Ei. Kovalenko et al., THE INCORPORATION OF NEOGLYCOLIPIDS INTO K562 CELLS - A MODEL FOR THESTUDY OF CARBOHYDRATE-DEPENDENT CYTOLYSIS OF TARGET-CELLS BY NATURAL-KILLER-CELLS, Bioorganiceskaa himia, 24(3), 1998, pp. 224-228
A model system was developed to study the role of cell surface oligosa
ccharides in cytotoxicity mediated by natural killer (NK) cells. Polym
eric glycoconjugates Glyc-PAA-PE and Glyc-PAA(Flu)-PE (where Glyc is t
he 3-aminopropyl Le(x) residue, PAA is the poly(N-2-hydroxyethylacryla
mide) matrix, Flu is the residue of a fluorescein derivative, and PE i
s the phosphatidylethanolamine residue) were synthesized, and their as
sociation with the membranes of living K562 cells was studied.
