Galectin-3 induced TLR4 signaling activation in lung cancer cells (a) A549 and H1299 cells were transfected with shGal-3 or Gal-3 vector; the protein levels of Galectin-3 and TLR4 were determined using Immunoblotting assays. b-c The proliferation of lung cancer cell was determined using MTT and BrdU assays. d The migration of lung cancer cell was determined using Transwell assays. The data are presented as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, compared to sh-NC or Vector group
