Cultured arterial fibroblasts were used for a quantitative study on adsorption, uptake and degradation of [35S]proteoglycans derived from secretions of cultured arterial or skin fibroblasts. The following results were obtained: 1) Proteoglycans added to the culture medium are integrated into the pool of cell membrane-associated (trypsin-removable) glycosaminoglycans by a saturable process, which depends on time and temperature. 2) Up to 17% of the added proteoglycans are taken up by the cells within 24 h. The uptake exhibits saturation kinetics, characteristic for adsorptive pinocytosis. Proteoglycan concentrations required for half-maximum uptake are higher than for half-maximum saturation of the glycosaminoglycan pool associated with the cell membrane. 3) After a lag phase, inorganic 35SO4 appears in the culture medium as a degradation product of the internalized proteoglycans. Pinocytosed proteoglycans are catabolized more rapidly than proteoglycans which remain inside the cell after their biosynthesis. 4) Pinocytosis exhibits specificity, the individual proteoglycans being internalized at different rates. The highest rate of uptake was measured for a dermatan-sulfate-rich proteoglycan. No competition of uptake between a dermatan-sulfate-rich and a heparan-sulfate-rich proteoglycan was observed. 5) Optimum pinocytosis requires an intact protein moiety and, presumably, undegraded carbohydrate chains of the proteoglycans.
