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
Chemotherapy does not only affect the viability of the tumor cell. It may also cause alterations in normal organs. Thus, tumor-free areas within human lung parenchyma of 63 surgical specimens of intrapulmonary metastases were analyzed to assess the extent of morphologic changes in response to
Selective interplay between proteins and carbohydrates of cellular glycoconjugates offers the potential to mediate physiologically important biorecognition and biosignaling, relevant to metastasis formation. Biotinylated neoglycoproteins were therefore employed as tools to detect endogenous sugar
We have reported an antitumor aqueous extract from a brown marine alga Sargassum kjellmanianum ("Hahakimoku" in Japanese). Although the extract was effective in the in vivo growth inhibition of the implanted Sarcoma-180 cells, it was not effective against L-1210-bearing mice. In the present study,
The predominant surface glycopeptide from a clone of baby hamster kidney cells transformed by Rous sarcoma virus (C13/B4), metabolically labeled with L-[14C]fucose, has been characterized for the first time. This glycopeptide represents 19% of the total radioactivity removed by trypsin from the cell
Comparisons of membrane glycopeptides from baby hamster kidney fibroblasts (BHK21/C13) and a clone transformed by Rous sarcoma virus (C13/B4) were made by using cells metabolically labeled with radioactive D-glucose and L-fucose. Most of the glycopeptides were metabolically labeled with both the
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
