Background of Lgals1
Galectin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGALS1 gene. The galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding proteins implicated in modulating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Galectin-1 may act as an autocrine negative growth factor that regulates cell proliferation. Galectin-1 expression in Hodgkin Lymphoma has also been shown to mediate immunosuppression of CD8+ T-cells. It is thought to play a role in creating immune tolerance in pregnancy. It has been found that Galectin-1-mediated production of IL6 may assist in augmenting the innate immune response against NiV. Galectin-1 may also be a significant factor that augments the efficiency of the HIV-1 infection process.

Western blot analysis of Galectin 1 using anti-Galectin 1 antibody (A00470).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 13% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human A549 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human A375 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human MCF-7 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 6: rat PC-12 whole cell lysates,
Lane 7: mouse kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 8: mouse NIH/3T3 whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Galectin 1 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (A00470) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Galectin 1 at approximately 15 kDa. The expected band size for Galectin 1 is at 15 kDa.

IHC analysis of Galectin 1 using anti-Galectin 1 antibody (A00470).
Galectin 1 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human colon cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 μg/ml rabbit anti-Galectin 1 Antibody (A00470) overnight at 4°C. Peroxidase Conjugated Goat Anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using HRP Conjugated Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit (Catalog # SV0002) with DAB as the chromogen.

Question
My colleagues were content with the WB result of your anti-Galectin 1/Lgals1 antibody. However we have been able to see positive staining in placenta skin extracellular space using this antibody. Is that expected? Could you tell me where is LGALS1 supposed to be expressed?

Question
We ordered your anti-Galectin 1/Lgals1 antibody for WB on liver in a previous project. I am using mouse, and We are going to use the antibody for IHC next. I am interested in examining liver as well as spleen in our next experiment. Could give a recommendation on which antibody would work the best for IHC?

Asked: 2017-10-30
Answer
I have checked the website and datasheets of our anti-Galectin 1/Lgals1 antibody and I see that A00470 has been validated on mouse in both WB and IHC. Thus A00470 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for IHC in mouse even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for IHC detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.

Question
We are currently using anti-Galectin 1/Lgals1 antibody A00470 for rat tissue, and we are happy with the IHC results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says mouse, rat. Is it likely that the antibody can work on dog tissues as well?
D. Singh
Verified customer
Asked: 2015-04-01
Answer
The anti-Galectin 1/Lgals1 antibody (A00470) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
