HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Definition:An increased circulation of galectin-3 in the blood circulation.
Comment:Galectin-3 is a member of the family of beta-galactoside-binding endogenous lectins. It is a multifunctional factor that binds to distinct ligands and triggers production of matrix metalloproteinases, and thereby plays a role in cardiac fibrosis and remodeling.
