Thwarting galectin-induced immunosuppression in breast cancer

Novel therapeutic strategies are needed to counteract breast cancer-associated immunosuppression. Silencing the expression of galectin-1 in a breast carcinoma model inhibited tumor growth and prevented lung metastasis by reducing the frequency and immunosuppressive activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) FOXP3(+)...

Sumario:Novel therapeutic strategies are needed to counteract breast cancer-associated immunosuppression. Silencing the expression of galectin-1 in a breast carcinoma model inhibited tumor growth and prevented lung metastasis by reducing the frequency and immunosuppressive activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) FOXP3(+) regulatory T cells.
