Glycation Leads to Increased Polysialylation and Promotes the Metastatic Potential of Neuroblastoma Cells

description | Neuroblastoma is the second most frequent extracranial tumor, affecting young children worldwide. One hallmark of tumors such as neuroblastomas, is the expression of polysialic acid, which interferes with adhesion and may promote invasion and metastasis. Since tumor cells use glycolysis for energy production, they thereby produce as side product methylglyoxal (MGO), which reacts with proteins to advanced glycation end products in a mechanism called glycation. Here we analyzed the expression of (poly) sialic acid and adhesion of Kelly neuroblastoma cells after glycation with MGO. We found that both sialylation and polysialylation is increased after glycation. Furthermore, glycated Kelly neuroblastoma cells had a much higher potential for migration and invasion compared with non-glycated cells. |
