半乳凝素-3(Galectin-3)是半乳凝素家族成员之一,其可与细胞内糖蛋白、细胞表面分子以及细胞外基质作用,参与细胞黏附、增殖、凋亡等,介导许多炎症性疾病的免疫应答状态。近年来,Galectin-3与支气管哮喘的关系受到越来越多的关注,现就Galectin-3的生物学特点及其在支气管哮喘发 Galectin-3, a member of the galectin family, can interact with intracellular glycoproteins, cell surface molecules, and extracellular matrix, and is involved in cell adhesion, proliferation and apoptosis Many inflammatory diseases immune response status. In recent years, the relationship between Galectin-3 and bronchial asthma is receiving more and more attention. The biological characteristics of Galectin-3 and its role in bronchial asthma
