Aberrant glycosylation is considered to be a hallmark of colorectal cancer (CRC), as demonstrated by various studies. While the N-glycosylation of cell lines and serum has been widely examined, the analysis of cancer-associated N-glycans from tissues has been hampered by the heterogeneity of tumors and the complexity of N-glycan structures. To overcome these obstacles, we present a study using laser capture microdissection that makes it possible to largely deconvolute distinct N-glycomic signatures originating from different regions of heterogeneous tissues including cancerous, stromal, and healthy mucosa cells. N-glycan alditols were analyzed by means of porous graphitized carbon liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, enabling the differentiation and structural characterization of isomeric species. In total, 116 N-glycans were identified that showed profound differences in expression among cancer, stroma, and normal mucosa. In comparison with healthy mucosa, the cancer cells showed an increase in α2-6 sialylation and monoantennary N-glycans, as well as a decrease in bisected N-glycans. Moreover, specific sialylated and (sialyl-)Lewis^A/X antigen-carrying N-glycans were exclusively expressed in cancers. In comparison with cancer, the stroma showed lower levels of oligomannosidic and monoantennary N-glycans, Lewis^A/X epitopes, and sulfation, as well as increased expression of (core-)fucosylation and α2-3 sialylation. Our study reveals the distinct N-glycomic profiles of different cell types in CRC and control tissues, proving the necessity of their separate analysis for the discovery of cancer-associated glycans.
