Galaptin-mediated Adhesion of Human Ovarian Carcinoma A121 Cells and Detection of Cellular Galaptin-binding Glycoproteins1
Previously, we have shown that galaptin, an endogenous ß-galactosidebinding lectin, is present in extracellular matrix where it may participate in the adhesion of AI21 human ovarian carcinoma cells to extracellular matrix via interaction with specific cell surface carbohydrate receptors. We now report that A121 cells adhere to polystyrene plates coated with polymerized human splenic galaptin. ...
متن کاملGalaptin-mediated adhesion of human ovarian carcinoma A121 cells and detection of cellular galaptin-binding glycoproteins.
Previously, we have shown that galaptin, an endogenous beta-galactoside-binding lectin, is present in extracellular matrix where it may participate in the adhesion of A121 human ovarian carcinoma cells to extracellular matrix via interaction with specific cell surface carbohydrate receptors. We now report that A121 cells adhere to polystyrene plates coated with polymerized human splenic galapti...
متن کاملPurification and properties of lung lectin. Rat lung and human lung beta-galactoside-binding proteins.
Lung is one of the organs of the rat with a particular abundance of haemagglutinating activity that is inhibited by beta-galactosides. This lectin activity can be attributed to a single protein that has been purified from rat lung; a similar protein has been purified from human lung. The molecular weights and subunit structures were estimated from gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulphate/poly...
متن کاملLectin binding characteristics of mouse placental cells.
The lectin binding characteristics of mouse placental cells were examined. Wax embedded tissue sections of placentae from d 14 pregnant mice were stained with 26 lectins, with a wide range of sugar specificities. Cell cultures prepared from d 14 mouse placentae and cultured for 24 h were stained with 7 of the lectins to determine if they could be used as markers for the different trophoblast ce...
متن کاملLectin-binding characteristics of Wuchereria bancrofti microfilariae.
The binding of 10 different lectins to the surface of microfilariae of Wuchereria bancrofti has been investigated. Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and Helix pomatia lectin (HPA) bound specifically to the sheathed microfilariae indicating the presence of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine respectively on the surface. Exsheathed microfilariae did not react with any of the lectins. Tr...
