Peritoneal colonization by human pancreatic cancer cells is inhibited by antisense FUT3 sequence.

Several alpha(1,3/1,4) fucosyltransferases expressed in human pancreatic cancer cells can participate in the biosynthesis of cell surface sialyl-Lewis a and sialyl-Lewis x antigens that contribute to hematogenous metastatis. Previously, we observed a significant increase of the alpha(1,4) fucosyltransferase activity in tumoral pancreatic cell lines, suggesting that FUT3 could be involved in the sialyl-Lewis antigen expression. Therefore, we invalidated the expression of FUT3 by expressing FUT3 antisense sequence in the human pancreatic tumor BxPC-3 cell line, which expresses the alpha(1,4) fucosyltransferase activity and harbors the cell surface sialyl-Lewis antigens. The decrease of FUT3 transcript after transfection of antisense cDNA of FUT3 in these cells results in a substantial reduction of sialyl-Lewis antigen expression on cell surface. This decreased antigen expression was associated with an inhibition of adhesive properties to E-selectin and a decrease of metastatic power of FUT3 antisense-transfected BxPC-3 cells as tested in nude mice. Our study provides evidence that the expression level of FUT3 may regulate the expression of sialyl-Lewis a and sialyl-Lewis x surface antigens and consequently could play an important role in metastatic properties of human pancreatic cancer cells. << Less

Acceptor specificity of different length constructs of human recombinant alpha 1,3/4-fucosyltransferases. Replacement of the stem region and the transmembrane domain of fucosyltransferase V by protein A results in an enzyme with GDP-fucose hydrolyzing activity.

The acceptor specificity of recombinant full-length, membrane-bound fucosyltransferases, expressed in COS-7 cells, and soluble, protein-A chimeric forms of alpha 1,3-fucosyltransferase (Fuc-T) III, Fuc-TIV, and Fuc-TV was analyzed toward a broad panel of oligosaccharide, glycolipid, and glycoprote ... >> More
The acceptor specificity of recombinant full-length, membrane-bound fucosyltransferases, expressed in COS-7 cells, and soluble, protein-A chimeric forms of alpha 1,3-fucosyltransferase (Fuc-T) III, Fuc-TIV, and Fuc-TV was analyzed toward a broad panel of oligosaccharide, glycolipid, and glycoprotein substrates. Our results on the full-length enzymes confirm and extend previous studies. However, chimeric Fuc-Ts showed increased activity toward glycoproteins, whereas chimeric Fuc-TIII and Fuc-TV had a decreased activity with glycosphingolipids, compared to the full-length enzymes. Unexpectedly, chimeric Fuc-TV exhibited a GDP-fucose hydrolyzing activity. In substrates with multiple acceptor sites, the preferred site of fucosylation was identified. Fuc-TIII and Fuc-TV catalyzed fucose transfer exclusively to OH-3 of glucose in lacto-N-neotetraose and lacto-N-tetraose, respectively, as was demonstrated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Thin layer chromatography immunostaining revealed that FucT-IV preferred the distal GlcNAc residue in nLc6Cer, whereas Fuc-TV preferred the proximal Gl-cNAc residue. Incubation of Fuc-TIV or Fuc-TV with VI3NeuAcnLc6Cer resulted in products with the sialyl-LewisX epitope as well as the VIM-2 structure. To identify polar groups on acceptors that function in enzyme binding, deoxygenated substrate analogs were tested as acceptors. All three Fuc-Ts had an absolute requirement for a hydroxyl at C-6 of galactose in addition to the accepting hydroxyl at C-3 or C-4 of GlcNAc. << Less
