Repeated administration of the hepatic lectin blocking agents D-galactose or arabinogalactan completely prevented the settling of metastatic cells of sarcoma L-1 tumor in the liver of Balb/c mice and greatly reduced the colonization process of highly metastatic ESb lymphoma cells of the liver of
According to our hypothesis, organ-specific lectins (e.g., the D-galactose-specific hepatic binding protein) play an important role in the organ location of metastatic malignant cells. The rapid clearance and uptake by the liver of tritiated alpha 1-acid-(asialo)glycoprotein from the circulation of
UDP-D-galactose: 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl 4-beta-D-galactosyltransferase (GalTase) activity was purified, from primary chick embryo fibroblast (CEF) transformed by a temperature-sensitive, Rous sarcoma virus mutant (CEF-RSV), by chromatography on an affinity resin prepared with
Adhesion and inhibition experiments with pulmonary cells of BALB/c-mouse origin and syngeneic sarcoma L-1 cells indicated that L-fucose specific lectin-like adhesion molecules, presumably situated on pulmonary cell surfaces are (at least partly) responsible for the specificity of this cell-cell
Transformation of NIH Swiss mouse fibroblasts by a murine sarcoma virus was influenced by the type of carbohydrate in the culture medium. Exposure to D-mannose and 2-deoxy-D-glucose caused a reduction in the number of transformed colonies in vitro and tumor formation in vivo. This is a new type of
Lectin binding patterns in ten mouse malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH)-like sarcomas containing eosinophilic globule (EG) cells and in granular metrial gland (GMG) cells of mouse placenta were stained with nine lectins (Con A, LCA, WGA, DBA, SBA, e-PHA, PNA, RCA-I and UEA-I) by an
The metastasis of malignant tumors from a primary site to near and distant secondary sites is probably the most important event in the pathogenesis of cancer and it accounts for most cancer deaths. Whereas advances in the treatment of primary cancer have led to increased patient survival, metastatic
The feasibility of 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-galactose ([ 18F]FdGal) for imaging galactose metabolism in tumors with positron emission tomography (PET), was investigated using two hepatomas, Yoshida sarcoma, or glioma in rats, and mouse mammary carcinoma. In hepatoma-bearing rats the highest uptake of
Quail myoblasts transformed with the temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus (QM-RSV cells) differentiate temperature-sensitively. At 41 degrees C, the cells begin to fuse after about 15-18 h and form multinucleated myotubes, whereas, at 35.5 degrees C, the cells proliferate.
A dimeric lectin, composed of subunits with a molecular weight of 40 and 41 kDa, respectively, and demonstrating similarity in N-terminal sequence to each other and to Aleuria aurantia lectin, was isolated from fresh fruiting bodies of the edible mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus. The lectin was
An agaran-type polysaccharide, GFP08, isolated from Grateloupia filicina (C. Agardh) Lamouroux, was mainly composed of 1,3-linked β-D-galactose partially sulfated at position O-2 and 1,4-linked α-L-galactose O-2, O-3-disulfate, α-L-galactose O-6-sulfate and 3,6-anhydro-α-L-galactose. Small
Mixed membrane vesicles prepared from cultured chick embryo fibroblasts possess a stereospecific D-glucose transport system, the properties of which are identical to those of the system in intact cells. Uptake of D-glucose proceeds without chemical alteration. The rate of stereospecific uptake of
A lectin that agglutinates human blood group B erythrocytes but not blood group A and O erythrocytes was isolated from eggs of Ayu sweet fish (Plecoglossus altivelis). The lectin also agglutinates Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells but not rat ascites hepatoma AH109 or rat sarcoma 150 cells tested. The
Three rhamnose-binding lectins were purified from the roe of Osmerus eperlanus mordax (olive rainbow smelt) by affinity chromatography and ion-exchange chromatography. The apparent molecular weights of Osmerus eperlanus mordax lectin (OML) -1, -2 and -3 were 25000, 32000 and 26000, respectively, on
The effects of monosaccharides on the cytotoxic activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and three cloned long-term cytotoxic T-lymphocyte lines (CTLL) are compared. Uncultured CTL and clones CTLL-A2 and CTLL-A11 were derived from the peritoneal cavity of C57BL/6 mice immunized against the H-2Dd
