Galectin‐1 ameliorates perioperative neurocognitive disorders in aged mice

Abstract

Our findings provide evidence that galectin-1 may inhibit IRAK1 expression, thus suppressing inflammatory response, inhibiting neuroinflammation, and improving ensuing cognitive dysfunction. Collectively, these findings unveil that galectin-1 may elicit protective effects on surgery-induced neuroinflammation and neurocognitive disorders.
