Gangliosides were isolated from Trypanosoma brucei and analyzed by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and TLC immunostaining test. Four species of gangliosides, designated as G-1, G-2, G-3, and G-4, were separated by TLC. G-1 ganglioside had the same TLC migration rate as GM3. In contrast, G-2, G-3, and G-4 gangliosides migrated a little slower than GM1, GD1a, and GD1b, respectively. To characterize the molecular species of gangliosides from T. brucei, G-1, G-2, G-3, and G-4 gangliosides were purified and analyzed by TLC immunostaining test with monoclonal antibodies against gangliosides. G-1 ganglioside showed the reactivity to the monoclonal antibody against ganglioside GM3. G-2 was recognized by the anti-GM1 monoclonal antibody. G-3 showed reaction with the monoclonal antibody to GD1a. G-4 had the reactivity to anti-GD1b monoclonal antibody. Using 4 kinds of monoclonal antibodies, we also studied the expression of GM3, GM1, GD1a, and GD1b in T. brucei parasites. GM3, GM1, GD1a, and GD1b were detected on the cell surface of T. brucei. These results suggest that G-1, G-2, G-3, and G-4 gangliosides are GM3 (NeuAc alpha2-3Gal beta1-4Glc beta1-1Cer), GM1 (Gal beta1-3GalNAc beta1-4[NeuAc alpha2-3]Gal beta1-4Glc beta1-1Cer), GD1a (NeuAc alpha2-3Gal beta1-3GalNAc beta1-4[NeuAc alpha2-3]Gal beta1-4Glc beta1-1Cer), and GD1b (Gal beta1-3GalNAc beta1-4[NeuAc alpha2-8NeuAc alpha2-3]Gal beta1-4Glc beta1-1Cer), respectively, and also that they are expressed on the cell surface of T. brucei. 相似文献

A sensitive assay system for receptor activity of gangliosides to paramyxovirus was developed. This system involves incorporation of gangliosides into neuraminidase-treated chicken erythrocytes (asialoerythrocytes) followed by estimation of virus-mediated agglutination and hemolysis. The asialoerythrocytes coated with I-active ganglioside (Sia alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3(Gal alpha 1-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-6)Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-Cer) were effectively agglutinated by hemagglutinating virus of Japan (HVJ, Sendai virus). The hemolysis of the asialoerythrocytes mediated by HVJ was restored to the highest level by labeling the cells with gangliosides possessing lacto-series oligosaccharide chains, i.e., I-active ganglioside, N-acetylneuraminosylparagloboside (SiaPG(NeuAc)), and i-active ganglioside (Sia alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-Cer). The specific receptor activity of ganglioside GD1a possessing a gangliotetraose chain was lower than those of the gangliosides described above. Gangliosides GM3, GD3, GM1a, GD1b, SiaPG(NeuGc) showed little effect on the restoration of HVJ-mediated hemolysis. On infection with Newcastle disease virus (NDV), the highest specific restoration of lysis was found in chicken asialoerythrocytes coated with SiaPG(NeuAc or NeuGc) and GM3(NeuAc or NeuGc), whereas those coated with I-active ganglioside, GD3, GM1a, and GD1b showed very low NDV-mediated hemolysis. The above results indicate that the determinants of receptor for HVJ contain sialylated branched and/or linear lacto-series oligosaccharides carried by I,i-active gangliosides and SiaPG(NeuAc) and sialosylgangliotetraose chain carried by GD1a. The determinants for NDV are carried by SiaPG(NeuAc or NeuGc) containing linear lacto-series oligosaccharide and GM3(NeuAc or NeuGc). The absence of detectable binding of free oligosaccharides obtained from I-active ganglioside and sialoglycoprotein GP-2 isolated from bovine erythrocyte membranes as HVJ receptor (Suzuki, Y., et al. J. Biochem. (1983) 93, 1621-1633; (1984) 95, 1193-1200) indicates that HVJ recognizes the sialooligosaccharides oriented out of the lipid bilayer in the cell membranes where the hydrophobic ceramide or peptide backbone of the receptor is integrated. 相似文献

The thermotropic behavior of the natural glycosphingolipids galactosylceramide, asialo-Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-4Glc beta 1-Cer (GM1), sulfatide, GM1, NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer (GD1a), and NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc8-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1 Cer (GT1b), and their mixtures with dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) in the presence of myelin basic protein (MBP) was studied by high sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry. The transition temperature of DPPC, galactosylceramide, and asialo-GM1 is affected little by MBP while their transition enthalpy is decreased in proportion to the amount of protein in the mixture. The thermotropic behavior of anionic glycosphingolipids is considerably perturbed by MBP. The transition temperature of gangliosides increases in the presence of MBP, whereas that of sulfatide decreases. The enthalpy of the transition of anionic glycosphingolipids increases markedly in the presence of MBP. The excess heat capacity function of these systems can be resolved into two independent phase transitions. Phase separation of enriched lipid/protein domains occurs in a magnitude that depends on the amount of MBP; the rest of the lipid phase exhibits some altered thermodynamic properties. In mixtures of glycosphingolipids with DPPC, phase separation is also present but no phase transition with the characteristic of pure DPPC is found. MBP is changing the properties of the lipid mixture as a whole and does not interact exclusively with the glycosphingolipids. The proportion of MBP required to produce the maximal changes is greater the greater the complexity of the glycosphingolipids polar head group. Relatively small variations of the amount of MBP induce large shifts in the proportion of the different phases present. 相似文献

Four kinds of anti-GD3 monoclonal antibodies, DSG-1, -2, -3, and -4, of the IgM class were obtained by the immunization of BALB/c mice with enzootic bovine leukosis tumor tissue-derived ganglioside GD3 inserted into liposomes with Salmonella minnesota R595 lipopolysaccharides. The specificities of the monoclonal antibodies obtained were defined by complement-dependent liposome immune lysis assay and by enzyme immunostaining on thin-layer chromatography. The reactivities of the monoclonal antibodies obtained to four ganglioside GD3 variants [GD3(NeuAc-NeuAc), GD3(NeuAc-NeuGc), GD3(NeuGc-NeuAc), and GD3(NeuGc-NeuGc)] were tested. All of the monoclonal antibodies were found to react with GD3(NeuAc-NeuAc) and GD3(NeuAc-NeuGc) but not with GD3(NeuGc-NeuAc) or GD3(NeuGc-NeuGc). Furthermore, various purified glycosphingolipids were used to determine the specificity of these monoclonal antibodies. All 4 antibodies reacted only with ganglioside GD3 [GD3(NeuAc-NeuAc) and GD3(NeuAc-NeuGc)], but not with several gangliosides linking the GalNAc, Gal beta 1-3GalNAc, NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc, or NeuAc alpha 2-8NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc residue to the Gal moiety of ganglioside GD3 (GD2, GD1b, GT1b, or GQ1b, respectively), ganglioside GT1a having the same terminal NeuAc alpha 2-8NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal residue as ganglioside GD3, other gangliosides, and neutral glycosphingolipids. These findings suggest that the 4 monoclonal antibodies obtained may be specific for the epitope of NeuAc-alpha 2-8Sia alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4Glc residue of ganglioside GD3. 相似文献

Extended glycoconjugate binding specificities of three sialic acid-dependent immunoglobulin-like family member lectins (siglecs), myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG), Schwann cell myelin protein (SMP), and sialoadhesin, were compared by measuring siglec-mediated cell adhesion to immobilized gangliosides. Synthetic gangliosides bearing the alpha-series determinant (NeuAc alpha2,6-linked to GalNAc on a gangliotetraose core) were tested, including GD1alpha (IV(3)NeuAc, III(6)NeuAc-Gg(4)OseCer), GD1alpha with modified sialic acid residues at the III(6)-position, and the "Chol-1" gangliosides GT1aalpha (IV(3)NeuAc, III(6)NeuAc, II(3)NeuAc-Gg(4)OseCer) and GQ1balpha (IV(3)NeuAc, III(6)NeuAc, II(3)(NeuAc)(2)-Gg(4)OseCer). The alpha-series gangliosides displayed enhanced potency for MAG- and SMP-mediated cell adhesion (GQ1balpha > GT1aalpha, GD1alpha > GT1b, GD1a > GM1 (nonbinding)), whereas sialoadhesin-mediated adhesion was comparable with alpha-series and non-alpha-series gangliosides. GD1alpha derivatives with modified sialic acids (7-, 8-, or 9-deoxy) or sulfate (instead of sialic acid) at the III(6)-position supported adhesion comparable with that of GD1alpha. Notably, a novel GT1aalpha analog with sulfates at two internal sites of sialylation (NeuAcalpha2,3Galbeta1,4GalNAc-6-sulfatebeta1, 4Gal3-sulfatebeta1,4Glcbeta1,1'ceramide) was the most potent siglec-binding structure tested to date (10-fold more potent than GT1aalpha in supporting MAG and SMP binding). Together with prior studies, these data indicate that MAG and SMP display an extended structural specificity with a requirement for a terminal alpha2, 3-linked NeuAc and great enhancement by nearby precisely spaced anionic charges. 相似文献

We analyzed glycosphingolipids from normal lymph node cells of seven cattle and lymph node cells of eight cattle with enzootic bovine leukosis. The neutral glycosphingolipids and gangliosides were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography. Both normal and tumorous lymph node cells had GlcCer, LacCer, and GbOse3Cer as major neutral glycosphingolipids. In the ganglioside fraction, GM3 was the predominant component in both normal and tumorous lymph node cells, and another component, ganglioside Gx fraction, was also prominent in tumorous lymph node cells. The structure of this ganglioside Gx fraction was elucidated by thin-layer chromatography, sugar analysis, neuraminidase digestion, and permethylation studies. This ganglioside Gx fraction was found to be a mixture of four ganglioside species. The structures of individual gangliosides Gx (1 to 4) were characterized as follows. 1: GD3, NeuAc alpha 2-8NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer. 2: GD3, NeuAc alpha 2-8NeuGc alpha 2-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer. 3: GD3, NeuGc alpha 2-8NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal1-Glc-Cer. 4: GD3, NeuGc alpha 2-8NeuGc alpha 2-3Gal1-4Glc-Cer. These GD3 species may be formed as a result of the induced synthesis inassociation with malignant transformation. 相似文献

Gangliosides, sialic acid-bearing glycosphingolipids, are expressed at high abundance and complexity in the brain. Altered ganglioside expression results in neural disorders, including seizures and axon degeneration. Brain gangliosides function, in part, by interacting with a ganglioside-binding lectin, myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG). MAG, on the innermost wrap of the myelin sheath, binds to gangliosides GD1a and GT1b on axons. MAG-ganglioside binding ensures optimal axon-myelin cell-cell interactions, enhances long-term axon-myelin stability and inhibits axon outgrowth after injury. Knowledge of the molecular interactions of brain gangliosides may improve understanding of axon-myelin stability and provide opportunities to enhance recovery after nerve injury. 相似文献

Potent glycan inhibitors of myelin-associated glycoprotein enhance axon outgrowth in vitro 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG, Siglec-4) is one of several endogenous axon regeneration inhibitors that limit recovery from central nervous system injury and disease. Molecules that block such inhibitors may enhance axon regeneration and functional recovery. MAG, a member of the Siglec family of sialic acid-binding lectins, binds to sialoglycoconjugates on axons and particularly to gangliosides GD1a and GT1b, which may mediate some of the inhibitory effects of MAG. In a prior study, we identified potent monovalent sialoside inhibitors of MAG using a novel screening platform. In the current study, the most potent of these were tested for their ability to reverse MAG-mediated inhibition of axon outgrowth from rat cerebellar granule neurons in vitro. Monovalent sialoglycans enhanced axon regeneration in proportion to their MAG binding affinities. The most potent glycoside was disialyl T antigen (NeuAcalpha2-3Galbeta1-3[NeuAcalpha2-6]GalNAc-R), followed by 3-sialyl T antigen (NeuAcalpha2-3Galbeta1-3GalNAc-R), structures expressed on O-linked glycoproteins as well as on gangliosides. Prior studies indicated that blocking gangliosides reversed MAG inhibition. In the current study, blocking O-linked glycoprotein sialylation with benzyl-alpha-GalNAc had no effect. The ability to reverse MAG inhibition with monovalent glycosides encourages further exploration of glycans and glycan mimetics as blockers of MAG-mediated axon outgrowth inhibition. 相似文献

Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG, Siglec-4) is a quantitatively minor membrane component expressed preferentially on the innermost myelin wrap, adjacent to the axon. It stabilizes myelin-axon interactions by binding to complementary ligands on the axolemma. MAG, a member of the Siglec family of sialic acid-binding lectins, binds specifically to gangliosides GD1a and GT1b, which are the major sialoglycoconjugates on mammalian axons. Mice with a disrupted Galgt1 gene lack UDP-GalNAc:GM3/GD3 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GM2/GD2 synthase) and fail to express complex brain gangliosides, including GD1a and GT1b, instead expressing a comparable amount of the simpler gangliosides GM3, GD3, and O-acetyl-GD3. Galgt1-null mice produce similar amounts of total myelin compared to wild-type mice, but as the mice age, they exhibit axon degeneration and dysmyelination with accompanying motor behavioral deficits. Here we report that Galgt1-null mice display progressive and selective loss of MAG from the brain. At 1.5 months of age, MAG expression was similar in Galgt1-null and wild-type mice. However, by 6 months of age MAG was decreased approximately 60% and at 12 months of age approximately 70% in Galgt1-null mice compared to wild-type littermates. Expression of the major myelin proteins (myelin basic protein and proteolipid protein) was not reduced in Galgt1-null mice compared to wild type. MAG mRNA expression was the same in 12-month-old Galgt1-null compared to wild-type mice, an age at which MAG protein expression was markedly reduced. We conclude that the maintenance of MAG protein levels depends on the presence of complex gangliosides, perhaps due to enhanced stability when MAG on myelin binds to its complementary ligands, GD1a and GT1b, on the apposing axon surface. 相似文献

Six major acidic glycosphingolipids were isolated from human amnion using DEAE Sephadex A-25 and silica beads column chromatography. The structures of these glycosphingolipids were determined by methylation analysis, TLC immunostaining and/or negative ion FAB-MS, and were concluded to be II3 alpha NeuAcLacCer(GM3), IV3 alpha NeuAcnLc4-Cer (sialyl[alpha 2-3]paragloboside), IV6 alpha NeuAcnLc4Cer (sialyl[alpha 2-6]paragloboside), IV3 alpha NeuAcIII4 alpha FucLc4Cer (sialyl Lea), VI3 alpha NeuAcnLc6Cer (i-ganglioside) and II3 alpha (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc)LacCer (GD3). In addition, several minor glycosphingolipids were detected with specific monoclonal antibodies, including glycolipids with NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc-beta 1- or NeuAc alpha 2-6Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1- determinant. Our results show that the glycosphingolipids of human amnion are characterized by having mainly type II chain analogues and onco-fetal antigens. 相似文献

Gangliosides and Nogo receptors independently mediate myelin-associated glycoprotein inhibition of neurite outgrowth in different nerve cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In the injured nervous system, myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) on residual myelin binds to receptors on axons, inhibits axon outgrowth, and limits functional recovery. Conflicting reports identify gangliosides (GD1a and GT1b) and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored Nogo receptors (NgRs) as exclusive axonal receptors for MAG. We used enzymes and pharmacological agents to distinguish the relative roles of gangliosides and NgRs in MAG-mediated inhibition of neurite outgrowth from three nerve cell types, dorsal root ganglion neurons (DRGNs), cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs), and hippocampal neurons. Primary rat neurons were cultured on control substrata and substrata adsorbed with full-length native MAG extracted from purified myelin. The receptors responsible for MAG inhibition of neurite outgrowth varied with nerve cell type. In DRGNs, most of the MAG inhibition was via NgRs, evidenced by reversal of inhibition by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), which cleaves glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchors, or by NEP1-40, a peptide inhibitor of NgR. A smaller percentage of MAG inhibition of DRGN outgrowth was via gangliosides, evidenced by partial reversal by addition of sialidase to cleave GD1a and GT1b or by P4, an inhibitor of ganglioside biosynthesis. Combining either PI-PLC and sialidase or NEP1-40 and P4 was additive. In contrast to DRGNs, in CGNs MAG inhibition was exclusively via gangliosides, whereas inhibition of hippocampal neuron outgrowth was mostly reversed by sialidase or P4 and only modestly reversed by PI-PLC or NEP1-40 in a non-additive fashion. A soluble proteolytic fragment of native MAG, dMAG, also inhibited neurite outgrowth. In DRGNs, dMAG inhibition was exclusively NgR-dependent, whereas in CGNs it was exclusively ganglioside-dependent. An inhibitor of Rho kinase reversed MAG-mediated inhibition in all nerve cells, whereas a peptide inhibitor of the transducer p75(NTR) had cell-specific effects quantitatively similar to NgR blockers. Our data indicate that MAG inhibits axon outgrowth via two independent receptors, gangliosides and NgRs. 相似文献

The fine structural specificities of six monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to ganglioside GD2, GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer, were studied. The binding specificities of these MAbs were found to differ from each other by virtue of their binding to structurally related authentic standard glycolipids as revealed by three different assay systems, including enzyme immunostaining on thin-layer chromatography, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and immune adherence inhibition assay. The MAbs examined could be divided into three binding types. MAbs A1-201, A1-410, and A1-425 bound specifically to ganglioside GD2 and none of the other gangliosides tested. Two other MAbs (A1-245 and A1-267) reacted not only with GD2, but also with several other gangliosides having the sequence NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal (GD3, GD1b, GT1a, GT1b, and GQ1b). The reactivities with these gangliosides varied to some degree. In addition, these MAbs were found to react with both GD3(NeuAc-NeuAc) and GD3(NeuGc-NeuAc), but not with GD3(NeuAc-NeuGc) or GD3(NeuGc-NeuGc). The last MAb (A1-287) also reacted with several other gangliosides but with lower avidity than A1-245 and A1-267. These findings suggest that each MAb to ganglioside GD2 may have an individual binding specificity and avidity. These MAbs represent potentially useful reagents for analyzing the function of GD2 on cell surface membranes, and provide a system for precisely studying the interactions between an anti-ganglioside antibody and the binding epitope of the antigenic determinant. 相似文献

A number of gangliosides were isolated from cat and sheep erythrocytes for use in analyzing the specificity of a panel of human anti-heterophile monoclonal antibodies. The structures of these compounds were determined by a combination of different procedures, including sugar analysis, glycosidase treatment, periodate oxidation, TLC immunostaining, methylation analysis, and mass spectrometry. These methods identified the cat erythrocytes gangliosides (C1 and C2) as N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc)-containing hematosides; C1 was shown to be NeuGc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta I----4Glc-Cer [NeuGc)2GD3) and C2 to be NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuAc-NeuGc-)GD3). The two sheep gangliosides (S1 and S2) were found to be novel glycolipids based on the paragloboside sequence; S1 was identified as NeuGc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuGc)2-disialylparagloboside) and S2 as NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuGc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4Glc-Cer [NeuAc-NeuGc-)-disialylparagloboside). Structural analysis of these compounds was aided by the use of 252Cf fission fragment ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. This method provided easily interpretable spectra on methylated derivatives which were particularly useful in determining the sialic acid composition of the gangliosides and the sequence of their disialosyl side chains. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of the c-series gangliosides GT3, GT2 and GP1c was studied in Golgi derived from rat liver. Competition experiments show that the synthesis of ganglioside GT2 (GalNAc beta 1----4-(NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal- beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GT3 (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8-NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) seems to be catalysed by the same N-acetylgalactosaminyl-transferase (GalNAc-T), which converts GM3 (NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) to GM2 (GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer). Similar competition experiments suggest moreover that the sialytransferase V (SAT V), which catalyses the synthesis of GT1a (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4- (NeuAc alpha 2----3)-Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GD1a (NeuAc alpha-2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1-Cer) appears to be identical to the enzyme that catalyses the synthesis of GP1c (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3-GalNAc beta 1----4(NeuAc alpha 2----8-NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta-1----4Glc beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer) from GQ1c (NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3Gal-NAc beta 1----4 (NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----8NeuAc alpha 2----3)Gal beta 1----4-Glc beta 1----1Cer).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A distinct difference in ganglioside composition among various rat ascites hepatomas and Yoshida sarcoma was observed on TLC-immunostaining with anti-fucosyl GM1 antibody, and chemical and enzymatic analyses. Yoshida sarcoma and ascites hepatomas, AH13, AH66F and AH66, but not the other 9 tumor cell lines investigated, specifically contained a disialoganglioside, NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3(NeuAc alpha 2-6)GalNAc beta 1-4Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1ceramide (GD1e), whereas the 9 ascites hepatoma cells without GD1e contained fucosyl GM1. The differential expression of fucosyl GM1 and GD1e in various tumor cell lines indicates that different cell lineages express distinct metabolic pathways for gangliosides, and that the gangliosides are useful markers for distinguishing tumor cell lines. 相似文献

Gangliosides GM2, IV4GalNAcGM1b, and IV4GalNAcGC1a as antigens for monoclonal immunoglobulin M in neuropathy associated with gammopathy 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

It was previously reported that monoclonal IgM from two patients with gammopathy and neuropathy showed similar specificity by reacting with the same group of unidentified minor components in the ganglioside fractions of human nervous tissues (Ilyas, A. A., Quarles, R. H., Dalakas, M. C., and Brady, R. O. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 82, 6697-6700). Enzymatic degradation, ion-exchange chromatography, and immunostaining of purified ganglioside standards on thin-layer chromatograms have now revealed that the antigenic glycolipids recognized by the IgM from these patients are gangliosides GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer(GM2), GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-4Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer (IV4GalNAcGM1b), and GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-4 beta Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1-Cer (IV4GalNAcGD1a). The monoclonal IgM appears to be reacting with the terminal [GalNAc beta 1-4Gal(3-2 alpha NeuAc)beta 1-] moiety shared by these three gangliosides and is a useful probe for detecting small amounts of GM2, IV4GalNAcGM1b, IV4GalNAcGD1a, and other gangliosides with the same terminal sugar configuration in tissues. Species distribution studies using the antibody revealed that GM2 is present in the brains and nerves of all species examined, while IV4GalNAcGM1b and IV4GalNAcGD1a exhibit some striking species specificity. GM2, but not IV4GalNAcGD1a, is enriched in purified myelin from human brain. 相似文献

IgM monoclonal antibodies from three patients with polyneuropathy associated with biclonal gammopathy reacted with monosialoganglioside GM1 on thin-layer chromatograms. An IgM paraprotein in one of the patients with a predominantly motor neuropathy also reacted strongly with the ganglioside GD1b and asialo-GM1. All three of these antigenic lipids have a Gal(beta 1-3)GalNAc moiety in common which would appear to be the antigenic determinant. However, this IgM also cross-reacted weakly with paragloboside which has an N-acetyllactosaminyl [Gal(beta 1-4)GlcNAc] terminal structure. The specificity of the other paraprotein in this patient is not known. The IgM paraproteins reacting with GM1 in both of the other patients exhibited different specificity because they did not react with GD1b and asialo-GM1, but reacted strongly with GM2 ganglioside. The data suggest that the epitope for both of these IgMs is in the GalNAc(beta 1-4)(NeuAc alpha 2-3)Gal(beta 1-4)Glc region of the gangliosides that is common to both GM2 and GM1. The second IgM paraproteins in both of these latter patients react with the myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) and two 3-sulfoglucuronyl glycolipids that share antigenic determinants with MAG. 相似文献

Cultured A6 epithelial cells from toad kidney form confluent monolayers with tight junctions separating the apical and basolateral membranes. These two membrane domains have distinct compositions and functions. Thus, sodium is actively transported across the epithelia from the apical to basolateral surface via amiloride-inhibitable sodium channels located in the apical membrane. Sodium transport is stimulated by vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP applied to the basolateral surface where the receptors, adenylate cyclase, and Na+/K+-ATPase are located. In a previous study (Spiegel, S., Blumenthal, R., Fishman, P.H., and Handler, J.S. (1985) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 821, 310-318), we demonstrated that exogenous gangliosides inserted into the apical membrane of A6 epithelia do not redistribute to the basolateral membrane. With the ability to vary selectively the ganglioside composition of the apical membrane, we examined the effects of gangliosides on sodium transport in A6 epithelia. When the apical surface of A6 epithelia were exposed to exogenous gangliosides, sodium transport in response to vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP was enhanced compared to epithelia not exposed to gangliosides. The effect was observed with bovine brain gangliosides, NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4[NeuAc alpha 2----3]Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GD1a) and Gal beta-1----3GalNAc beta 1----4[NeuAc alpha 2----3]Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GM1), but not with the less complex ganglioside, Neu-Ac alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GM3). We examined A6 cells for endogenous gangliosides and found that, whereas GM3 was a major ganglioside, only trace amounts of GM1 and GD1a were present. Based on cell surface and metabolic labeling studies, these gangliosides were synthesized by the cells and were present on the apical as well as the basolateral surface. Bacterial sialidase, which hydrolyzes more complex gangliosides to GM1, was used to modify the endogenous gangliosides on the apical surface; after sialidase treatment, the epithelia were more responsive to vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP. Thus, gangliosides may be modulators of sodium channels present in the apical membrane of epithelial cells. 相似文献

It has previously been reported that a mouse (C57BL/6) monoclonal antibody, M2590, was established against syngeneic melanoma B16 cells, which was shown to react only with melanoma cells from various species but not with other tumor cells or normal tissues (Taniguchi, M., and Wakabayashi, S. (1984) Gann 75, 418-426). In the present study, the specificity of M2590 antibody was shown to be directed to a saccharide arrangement (NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4Glc (or -GlcNAc)) of gangliosides by three different assay systems including enzyme immunostaining on thin layer plates, sandwich radioimmunoassay, and enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assays using a variety of glycolipids with known structures. Neither gangliosides having NeuGc terminus, including NeuGc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4Glc-ceramide and NeuGc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc beta 1-3Gal beta 1-4Glc-ceramide, nor ganglio series gangliosides carrying NeuAc reacted with the antibody. An M2590 antibody-reactive antigen was isolated from B16 melanoma cells, and its structure was determined to be NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4Glc-ceramide by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, methylation analysis, and exoglycosidase treatment. The ceramide was composed of d18:1 as its long-chain base and C16:0, C24:1, and C24:0 as major fatty acids. The same ganglioside was also detected in the culture supernatant of the melanoma cells as shedding antigen. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies raised against NeuAc alpha 2-6neolactotetraosylceramide detect carcinoma-associated gangliosides 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Monoclonal antibodies wee obtained by the immunization of mice with 6'LM1 (IV6NeuAc-nLcOse4Cer) adsorbed to Salmonella minnesota. The monoclonal antibodies showed a specificity for gangliosides with a terminal NeuAc alpha 2-6Gal substitution, which was demonstrated in solid-phase binding assay and in liposome inhibition assay. Gangliosides with a NeuAc alpha 2-6Gal substitution were minor components of different normal tissues. However, these gangliosides were enriched in carcinomas of many tissues, and were particularly enriched in most colorectal carcinomas and in lung carcinomas. 6'LM1 is a characteristic ganglioside in fetal intestinal mucosa (meconium). This ganglioside and other gangliosides with a terminal NeuAc alpha 2-6Gal substitution might represent oncofetal antigens expressed in carcinomas owing to an activation of a "fetal' sialyltransferase. 相似文献
