Summary A rat parathyroid cell line, with some differentiated properties of the parathyroid gland, synthesizes predominantly a heparan sulphate proteoglycan (HS-PG) typical of cell surface HS-PGs (core protein = ∼ 70 kDa, three to four HS chains of ∼ 30 kDa). A 10 min pulse-chase protocol was used to determine the metabolic fate of the HS-PGs for cells maintained in 2.1 mM-Ca2+ (high Ca) or in 0.05 mM-Ca2+ (low Ca). In low Ca, ∼ 60% of the labelled HS-PGs reach the cell surface (t1/2= ∼ 15 min) as determined by trypsin accessibility. This population of HS-PGs recycles (t1/2= ∼ 9 min) between the cell surface and an intracellular (presumably endosome) compartment. After ∼ 2 h, this population of HS-PGs is internalized and rapidly degraded in lysosomes. In high Ca, only ∼ 10% of the HS-PGs reach the cell surface, where they do not recycle. Changing from high to low Ca any time between 30–120 min of chase, rapidly (t1/2 less than 4 min) redistributes the HS-PGs to the cell surface where they begin recycling; conversely, changing from low to high Ca leads to a rapid sequestration of the cell surface HS-PGs within the cells. Other divalent cations fail to minic the response to Ca2+. The results suggest that most of the HS-PGs in this cell line are anchored in a membrane compartment involved in a transport process between endosomes and the cell surface which is regulated by the concentration of extracellular Ca2+.

Heparan Sulphate Proteoglycans

A small group of cell surface receptors are proteoglycans, possessing a core protein with one or more covalently attached glycosaminoglycan chains. They are virtually ubiquitous and their chains are major sites at which protein ligands of many types interact. These proteoglycans can signal and regulate important cell processes, such as adhesion, migration, proliferation, and differentiation. Since many protein ligands, such as growth factors, morphogens, and cytokines, are also implicated in tumour progression, it is increasingly apparent that cell surface proteoglycans impact tumour cell behaviour. Here, we review some recent advances, emphasising that many tumour-related functions of proteoglycans are revealed only after their modification in processes subsequent to synthesis and export to the cell surface. These include enzymes that modify heparan sulphate structure, recycling of whole or fragmented proteoglycans into exosomes that can be paracrine effectors or biomarkers, and lateral interactions between some proteoglycans and calcium channels that impact the actin cytoskeleton.

Tgfβ Superfamily

Many growth factors including members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) superfamily and epidermal growth factor (Egf)-like ligands signal via interactions with heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs). Cell surface HSPGs can act by sequestering ligands at their site of action, by presenting a ligand to its signalling receptor, or by preventing ligand-receptor interaction. The oocyte secreted factors (OSF) growth differentiation factor 9 and bone morphogenetic protein 15 are members of the TGFβ superfamily that act selectively on cumulus cells. Conversely Egf-like ligands are secreted by mural granulosa cells and transmit LH-induced signals to cumulus cells. We investigated the possibility that HSPGs contribute to the spatially restricted responses these signals exert on cumulus cells. Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 are cell surface HSPGs that are involved in numerous biological processes, including growth factor regulation, cell proliferation and differentiation. Microarray analysis showed Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 mRNA expression induced 6-fold (P=10-9) and 3-fold (P=10-7) respectively in Egf+FSH stimulated cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs). Furthermore, Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 mRNA were induced 27- and 16-fold respectively in COCs after hCG treatment of mice. Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 protein was localised specifically to the COC through immunohistochemical analysis. In Vitro Maturation (IVM) of oocytes is a valuable alternative to gonadotropin mediated superovulation, but IVM COCs are less competent than those matured in vivo. Several components of the COC have been shown to be altered in IVM, including the chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan Versican. COCs from mice that underwent IVM in the presence of Egf+FSH and cilostamide for 16 hours had >16 fold reduced mRNA for Syndecan-1 when compared with In Vivo matured COCs. The lack of Syndecan-1 in IVM COCs could reduce signalling capacity of growth factors including OSFs. This may contribute to the reduced capacity of IVM oocytes to fertilise and produce a healthy embryo, and ultimately, a healthy offspring.

This review will summarize our current state of knowledge of the structure, biochemical properties and functions of syndecans, a family of transmembrane heparan sulphate proteoglycans. Syndecans bind a variety of extracellular ligands via their covalently attached heparan sulphate chains. Syndecans have been proposed to play a role in a variety of cellular functions, including cell proliferation and cell–matrix and cell–cell adhesion. Syndecan expression is highly regulated and is cell-type- and developmental-stage-specific. The main function of syndecans appears to be to modulate the ligand-dependent activation of primary signalling receptors at the cell surface. Principal functions of the syndecan core proteins are to target the heparan sulphate chains to the appropriate plasma-membrane compartment and to interact with components of the actin-based cytoskeleton. Several functions of the syndecans, including syndecan oligomerization and actin cytoskeleton association, have been localized to specific structural domains of syndecan core proteins.

Cell Matrix Adhesion

Cell surface proteoglycans comprise a transmembrane or membrane-associated core protein to which one or more glycosaminoglycan chains are covalently attached. They are ubiquitous receptors on nearly all animal cell surfaces. In mammals, the cell surface proteoglycans include the six glypicans, CD44, NG2 (CSPG4), neuropilin-1 and four syndecans. A single syndecan is present in invertebrates such as nematodes and insects. Uniquely, syndecans are receptors for many classes of proteins that can bind to the heparan sulphate chains present on syndecan core proteins. These range from cytokines, chemokines, growth factors and morphogens to enzymes and extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoproteins and collagens. Extracellular interactions with other receptors, such as some integrins, are mediated by the core protein. This places syndecans at the nexus of many cellular responses to extracellular cues in development, maintenance, repair and disease. The cytoplasmic domains of syndecans, while having no intrinsic kinase activity, can nevertheless signal through binding proteins. All syndecans appear to be connected to the actin cytoskeleton and can therefore contribute to cell adhesion, notably to the ECM and migration. Recent data now suggest that syndecans can regulate stretch-activated ion channels. The structure and function of the syndecans and the ion channels are reviewed here, along with an analysis of ion channel functions in cell–matrix adhesion. This area sheds new light on the syndecans, not least since evidence suggests that this is an evolutionarily conserved relationship that is also potentially important in the progression of some common diseases where syndecans are implicated.

The proteoglycans synthesized by an osteoblast-like cell line of rat origin (UMR 106-01) were defined after biosynthetic labelling with [35S]sulphate and [3H]glucosamine. Newly synthesized labelled proteoglycans were characterized by differential enzymic digestion in combination with analytical gel filtration and SDS/PAGE. UMR 106-01 cells were found to synthesize three major species of proteoglycan: a large chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan of Mr approximately 1 x 10(6), with a core protein of Mr approximately 350,000-400,000; a small chondroitin sulphate-containing species of Mr approximately 120,000 with a core protein of Mr 43,000; and a heparan sulphate proteoglycan of Mr approximately 150,000, with a core protein of Mr approximately 80,000. Over 70% of the newly synthesized intact proteoglycan species are associated with the cell layer of near-confluent cells; however, accessibility to trypsin digestion suggests an extracellular location. Chemical characteristics of the proteoglycans and preliminary mRNA hybridization indicate that the small chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan is probably PG II (decorin). The large chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan is most likely related to a hyaluronate-aggregating species from fibroblasts (versican), and the heparan sulphate proteoglycan bears striking similarities to cell-membrane-intercalated species described for a number of cell types.

The heparan sulphate (HS) proteoglycans associated with the cell layer of a rat osteosarcoma cell line [UMR 106-01 (BSP)] were compared with similar cell-associated proteoglycans from other cells, and their interaction with the plasma membrane was studied. HS proteoglycans were metabolically labelled by incubation of cell cultures with [3H]glucosamine or [3H]leucine and [35S]sulphate. HS proteoglycan core protein preparation generated by heparitinase digestion of the major species from UMR 106-01 (BSP) cells co-migrated on PAGE with identical preparations from ovarian granulosa cells and parathyroid cells (at approximately 70 kDa). The hydrophobic nature of the major HS proteoglycans from these diverse cell lines, based on elution position from octyl-Sepharose, were also comparable. Linkages of the HS proteoglycan to the cell membrane were investigated by labelling plasma-membrane preparations with a lipid soluble photoactivatable reagent, 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3- (m-[125I]iodophenyl)diazirine (TID), which selectively labels plasma-membrane-spanning peptide domains. Purified HS proteoglycan from UMR 106-01 (BSP) cells was shown to be accessible to the [125I]TID, and the core protein portion of the molecule was labelled, confirming its close association with the plasma membrane. Approx. 36% of 35S-labelled HS proteoglycans were released from the cell surface by phospholipase C (Bacillus thuringiensis), which specifically cleaves phosphatidylinositol-linked proteins. In the presence of insulin, the metabolism of the phospholipase C-sensitive population was unaltered; however, release of the phospholipase C-insensitive population into the medium was increased. These data indicate that a subpopulation of HS proteoglycans are covalently bound to the plasma membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol structure, with the remainder representing those species directly inserted into the plasma membrane via a hydrophobic peptide domain. These observations are similar to those reported for ovarian granulosa cells [Yanagishita & McQuillan (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264 17551-17558], and thus may represent a general phenomenon for many cell types.

Radiolabelled proteoheparan sulphates were isolated from confluent monolayers of fibroblasts and from their spent media. The cell-surface-associated proteoglycan (Mr 350 000) has a core protein of Mr 180 000 that is cleaved by reduction of disulphide bonds into polypeptides of Mr 90 000, both of which can bind transferrin [Fransson, Carlstedt, Cöster & Malmström (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 81, 5657-5661]. Thrombin digestion of the proteoglycan yielded two major fragments. The larger one contained the heparan sulphate chains and glycoprotein-type oligosaccharides, whereas the smaller one contained interchain disulphide bond(s) and had affinity for transferrin as well as for octyl-Sepharose. The larger thrombic fragment was cleaved by trypsin into fragments containing the heparan sulphate chains and the oligosaccharides respectively. The smaller proteoheparan sulphate derived from the culture medium (Mr 150 000) had a core protein of Mr 30 000, which contained heparan sulphate-attachment and oligosaccharide-attachment regions, but no domains for binding of transferrin or for hydrophobic interactions.

Heparan Sulphate Proteoglycans

We found that neurocan, a major brain chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan, interacts with HSPGs (heparan sulphate proteoglycans) such as syndecan-3 and glypican-1. Binding of these HSPGs to neurocan was prevented by treatment of the HSPGs with heparitinases I and II, but not by treatment of neurocan with chondroitinase ABC. Scatchard plot analysis indicated that neurocan has two binding sites for these HSPGs with different affinities. It is known that neurocan in the rodent brain is proteolytically processed with aging into N- and C-terminal fragments. When a mixture of whole neurocan and N- and C-terminal fragments prepared from neonatal mouse brains or recombinant N- and C-terminal fragments was applied to a heparin column, the whole molecule and both the N- and C-terminal fragments bound to heparin. A centrifugation cell adhesion assay indicated that both the N- and C-terminal neurocan fragments could interact with these HSPGs expressed on the cell surface. To examine the biological significance of the HSPG–neurocan interaction, cerebellar granule cells expressing these HSPGs were cultured on the recombinant neurocan substrate. A significant increase in the rate of neurite outgrowth was observed on the wells coated with the C-terminal neurocan fragment, but not with the N-terminal one. Neurite outgrowth-promoting activity was inhibited by pretreatment of neurocan substrate with heparin or the addition of heparitinase I to culture medium. These results suggest that HSPGs such as syndecan-3 and glypican-1 serve as the cell-surface receptor of neurocan, and that the interaction of these HSPGs with neurocan through its C-terminal domain is involved in the promotion of neurite outgrowth.
