あらすじ・解説
In this bonus episode, Dr. Joel Kahn sits down with Dr. Isaac Eliaz, a renowned clinician and researcher based in California, to discuss Galectin-3 and its critical role in heart health. The conversation kicks off with a brief Hebrew exchange between Dr. Kahn and Dr. Eliaz, who hails from Israel, before diving into the science behind Galectin-3.
Galectin-3 is a regulatory protein heavily involved in chronic inflammation and has been linked to the development of numerous conditions, including heart disease. Elevated levels of Galectin-3 are often observed in both acute and chronic heart failure, playing a pivotal role in the inflammatory pathways that lead to myocardial tissue remodeling after injury.
At the Kahn Center, Galectin-3 blood levels are routinely measured as part of our comprehensive approach to heart health. Tune in to learn more about how this protein impacts the heart and the latest insights into managing inflammation to protect cardiovascular health.
