α2,3-Sialyltransferase represents a putative enzyme that reduces the Galα1-3Gal β1-4GlcNAc-R (the α-galactosyl epitope) by intracellular competition with α1,3-galactosyltransferase for a common acceptor substrate. This study demonstrates that the overexpression of the α2,3-sialyltransferase gene suppresses the antigenicity of swine endothelial cells to human natural antibodies by 77% relative to control cells and by 30% relative to cells transfected with α1,2-fucosyltransferase, and in addition, it reduces the complement-mediated cell lysis by 75% compared with control cells and by 22% compared with cells transfected with α1,2-fucosyltransferase. The mechanism by which the α-galactosyl epitope was reduced was also studied. Suppression of α1,3-galactosyltransferase activity by 30–63% was observed in the transfectants with α2,3-sialyltransferase, and mRNA expression of the α1,3-galactosyltransferase gene was reduced as well. The data suggest that the α2,3-sialyltransferase effectively reduced the α-galactosyl epitope as well as or better than the α1,2-fucosyltransferase did and that the reduction of the α-galactosyl epitope is due not only to substrate competition but also to an overall reduction of endogenous α1,3-galactosyltransferase enzyme activity.
