Effect of retinoic acid on two glycosyltransferase activities in c6 cultured glioma cells

Résumé

1. Activity of two glycosyltransferases was studied in retinoic acid-treated C6 cultured glioma cells. 2. The beta-galactoside alpha 2,3-sialyltransferase transferring N-acetylneuramin onto the O-glycans residues of glycoproteins was activated up to twice after chronic treatment (from 24 to 96 hr) with all-trans retinoic acid. 3. No effect was observed for shorter treatments. 4. On the opposite, the N-glycan galactosyltransferase activity remained unchanged whatever the length of retinoic acid treatment was. 5. The activatory effect was not dependent on isomery, as all-trans and 13-cis retinoic acid isomers were both activators of the C6 glioma cell sialyltransferase. 6. Measurement of adhesion of retinoic acid-treated cells using labelled plasma membranes showed an enhancement of adhesion in correlation with enhancement of sialyltransferase activity.
