From: Induction of galectin-1 expression by HTLV-I Tax and its impact on HTLV-I infectivity
Comparative analysis of extracellular galectin-1 levels between uninfected and chronically HTLV-I-infected cell lines. A2.01, CEM-T4, HSB-2, Jurkat E6.1, Molt-4, PM1, Sup T1, C8166-45, C91-PL, MJ, MT2 and S1T cell lines were cultured for 48 hours starting at a concentration of 5 × 105 cells/ml. The supernatants were then collected, passed through a 0.22 μm filter and analysed for galectin-1 secretion by a galectin-1-specific ELISA as described in Materials and Methods.
