Galectin-1 promotes vasculogenic mimicry in gastric adenocarcinoma via the Hedgehog/GLI signaling pathway
Figure 8. GAL-1 increases VM through the Hh signaling pathway. (A) Matrigel three-dimensional culture indicating that OE-LGALS1 efficiently increased tube-formation by MGC-803 cells and AGS cells, and the inhibition of this effect by GANT61. (B) sh-LGALS1 reduces the ability of MGC-803 cells and AGS cells to form tube-like structures. Simultaneous silencing of LGALS1 and overexpression of GLI1 rescued this reduction in tube-formation capacity. (×40 magnification; n=3).
