Abstract excerpt
Galectins are a family of proteins that are involved in various aspects of cancer, including tumor growth, cell migration, invasion, and metastasis. Galectins are subdivided into three families: prototype (such as Gal-1), chimera type (such as Gal-3), and tandem repeat type (such as Gal-9). Despite the evidence linking galectins to the risk of neuroblastoma (NB), the causal association between galectins and NB...
