Galectins: emerging regulatory checkpoints linking tumor immunity and angiogenesis

Highlights • Galectins engage a number of glycosylated immune checkpoint receptors. • Galectins alter T-cell and NK-cell activation, signaling and survival. • Galectins endow myeloid cells with immune regulatory potential. • Glycosylation-dependent galectin–receptor interactions control angiogenesis...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Galectins engage a number of glycosylated immune checkpoint receptors. • Galectins alter T-cell and NK-cell activation, signaling and survival. • Galectins endow myeloid cells with immune regulatory potential. • Glycosylation-dependent galectin–receptor interactions control angiogenesis. • Galectin–glycan interactions confer resistance to anti-cancer therapies.
