It was inspired by topics discussed at the symposium ""Galectins: Structures, Functions, and Therapeutic Targets"" that was a part of the 234th American Chemical Society meeting in 2007. To help chemists, biochemists, and others understand the challenges inherent in the study of galectins and build on recent advances in the field, the editors have compiled articles from leading experts on galectins and their biomedical applications. 606 $aLectins 606 $aGalactose 615 0$aLectins. 615 0$aGalactose. 676 $a572/.69 701 $aKlesov$b A.
