Guillain-Barré syndrome: a century of progress [PDF]
In 1916, Guillain, Barré and Strohl reported on two cases of acute flaccid paralysis with high cerebrospinal fluid protein levels and normal cell counts — novel findings that identified the disease we now know as Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS).

The neutral and acidic glycolipids from the liver of an 11-year-old male were quantitatively isolated and characterized. The total concentration of gangliosides was also determined in sampled from five other human livers.

C1q-targeted inhibition of the classical complement pathway prevents injury in a novel mouse model of acute motor axonal neuropathy [PDF]
Introduction Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disease that results in acute paralysis through inflammatory attack on peripheral nerves, and currently has limited, non-specific treatment options.

Comprehensive Profiling of Surface Gangliosides Extracted from Various Cell Lines by LC-MS/MS
Gangliosides act as a surface marker at the outer cellular membrane and play key roles in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Despite the biological importance of gangliosides, they have been still poorly characterized due to the lack of effective ...

Role of Prion protein-EGFR multimolecular complex during neuronal differentiation of human dental pulp-derived stem cells [PDF]
Cellular prion protein (PrPC) is expressed in a wide variety of stem cells in which regulates their self-renewal as well as differentiation potential. In this study we investigated the presence of PrPCin human dental pulp-derived stem cells (hDPSCs) and ...

Gangliosides: The Double-Edge Sword of Neuro-Ectodermal Derived Tumors
Gangliosides, the glycosphingolipids carrying one or several sialic acid residues, are mostly localized at the plasma membrane in lipid raft domains and implicated in many cellular signaling pathways mostly by interacting with tyrosine kinase receptors ...

Peroxisomal dysfunctions cause lysosomal storage and axonal Kv1 channel redistribution in peripheral neuropathy [PDF]
Impairment of peripheral nerve function is frequent in neurometabolic diseases, but mechanistically not well understood. Here, we report a novel disease mechanism and the finding that glial lipid metabolism is critical for axon function, independent of ...

Retention of gangliosides in serum delipidated by diisopropyl ether-1-butanol extraction.
Extraction with diisopropyl ether-1-butanol is a rapid method for the delipidation of serum without protein denaturation. We sought to confirm that this solvent system would also extract the highly polar acidic glycosphingolipids, gangliosides.

Differential binding patterns of anti-sulfatide antibodies to glial membranes [PDF]
Sulfatide is a major glycosphingolipid in myelin and a target for autoantibodies in autoimmune neuropathies. However neuropathy disease models have not been widely established, in part because currently available monoclonal antibodies to sulfatide may ...

Gangliosides in Cancer Cell Signaling.
At the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, gangliosides are found with other glycosphingolipids, phospholipids, and cholesterol in glycolipid-enriched microdomains, in which they interact with signaling molecules including receptor tyrosine kinases and
