This study aimed to determine ifN-sulfation of heparan sulfate (HS) byN-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase 1 (NDST1) plays a role forToxoplasma gondiitissue dissemination in mice. Specifically, whether organs deficient in NDST1 were infected at slower rate than wild type organs within the same mouse was investigated. 12 wild-type and NDST1-knockout mice were tested for infectivity withT. gondii. Mice were sacrificed on day 3 when infection of the liver was first detected. The spleen and heart were used as control organs. The results showed that median infection rate was virtually identical between experimental and control groups. Infection of the liver was unaffected by inactivation of NDST1, as well as that of mammary gland. In order to explain this result, purified hepatocytes and mammary epithelial cells from NDST-1 inactivated tissues were assessed for loss of HSN-sulfation and ability to resist infection. Analysis showed that both hepatocytes and mammary epithelial cells exhibited about 50% reduction inN-sulfation as well as reducedT. gondiiinfection. It is concluded that NDST1 facilitates infectionin vitrobut notin vivo.
