Recombinant Paralichthys olivaceus Galectin 1 also showed the ability to neutralize lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) and exert anti-inflammatory activity during infection with LCDV, but the lower expression of proinflammatory genes could be a consequence of lower viral replication in fish treated with the recombinant protein (93). The gene discussed is LGALS1; the disease is infection.
