Autophagy Drives Galectin-1 Secretion From Tumor-Associated Macrophages Facilitating Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression

Galectin-1 (Gal-1) is a secretory lectin with pro-tumor activities and is associated strongly with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. Although Gal-1 is a well-known soluble pro-tumor factor in the tumor microenvironment (TME), the secretion mode of Gal-1 is not clearly defined. On the other...
