Binding of chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate and fat-storing cell-derived proteoglycans to rat hepatocytes.
1. The interaction of isolated rat hepatocytes with exogenous 3H-labeled chondroitin-4-sulfate and dermatan sulfate and with biosynthetically 35S-labeled proteoglycans secreted by cultured rat liver fat-storing cells has been studied. 2. All ligands are bound by hepatocytes in a concentration-dependent manner. Scatchard-plot analysis of the data revealed the existence of high- and low-affinity binding modes. 3. The cell-bound exogenous [3H]glycosaminoglycans could be displaced by each unlabeled ligand and by heparin, whereas displacement of the endogenous material was less effective. 4. Binding of all ligands to hepatocytes increased with time. For the exogenous glycosaminoglycans the two- to threefold amount was retained at 37 degrees C as compared to 4 degrees C; it was markedly reduced by pretreatment of the cells with trypsin. 5. Degradation of the exogenous ligands could be detected neither for the cell-bound fraction nor for the free glycosaminoglycans in the culture medium. 6. The binding of the ligands to hepatocytes is viewed as a cell-matrix interaction. Its possible pathobiochemical relevance in liver fibrosis or neoplasia is discussed.
