12. The abnormal expression of galectins is known to be linked to the development,
progression and metastasis of cancers. tumor-derived galectins can have bifunctional effects on tumor and
immune cells. This talk focuses on the biological effects of galectin-1, galectin-3 and galectin-9 in various
cancers and discusses anticancer therapies that target these molecules. Siglecs comprise a family of 15 members
of sialic acid-binding receptors. Many Siglecs function as inhibitory receptors on innate and adaptive immune
cells and may contribute to the attenuation of immune responses to tumors. Siglecs are mostly inhibitory
receptors similar to known immune checkpoints including PD-1 or CTLA-4 that are successfully targeted
with blocking antibodies for cancer immunotherapy. The next generation active immune checkpoint control
immunotherapy which based on a Specific Total Immune Remodeler Platform demonstrate the ability to
activate and use the full potential of the patient’s own immune system to eradicate cancer and is able to induce
the killing of tumor target expressing cells by simultaneously activating all possible immunological pathways
(humoral and cellular), thus, succeed in controlling all the relevant immune checkpoints that prevent the
immune system from attacking and defeating cancer.
