Because N-glycan sialylation catalyzed by the enzyme ST6Gal1 can regulate Galectin cell-surface binding, we also compared the ability of BCP-ALL wild-type and ST6Gal1 knockdown cells to resist vincristine treatment when they were co-cultured with Galectin-1 or Galectin-3 knockout stromal cells. This evidence concerns the gene LGALS1 and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
