Abstract:
:Chorionic binucleate cells (BNC) occur in several ruminants including cow, deer, goat and sheep. They migrate through the chorionic tight junction to fuse with uterine epithelial cells and discharge their granules into maternal connective tissue. We have compared the BNC of near-term, resin-embedded, ovine and bovine placentae using 15 biotinylated lectins and an avidinperoxidase revealing system. There was pronounced conservation of saccharides between the two species. Several sub-types of N-glycan were present, with highly branched structures being abundant, as shown by Galanthus nivalis, Pisum sativum and Phaseolus vulgaris (leuko) agglutinins. Among the non-reducing terminal saccharides conserved were GalNAc alpha 1,3(Fuc alpha 1,2)-Gal beta 1,4GlcNAc beta 1-, GalNAc alpha 1,6Gal beta 1-, Gal beta 1-, Gal beta 1,4GlcNAc- and Gal beta 1,3GalNAc alpha 1- shown by Dolichos biflorus, Wisteria floribunda, Erythrina cristagalli, and Maclura pomifera agglutinins, respectively. Arachis hypogaea and Glycine max agglutinins tended to bind to bovine BNC at different stages of maturity, while fucosyl residues detectable by Tetragonolobus purpureus and Ulex europaeus-1 agglutinins were not observed in either species. The only major difference related to sialyl residues, with alpha 2,3-linked sialic acid being present in bovine (Maackia amurensis, Limax flavus) and alpha 2,6 sialic acid being present in ovine (Sambucus nigra agglutinin) cells. This conservation of glycan may be related to glycosylation of peptide hormones in the granules, and may thus be important in the targeting of these hormones to their receptors.
