Abstract
Blood group antigen-related oligosaccharides have been implicated in growth regulation, cell mobility control and adhesion; we are therefore interested in the localization of receptors for these oligosaccharides in tumour cells. Labelled neoglycoconjugates that carry synthetic sugar structures are suitable tools to determine: whether such binding sites are present in human lung cancer; whether structural alterations of the glycoligand part will affect extent of binding; and whether cell type-associated alterations can be detected. Sections from 121 cases of lung cancer, representing small cell and non-small cell lung carcinoma, mesothelioma and metastases from extrapulmonary primary carcinomas were used to study the binding of nine synthetic AH- and Le-related oligosaccharides. Probes with fucose-α1-3/4-N-acetylglucosamine-β1-R, an A-like disaccharide and 3′-sulfated galactose as ligand appear to bind less well to small cell than to non-small cell lung cancer cases, whereas Lec-disaccharide distinguishes mesothelioma from metastatic carcinoma. The latter ligand, A-like disaccharide and H (type III)-like trisaccharide exhibit evident cell type-associated differences in extent of binding. Thus, tailor-made neoglycoconjugates constitute a promising class of histopathological tools that warrants further study.
