Galectin-3 inhibits the gene expressions for osteoblast differentiation. RNA samples were extracted at 1 week after the addition of recombinant galectin-3 with inducers for osteoblast differentiation. mRNA levels were determined by quantitative real-time PCR. Results are presented as fold changes compared to the sample before confluence. Data represent means ± SD. White bars, culture with vehicle control. Black bars, with galectin-3. *P < .05 versus vehicle control.
