Research Abstract |
We have established microanalyses methods to analyze structures of N-glycans and acidic glycosphingolipids(GSLs). Acidic GSLs from three cases of primary colonic adenocarcinoma and hepatic metastasis were analyzed. A total of 22 major acidic GSL structures were identified, and their relative quantities were revealed in detail. They are composed of one sulfated (SM3), one lacto-series (SLe^a), six kinds of ganglio-series and fourteen kinds of neolacto-series GSLs. They include most of the acidic glycosphingolipids previously reported to be present in the tissues and two hitherto unknown fucogangliosides sharing the same terminal structure : NeuAcα2-6(Fucα1-2)Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4Glc, and NeuAcα2-6(Fucα1-2)Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAcβ1-3-Galβ1-4Glc. Laser microdissection technique enabled to revealed that α2-6 terminal sialylated and fucosylated GSLs were overexpressed in colon cancer cells. Slight difference of N-glycan structures between normal colon epithelia and tumor tissues was observed. However, comparison of the various N-glycans profiles with the aid of LMD identified seven characteristic N-glycans with significantly different expression profiles between normal and cancerous cells that could not be detected by conventional analysis. These N-glycans were bi-antennary having bisecting GlcNAc and decreased in colon cancer cells.
