Fighting Cancer, One Slide at a Time

Gal-9 (Galectin-9) Antibody

The Galectin-9 Antibody (Rabbit Monoclonal) from GeneBioSolution is a high-quality antibody optimized for immunohistochemistry (IHC) on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. Galectin-9 is a tandem-repeat β-galactoside-binding lectin that plays a key role in cell adhesion, apoptosis, immune regulation, and tumor progression. This antibody provides sensitive and specific cytoplasmic staining of Galectin-9 with minimal background, making it a valuable biomarker in both diagnostic pathology and immuno-oncology research. Galectin-9 is highly relevant in studies of immune checkpoint pathways, particularly its interaction with TIM-3, which contributes to T-cell exhaustion in the tumor microenvironment. In cancer pathology, Galectin-9 has been associated with prognosis in solid tumors including breast, lung, liver, and gastric carcinomas, while also serving as a marker of immune modulation and inflammatory response. All GeneBioSolution antibodies undergo rigorous validation and quality control, ensuring lot-to-lot consistency, strong reproducible staining, and compatibility with both manual and automated IHC platforms. Clinical & Research Applications Biomarker for immune checkpoint regulation (Galectin-9/TIM-3 axis) Evaluation of Galectin-9 expression in breast, lung, liver, and gastric cancers Diagnostic and research tool for tumor immune microenvironment studies Research into autoimmune diseases, inflammation, and chronic infection Key Features Type: Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on FFPE tissues Target Protein: Galectin-9 – β-galactoside-binding lectin Diagnostic/Research Utility: Cancer immunology, immune checkpoint studies, inflammation Performance: Strong cytoplasmic staining, high specificity, reproducible results
