Comparison of Serum Galectin Levels of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with KIT and PTEN Mutations in Tumor Sample. (A) Serum levels of galectin-1, as determined by ELISA, were significantly higher in non-small cell lung cancer patients with a mutation in the KIT gene. (B,C) Serum levels of galectins -1, and -7 were elevated in patients with a mutation in the PTEN gene. (* p-value ≤ 0.05, ** ≤ 0.01).
