1.	Ganglion Cysts (Ganglion) 12/01/1995 - "In addition, after splanchnicotomy most ganglion neurons expressed galanin and galanin message-associated peptide immunoreactivities which could not be observed in control adrenals. "
2.	Neuralgia (Stump Neuralgia) 01/01/1999 - "These results support the hypothesis that leukemia inhibitory factor is an important regulator of galanin/galanin message-associated peptide expression following axotomy, and may therefore be involved in the defence mechanisms against neuropathic pain at the level of dorsal root ganglion neurons."
3.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 04/01/1998 - "The GALN gene encodes the preprogalanin protein that is cleaved to liberate the galanin peptide, a neuropeptide and tumor cell mitogen, and the galanin message-associated peptide, which is of unknown function. "
