Abstract

The analysis of altered glycosylation patterns may provide biomarkers for various types of cancer. The present study developed a Pinellia pedatisecta agglutinin (PPA)‑based lectin blot analysis technique, which was used to analyze the glycosylation patterns in various types of cancer cells. Results showed that a typical band located between 47 and 85 kDa was obtained in the HL60 leukemia cells, whereas three typical bands located between 20 and 47 kDa were observed in the Kasumi‑1 leukemia cells. For the PLC, BEL‑7404, Huh7 and H1299 solid tumor cell lines, different band patterns were detected, with bands typically located between 55 and 100 kDa. The findings of the present study show that PPA‑based lectin blot analysis is capable of distinguishing between glycosylation patterns in leukemia and solid tumor cell lines. The glycofiles detected using PPA‑based lectin blot analysis may provide a ‘glycosylation fingerprint’ for a variety of cancer cells, which may be valuable for cancer prognosis and diagnosis.
