Galectin-3 secreted by triple-negative breast cancer cells regulates T cell function by Annat Raiter, Yael Barhum, Julia Lipovetsky, Chen Menachem, Sharona Elgavish, Shmuel Ruppo, Yehudit Birger, Shai Izraeli, Orna Steinberg-Shemer, Rinat Yerushalmi

“…We studied these in an in-vitro model, co-cultured with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to imitate immune-tumor interaction, and in an in-vivo model, when implanted in mice.Gal-3neg tumors in mice had decelerated tumor growth after PBMC inoculation. In contrast, the Gal-3 positive(pos) tumors continued growing despite PBMC inoculation, and tumor T regulatory cell (CD4/FoxP3+) infiltration increased. …”

“…However, microbial cells grown under a phenotype of biofilm can improve biotransformation bioprocesses once they form more biomass per volume, are more resistant to extreme conditions (pH, temperature, and toxic substances), remain active for extended periods, are less prone to cell washouts, and reduce re-inoculation demands, leading to increased production rates due to their unique physiological features. …”
