Release of glycopeptides and mucopolysaccharides from ascites hepatoma cells by tryptic treatment. 1978

H Nakada, and I Yamashina

Two types of ascites hepatoma cells, AH 66 and AH 130 FN, were treated with trypsin to observe the release of complex carbohydrates constituting the plasma membranes. From AH 66 cells, mucopolysaccharide (heparan sulfate) was preferentially released. From AH 130 FN cells, N-glycosidic glycopeptides were preferentially released whereas no mucopolysaccharide (chondroitin sulfate A) was released.

D006020	Glycopeptides	Proteins which contain carbohydrate groups attached covalently to the polypeptide chain. The protein moiety is the predominant group with the carbohydrate making up only a small percentage of the total weight.	Glycopeptide
D006025	Glycosaminoglycans	Heteropolysaccharides which contain an N-acetylated hexosamine in a characteristic repeating disaccharide unit. The repeating structure of each disaccharide involves alternate 1,4- and 1,3-linkages consisting of either N-acetylglucosamine (see ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE) or N-acetylgalactosamine (see ACETYLGALACTOSAMINE).

D006497	Heparitin Sulfate	A heteropolysaccharide that is similar in structure to HEPARIN. It accumulates in individuals with MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDOSIS.	Heparan Sulfate,Sulfate, Heparan,Sulfate, Heparitin
D006528	Carcinoma, Hepatocellular	A primary malignant neoplasm of epithelial liver cells. It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. The cells may be uniform or markedly pleomorphic, or form GIANT CELLS. Several classification schemes have been suggested.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
