Abstract
Many biochemical responses to phorbol ester differentiation inducers have been reported, including alterations in synthesis of specific gene products such as glycoproteins. Stage-specific glycosaminoglycan changes have previously been associated with the differentiation process, including a dramatic reduction in cellular chondroitin 4-sulfate during human myeloid leukemia cell maturation induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). We have demonstrated that treatment of HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells with 4-methyl-umbelliferyl-β-d-xyloside increases precursor incorporation into glycosaminoglycans linked to β-d-xyloside, rather than core protein, eliminating the need for core protein and xylosyl-transferase. Therefore, these β-d-xyloside-treated cells were used to study the decreased glycosaminoglycan production during TPA-induced HL-60 differentiation. Exposure of these pretreated HL-60 cells to TPA, which induces macrophage-like maturation, resulted in a 70% reduction of incorporation of [35S]sulfate into cell-associated glycosaminoglycans. Thus, even in HL-60 cells in which glycosaminoglycan production is maximally stimulated by β-d-xyloside, TPA is a strong inhibitor of free glycosaminoglycan chain production, and this biochemical effect is associated with other features of leukocyte maturation.

Bibliographical note
Funding Information:SYN'I'ItESIS of glycosaminoglycans has been correlated with discrete maturational stages of development in several embryonic systems [1-6], as well as in normal [7, 8] and leukemic [9] leukocytes. A dramatic decrease in cellular glycosaminoglycans appears to be associated with the induction of a mature phenotype by TPA or dimethyl sulfoxide in human myeloid leukemia cells [9]. Decreased glycosaminoglycan levels in mature compared to immature myeloid cells concur with the findings of Olsson [10] using freshly isolated peripheral blood leukocytes from leukemia patients and autoradio- * This investigation was supported, in part, by PHS Grant CA-38972. awarded by the National Cancer Institute, DHHS, Grant CH-39973 from the American Cancer Society, a Minnesota Medical Foundation Grant, the Coleman Leukemia Research Fund. and the Masonic Memorial Hospital Fund, Inc.
