Effects of homoharringtonine on protein glycosylation in human bladder carcinoma cell T-24.

Rates of [3H]glucosamine and mannose incorporation into glycoproteins and dolichol-linked oligosaccharides in exponentially growing T-24 bladder cancer cells were examined after exposure to homoharringtonine (HHT). Two-h treatment of HHT (10 ng/ml) reduced [3H]glucosamine and mannose incorporation into the glycoproteins to 61% and 32% of controls. Concomitantly, respective sugar incorporation into dolichol-linked oligosaccharides was elevated 29% and 30% above control. The maximal inhibition of glycoprotein biosynthesis and stimulation of the lipid-linked oligosaccharides occurred within 2 to 4 h after exposure to 50 ng/ml of the drug. Prolonged drug exposure (greater than 8 h) resulted in generalized suppression of glycoprotein biosynthesis and lipid-linked oligosaccharide formation. The kinetic study indicated that the time course on reduction of glycoprotein biosynthesis and accumulation of dolichol-linked oligosaccharides paralleled the decline in protein synthesis. Further, the inhibition of glycoprotein synthesis and stimulation of dolichol-linked oligosaccharides were reversible 4 h after drug withdrawal. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis autoradiographic analysis of the [3H]mannose-labeled glycoprotein revealed no pronounced difference between HHT-treated and control cells. These data suggest that the inhibition of glycosylation results from combined decrease of acceptors for glycoprotein biosynthesis with a simultaneous accumulation of the dolichol-linked oligosaccharides. Collectively these data may account for many of the HHT-induced bioresponses.
