Detection of Galectin-3 by Western Blot

FOXD1 is a transcription factor of Gal-3. (A) CL1-0 cells were co-transfected with plasmids of the Gal-3 promoter reporter (pGL3-Gal-3 2000 bp) or Gal-3 promoter mutation reporter (pGL3-Gal-3 2000 bp-mut) and FOXD1 (pFOXD1). The cell lysates were collected, and the promoter activity of Gal-3 was analyzed by luciferase assay. (B) ChIP-qPCR assay using IgG as a control or FOXD1 antibody in CL1-0 and CL1-5 showed the binding of FOXD1 on the Gal-3 promoter. (C) CL1-0 cells transfected with the empty vector or plasmid of FOXD1 (pFOXD1) for 48 h and (D) CL1-5 cells transfected with scramble or siRNA targeting FOXD1 (si-FOXD1) for 72 h were collected. The mRNA and protein levels of FOXD1 and Gal-3 were analyzed by qPCR (left) and immunoblotting (right), respectively. (E) CCK-8 assay in different groups. FOXD1-stimulated CL1-0 proliferation ability was reduced by knocking down Gal-3. (F) The colony-formation ability of FOXD1-stimulated CL1-0 cells was suppressed by the depletion of Gal-3. (G) The numbers of migrating or invading cells were increased in the FOXD1 group compared with the FOXD1-stimulated CL1-0-siGal-3 group and control group.

(A,B) CL1-0 and CL1-5 cells were transfected with the empty vector or plasmid of Gal-3 (pGal-3) for 48 h or scramble and siRNA targeting Gal-3 (si-Gal-3) for 72 h, respectively, as indicated. The mRNA and protein levels of FOXD1 and Gal-3 were analyzed by qPCR and immunoblotting. CL1-5 cells were transfected with scramble and siRNA targeting Gal-3 for 72 h or empty vector or plasmid of Gal-3 for 48 h, respectively, as indicated, and immunoprecipitation was analyzed by immunoblotting. Input, the whole cell lysates. (C) CL1-0 cells were transfected with scramble, Gal-3, ITG beta 1 or si-Gal-3, and si-ITG beta 1 for 72 h, as indicated. Cells lysates were collected and analyzed by immunoblotting.

Detection of Galectin-3 by Western Blot

High FOXD1 and Gal-3 expression are associated with the poor prognosis in lung cancer. (A) The ranking of candidate molecules and the corresponding z-score and p-value using the Ingenuity Pathway Analyses (IPA) database from a microarray experiment performed with CL1-0 FOXD1 compared to CL1-0 vector and CL1-5 scramble compared to CL1-5 siRNA targeting FOXD1 (si-FOXD1) using a 5-fold change cut-off. (B) Statistical p-values and fold change of the expression of Gal-3 (LGALS3) and its relative molecules are shown. Prediction legend: upregulation (red round icon), downregulation (green round icon), predicted activation (brown round icon), predicted inhibition (blue round icon), leads to activation (brown line), leads to inhibition (blue line), findings inconsistent with stage of downstream molecule (yellow line), effect not predicted (gray line). (C) RT-qPCR analysis of Gal-3 and FOXD1 mRNA expression in various lung cancer cell lines. GAPDH was used as an internal control for mRNA loading. (D) Western blot analysis of Gal-3 and FOXD1 protein expression in various lung cancer cell lines. GAPDH was used as an internal control for protein loading. (E) Lung cancer patients with high gene level transcription of Gal-3 or FOXD1 expression level show a correlation with high risk and (F) poor disease-free survival. The data were retrieved and analyzed from the TCGA-LUAD samples (n = 475) and lung meta-base (n = 1044) of the SurvExpress database (http://bioinformatica.mty.itesm.mx:8080/Biomatec/SurvivaX.jsp).

Background: Galectin-3

Galectin-3, also known as Mac-2, L29, CBP35 and epsilon BP, is a member of 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. Galectin-3 is expressed in tumor cells, macrophages, activated T cells, osteoclasts, epithelial cells and fibroblasts.
