The lymphocyte-endothelial interaction is initiated by selection type adhesion molecules on the surface of the lymphocytes (L-selectins) and by their carbohydrate ligands (addressins) in the glycocalyx of the endothelial cells. Under experimental conditions they can be substituted by analogue sugars, such as polyphosphonomonoester core polysaccharide and fucoidin. In this study, the expression of phosphomannosyl and fucoidin receptors is demonstrated on lymphocytes from human peripheral blood by polyacrylamide immobilized analogues. Based on adhesion and sugar inhibitory experiments, authors suggest that lineage and probably species specific differences exist in the expression and activity of the selectins responsible for binding of the two analogue molecules.

The binding of the leucocyte adhesion molecule L-selectin has been investigated toward several structurally defined lipid-linked oligosaccharides immobilized on silica gel chromatograms or plastic wells. In both assay systems the 3'-sulphated Le(a)/Le(x) type tetrasaccharides [formula: see text] were more strongly bound than 3'-sialyl analogues. A considerable binding was observed to the 3'-sulphated oligosaccharide backbone in the absence of fucose but not to a 3'-sialyl analogue or fuco-oligosaccharide analogues lacking sulphate or sialic acid. Affinity for other sulphated saccharides: 3'-sulphoglucuronyl neolactotetraosyl ceramide and glycolipids with sulphate 3'-linked to terminal or sub-terminal galactose or N-acetylgalactosamine was detected in the chromatogram assay only. These studies, together with earlier reports that L-selectin binding to endothelium is inhibited by sulphatide, highlight the relative importance of sulphate in the adhesive specificity of this protein.

E-selectin is the inducible adhesion protein on the surface of endothelial cells which has a crucial role in the initial stages of recruitment of leucocytes to sites of inflammation. In addition, it is almost certainly involved in tumor cell adhesion and metastasis. This report is concerned with identification of a new class of oligosaccharide ligand--sulfate-containing--for the human E-selectin molecule from among oligosaccharides on an ovarian cystadenoma glycoprotein. This has been achieved by application of the neoglycolipid technology to oligosaccharides released from the glycoprotein by mild alkaline beta-elimination. Oligosaccharides were conjugated to lipid, resolved by thin-layer chromatography, and tested for binding by Chinese hamster ovary cells which had been transfected to express the full-length E-selectin molecule. Several components with strong E-selectin binding activity were revealed among acidic oligosaccharides. The smallest among these was identified by liquid secondary ion mass spectrometric analysis of the neoglycolipid, in conjunction with methylation analysis of the purified oligosaccharide preparation as an equimolar mixture of the Le(a)- and Le(x)/SSEA-1-type fucotetrasaccharides sulfated at position 3 of outer galactose: [formula: see text] To our knowledge this is the first report of a sulfofucooligosaccharide ligand for E-selectin. The binding activity is substantially greater than those of lipid-linked Le(a) and Le(x)/SSEA-1 sequences and is at least equal to that of the 3'-sialyl-Le(x)/SSEA-1 glycolipid analogue.
