Galectin-3 captures interferon-gamma in the tumor matrix reducing chemokine gradient production and T-cell tumor infiltration

Most tumours are poorly infiltrated by T cells. Here the authors show that galectin-3 secreted by tumours binds both glycosylated IFNγ and glycoproteins of the tumour extracellular matrix, thus avoiding IFNγ diffusion and the formation of an IFNγ-induced chemokine gradient required for T cell infilt...
