Galectin-1 (Gal-1) is a 14.5 kDa protein which controls the process of transmigration of leukocytes, cytokine release and degranulation of mast cells, contributing to the homeostasis of the inflammatory reaction. However, the expression of Gal-1 in normal and inflamed ocular tissues has been little studied. In this study we will evaluate the expression and mechanism of action of Gal-1 in …
