As shown in Fig. 4A,B, after infection of the Gal-3 Lentiviral Activation Particle and induction for differentiation for 6 days, the protein and mRNA expression levels of Gal-3 was significantly elevated as compared to differentiated adipocytes left uninfected or infected with control lentivirus (p < 0.05). Here, LGALS3 is linked to infection.
