Stimulated endothelial cells and activated platelets express P-selectin, which reacts with P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) for leukocyte rolling on the stimulated endothelial cells and heterotypic aggregation of the activated platelets on leukocytes. P-selectin also binds to several cancer cells in vitro and promotes the growth and metastasis of human colon carcinoma in vivo. The P-selectin/PSGL-1 interaction requires tyrosine sulfation. However, it is unknown whether sulfation is necessary for P-selectin binding to somatic cancer cells. In this study, we show that P-selectin mediated adhesion of Acc-M cells, a cell line derived from a human adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary gland. These cells had a moderate expression of heparan sulfate-like proteoglycans, but had no detectable expressions of PSGL-1, CD24, Lewis(x), and sialyl Lewis(x). Treatment with sodium chlorate (a sulfation biosynthesis inhibitor), but not 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-xyloside (a proteoglycan biosynthesis inhibitor) or heparinases, reduced adhesion of these cells to P-selectin. Sodium chlorate also inhibited the P-selectin precipitation of the 160-, 54-, and 36-kDa molecules from the cell surface of Acc-M cells. Furthermore, P-selectin could bind to human breast carcinoma ZR-75-30 cells in a sulfation-dependent manner. Our results thus indicate that sulfation is essential for adhesion of nonblood-borne, epithelial-like human cancer cells to P-selectin.

Obligatory Requirement of Sulfation for P-Selectin Binding to Human Salivary Gland Carcinoma Acc-M Cells and Breast Carcinoma ZR-75-30 Cells
