From: Senescent mesenchymal stem cells promote colorectal cancer cells growth via galectin-3 expression
Galectin-3 is an important mediator of P30-MSC–mediated stimulation of LoVo cell growth. (a) Proliferation of LoVo cells incubated with 50 or 100 ng/ml recombinant galectin-3. (b) Proliferation of LoVo cells incubated with CM of P30-MSCs, which treated with galectin-3 siRNA or NC. Control, normal DMEM without cell medium; siGal-3, galectin-3 siRNA; rgalectin-3, recombinant galectin-3. All experiments were repeated at least three times. *P < 0.05,**P < 0.01 versus control; ## P < 0.01, versus siGAL-3
