SERUM GALECTIN-3 IN PORTAL HYPERTENSION DUE TO NONALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS (NASH) (AASLD 2023)
Serum galectin-3 might not be a useful biomarker of disease activity in NASH, particularly in compensated cirrhosis with portal hypertension. As in the oncology setting, intra-tissular galectin-3 might be a more relevant biomarker of disease activity and a predictor of response to galectin-3 inhibitor treatment2. 1 Goodman, et al.

Enhancing clinical and immunological effects of anti-PD-1 with belapectin, a galectin-3 inhibitor. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
Belapectin+pembrolizumab therapy has activity in MM and HNSCC. Increased Gal-3 expression, expansion of effector memory T cells, and decreased M-MDSCs correlated with clinical response. Further investigation is planned.
