1 The antimetastatic effect of a single low dose of cyclophosphamide involves modulation of galectin-1 and Bcl-2 expression. Cyclophosphamide galectin 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Since galectin-1 is expressed by highly metastatic tumors, in the present study we investigated the participation of this beta-galactoside-binding protein in cyclophosphamide-induced immunomodulation. Cyclophosphamide galectin 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 Expression of galectin-1 was significantly decreased in tumors from cyclophosphamide-treated rats compared to non-treated rats. Cyclophosphamide galectin 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 Our results suggest that a single low dose of cyclophosphamide modulates the expression of galectin-1 and Bcl-2 by tumors, which could in turn influence the apoptotic threshold of spleen mononuclear cells. Cyclophosphamide galectin 1 Rattus norvegicus
