Abstract
Considerable evidence indicates that changes in cell surface components occur during transformation of a normal cell into a malignant cell and that these changes determine some of the important properties of cancer cells. These properties include loss of contact inhibition, decrease in cell adhesion, increased growth, prolonged survival, expression of new antigens, and escape from immune destruction by the host. Cell surface carbohydrates are believed to be invovled in determining many of these properties. The carbohydrates of the cell surface have the potential to offer a multitude of individual specificities reflected in the cell surface antigens. This potential may be recognized by virtue of different monosaccharide content, linkages, sequence, and anomeric configurations seen in oligosaccharides of glycosphingolipids (GSL) and glycoproteins (GP). Carbohydrates are distributed among three classes of biochemical substances seen in the membranes, namely, GSL, GP, and mucopolysaccharides. Of these biochemical substances, GSLs and GPs are recognized as integral components of cell surface membranes (Leninger, 1968; Singer and Nicolson, 1972).
