Systems-level effects of ectopic galectin-7 reconstitution in cervical cancer and its microenvironment

摘要

BackgroundGalectin-7 (Gal-7) is negatively regulated in cervical cancer, and appears to be a link between the apoptotic response triggered by cancer and the anti-tumoral activity of the immune system. Our understanding of how cervical cancer cells and their molecular networks adapt in response to the expression of Gal-7 remains limited.
