Flagellar membrane association via interaction with lipid rafts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The eukaryotic flagellar membrane has a distinct composition from other domains of the plasmalemma. Our work shows that the specialized composition of the trypanosome flagellar membrane reflects increased concentrations of sterols and saturated fatty ...

Developing rat brain: changes in cholesterol, galactolipids, and the individual fatty acids of gangliosides and glycerophosphatides

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1965
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.

Structural diversity and biological significance of glycosphingolipids in pathogenic and opportunistic fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are ubiquitous membrane components and have key roles in biological systems, acting as second messengers or modulators of signal transduction by affecting several events, ranging from cell adhesion, cell growth, cell motility ...

Lipid composition of subcellular particles of human blood platelets

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1969
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.

Holospiniferoside: A New Antitumor Cerebroside from The Red Sea Cucumber Holothuria spinifera: In Vitro and In Silico Studies

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Chemical investigation of the methanolic extract of the Red Sea cucumber Holothuria spinifera led to the isolation of a new cerebroside, holospiniferoside (1), together with thymidine (2), methyl-α-d-glucopyranoside (3), a new triacylglycerol (4), and ...

The relationships between vitamin K and cognition: a review of current evidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble nutrient discovered in 1935 and its role in blood coagulation has been thoroughly explored. In recent years, studies conducted in vitro and on animals highlighted vitamin K involvement in brain cells development and survival ...

Substrate reduction reduces gangliosides in postnatal cerebrum-brainstem and cerebellum in GM1 gangliosidosis mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
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 ...

Night-time oxidation of a monolayer model for the air–water interface of marine aerosol - a study by simultaneous neutron reflectometry and in situ infra-red reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper describes experiments on the ageing of a monolayer model for the air–water interface of marine aerosols composed of a typical glycolipid, galactocerebroside (GCB). Lipopolysaccharides have been observed in marine aerosols, and GCB is used as a

Specific tritium labeling of cerebrosides at the 3-positions of erythro-sphingosine and threo-sphingosine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1975
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 ...

Changes in the fatty acid composition of cerebrosides and sulfatides of human nervous tissue with age

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1968
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 ...
