Galectin-9 (LGALS9)
Galectin-9 is a sugar-binding protein that presses TIM-3 on T cells and can kill the helper T cells that carry it. Tumour blood vessels make more of it than normal ones. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
A tandem-repeat galectin; one of two TIM-3 ligands in this map, with CEACAM1.
- Leukocytes and lymphatic tissue; tumour endothelium (UniProt O00182)
