1 at approximately 18 kDa (as indicated) using 5 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Galectin‑1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1245). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230kDa separation system.
Detection of Mouse Galectin‑1 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of THP‑1 human acute monocytic leukemia cell line, L6 rat myoblast cell line, C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line, Neuro‑2A mouse neuroblastoma cell line and Mouse Thymus. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Galectin‑1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1245) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for Galectin‑1 at approximately 14 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.

Background: Galectin-1
The galectins constitute a large family of carbohydrate-binding proteins with specificity for N-acetyl-lactosamine-containing glycoproteins. At least 14 mammalian galectins, which share structural similarities in their carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD), have been identified to date. The galectins have been classified into the prototype galectins (-1, -2, -5, -7, -10, -11, -13, -14), which contain one CRD and exist either as a monomer or a noncovalent homodimer; the chimera galectins (Galectin-3) containing one CRD linked to a nonlectin domain; and the tandem-repeat galectins (-4, -6, -8, -9, -12) consisting of two CRDs joined by a linker peptide. Galectins lack a classical signal peptide and can be localized to the cytosolic compartments where they have intracellular functions. However, via one or more as yet unidentified non-classical secretory pathways, galectins can also be secreted to function extracellularly. Individual members of the galectin family have different tissue distribution profiles and exhibit subtle differences in their carbohydrate-binding specificities. Each family member may preferentially bind to a unique subset of cell-surface glycoproteins (1-4).
Mouse Galectin-1, also known as beta-galactoside-binding lectin L-14-I, lactose-binding lectin 1, S-Lac lectin 1, galaptin and 14 kDa lectin, is a monomeric or homodimeric prototype galectin that is expressed in a variety of cells and tissues including muscle, heart, lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, macrophages, B cells, T cells, dendritic cells, and tumor cells. It preferentially binds laminin, fibronectin, 90K/Mac-2BP, CD45, CD43, CD7, CD2, CD3, and ganglioside GM1. Galectin-1 modulates cell growth, proliferation and differentiation, either positively or negatively, depending on the cell type and activation status. It controls cell survival by inducing apoptosis of activated T cells and immature thymocytes. It modulates cytokine secretion by inducing Th2 type cytokines and inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Galectin-1 can also modulate cell-cell as well as cell-matrix interactions and depending on the cell type and developmental stage, promote cell attachment or detachment. Galectin-1 has immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory properties and has been shown to suppress acute and chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. Mouse and human Galectin-1 share about 88% amino acid sequence similarity (1-5).
