Figure 10. Schematic of the endocytic pathways of Gal-3 in endothelial cells.

Figure 10

(i) Gal-3 bound with the glycol-ligand on the plasma membrane (PM); (ii) Gal-3 was endocytosed and transported to the early/recycling endosomes (EE/RE); (iii) A fraction of the endocytic Gal-3 was recycled to the PM and then released into the medium; (vi) A fraction of the endocytic Gal-3 was transported to late endosome/lysosomes (LE/lysosomes).
