Biosynthesis of the cerebroside odd-numbered fatty acids*
Rats were injected with radioactive acetate or propionate and, after four days, the saturated fatty acids were isolated from the brains and the brain cerebrosides.

The structural elucidation of primary and secondary peroxidation products, formed from complex lipids, is a challenge in lipid analysis. In the present study, rare minor oxidized cerebrosides, isolated from the extract of a far eastern deep-sea glass ...

II3NeuAc-GgOse4Cer (GM1) gangliosidosis is an incurable lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency in acid β-galactosidase (β-gal), resulting in the accumulation of ganglioside GM1 and its asialo derivative GgOse4Cer (GA1) in the central nervous ...

Groups of brains from rats of various ages–7 to 275 days–were analyzed for their contents of galactolipids (cerebroside + cerebroside sulfate), cholesterol, and the individual fatty acids of the gangliosides and glycerophosphatides.

Cerebroside galactosidase of brain
The galactoside bond in cerebroside was found to be cleaved by an enzyme in rat and pig brain. Emulsified stearoyl-(14)C psychosine was used as the substrate and the extent of cleavage was studied by isolating and counting the stearoyl sphingosine (ceramide) formed.

Lipid composition of subcellular particles of human blood platelets
Human platelets can be fractionated into three main subcellular components: granules, membranes, and a soluble fraction. In this study we determined the phospholipid and neutral lipid content of the granules and membranes.

Cerebrosides containing either threo- or erythro-[3-3-H]sphingosine were synthesized by a new procedure. Glucopyranosyl or galactopyranosyl ceramides were converted to their 3-keto derivatives with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone and reduced with 3 ...

Sphingogalactolipids (galactocerebrosides and sulfatides) have been isolated in almost quantitative yields from normal human nervous tissue (mostly brain) at different ages and their fatty acid compositions have been determined by gas-liquid ...

Bioactivity-guided fractionation of a methanolic extract of the Red Sea cucumber Holothuria spinifera and LC-HRESIMS-assisted dereplication resulted in the isolation of four compounds, three new cerebrosides, spiniferosides A (1), B (2), and C (3), and ...

Engineered GM1 Intersects Between Mitochondrial and Synaptic Pathways to Ameliorate ALS Pathology
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease driven by genetic and molecular disruptions affecting energy balance, protein homeostasis, and stress responses in nerve cells. Studies using human and rodent models identified convergent defects in mitochondria and synaptic function.
