Lin B, Qing X, Liao J, Zhuo K. Role of Protein Glycosylation in Host-Pathogen Interaction. Cells 2020; 9:E1022. [PMID: 32326128 PMCID: PMC7226260 DOI: 10.3390/cells9041022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 85] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2020] [Revised: 04/11/2020] [Accepted: 04/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Host-pathogen interactions are fundamental to our understanding of infectious diseases. Protein glycosylation is one kind of common post-translational modification, forming glycoproteins and modulating numerous important biological processes. It also occurs in host-pathogen interaction, affecting host resistance or pathogen virulence often because glycans regulate protein conformation, activity, and stability, etc. This review summarizes various roles of different glycoproteins during the interaction, which include: host glycoproteins prevent pathogens as barriers; pathogen glycoproteins promote pathogens to attack host proteins as weapons; pathogens glycosylate proteins of the host to enhance virulence; and hosts sense pathogen glycoproteins to induce resistance. In addition, this review also intends to summarize the roles of lectin (a class of protein entangled with glycoprotein) in host-pathogen interactions, including bacterial adhesins, viral lectins or host lectins. Although these studies show the importance of protein glycosylation in host-pathogen interaction, much remains to be discovered about the interaction mechanism.

Abstract
A wild chickpea lectin (WCL) from the seeds of Cicer reticulatum L. was chromato-purified using DEAE-Cellulose and SP-Sephadex ion exchange chromatography. WCL was thermostable upto 60°C with broad pH optima (pH 5-9) and various divalent metal ions did not influence its activity. WCL demonstrated DNA protection in a dose-dependent manner. The lectin exerted antifungal activity against diverse fungal pathogens. WCL augmented the mitogenic response of mouse spleen cells at 10 µg/ml concentration and showed an inhibition of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase at IC50 of 200 µM. Against human cancer cell lines, lectin demonstrated anticancer potential. The cell viability assay in HepG2, Ishikawa, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell line demonstrated IC50 values of 61.8, 54.4, 37.5 and 44.2 µg/ml respectively. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: WCL exhibited distinct medicinal properties vis-à-vis antiproliferative, mitogenic, antifungal/bacterial and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibiting activities. The potential of WCL can be a subject of exploration from a pharmacological standpoint.

Abstract
A 35 kDa rabbit erythrocyte agglutinating lectin from the seeds of Cicer arietinum was purified and designated as CAL. The lectin was inhibited by fetuin and N-acetyl-d-galactosamine at a concentration of 20 and 50 mM respectively, but not by simple mono or oligosaccharides. CAL is active between pH 5 and 10 presented thermo stability up to 50 °C and demonstrated DNA damage inhibition at 30 µg concentration. The lectin elicited maximum mitogenic activity towards mice splenocytes at 7.5 µg ml- 1. CAL exerted an inhibitory activity on HIV-1 reverse transcriptase with IC50 of 180 µM. CAL abilities in animal bioassay resulted decreased levels of total triglyceride and creatinine. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that CAL may constitute an important role impending biomedical applications.

Abstract
Lectins are proteins that are subject of intense investigations. Information on lectin from chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) with respect to its biological activities are very limited. In this study, we purified lectin from the seeds of chickpea employing DEAE-cellulose and SP-Sephadex ion exchange chromatography and identified its molecular subunit mass as 35 kDa. The free radical scavenging activity of lectin measured by the DPPH assay has IC50 of 0.88 µg/mL. Lectin exerted antifungal activity against Candida krusei, Fusarium oxysporium oxysporium, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans, while antibacterial activity against E. coli, B. subtilis, S. marcescens and P. aeruginosa. The minimum inhibitory concentrations were 200, 240, 160 and 140 µg for C. krusei, F. oxysporium, S. cerevisiae and C. albicans respectively. Lectin was further examined for its antiproliferative potential against cancerous cell line. The cell viability assay indicated a high inhibition activity on Ishikawa, HepG2, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 with IC50 value of 46.67, 44.20, 53.58 and 37.46 µg/mL respectively. These results can provide a background for future research into the benefits of chickpea lectin to pharmacological perspective.

Cell surface interaction of annexin A2 and galectin-3 modulates epidermal growth factor receptor signaling in Her-2 negative breast cancer cells. Mol Cell Biochem 2015; 411:221-33.

Abstract
Overexpression and activation of tyrosine kinase receptors like EGFR and Src regulate the progression and metastasis of Her-2 negative breast cancer. Recently we have reported the role of cell membrane interaction of phospholipid-binding protein annexin A2 (AnxA2) and EGFR in regulating cellular signaling in the activation of angiogenesis, matrix degradation, invasion, and cancer metastasis. Beta-galactoside-specific animal lectin galectin-3 is an apoptosis inhibitor, and cell surface-associated extracellular galectin-3 also has a role in cell migration, cancer progression, and metastasis. Similar expression pattern and membrane co-localization of these two proteins made us to hypothesize in the current study that galectin-3 and AnxA2 interaction is critical for Her-2 negative breast cancer progression. By various experimental analyses, we confirm that glycosylated AnxA2 at the membrane surface interacts with galectin-3. N-linked glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin treatment convincingly blocked AnxA2 membrane translocation and its association with galectin-3. To analyze whether this interaction has any functional relevance, we tried to dissociate this interaction with purified plant lectin from chickpea (Cicer arietinum agglutinin). This highly specific 30 kDa plant lectin could dissociate AnxA2 from endogenous lectin galectin-3 interaction at the cell surface. This dissociation could down-regulate Bcl-2 family proteins, cell proliferation, and migration simultaneously triggering cell apoptosis. Targeting this interaction of membrane surface glycoprotein and its animal lectin in Her-2 negative breast cancer may be of therapeutic value.

Antifungal and antiproliferative protein from Cicer arietinum: a bioactive compound against emerging pathogens. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2014; 2014:387203. [PMID: 24963482 PMCID: PMC4053179 DOI: 10.1155/2014/387203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2014] [Revised: 04/09/2014] [Accepted: 04/23/2014] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
The emergence of epidemic fungal pathogenic resistance to current antifungal drugs has increased the interest in developing alternative antibiotics from natural sources. Cicer arietinum is well known for its medicinal properties. The aim of this work was to isolate antimicrobial proteins from Cicer arietinum. An antifungal protein, C-25, was isolated from Cicer arietinum and purified by gel filtration. C-25 protein was tested using agar diffusion method against human pathogenic fungi of ATCC strains and against clinical isolates of Candida krusei, Candida tropicalis, and Candida parapsilosis, and MIC values determined were varied from 1.56 to 12.5 μg/mL. The SEM study demonstrated that C-25 induces the bleb-like surface changes, irregular cell surface, and cell wall disruption of the fungi at different time intervals. Cytotoxic activity was studied on oral cancer cells and normal cells. It also inhibits the growth of fungal strains which are resistant to fluconazole. It reduced the cell proliferation of human oral carcinoma cells at the concentration of 37.5 μg/mL (IC50) and no toxic effect was found on normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells even at higher concentration of 600 μg/mL. It can be concluded that C-25 can be considered as an effective antimycotic as well as antiproliferative agent against human oral cancer cells.
