Binding of laminin to glycolipids of neuronal membranes was studied with a thin-layer chromatography overlay assay. The major brain ganglioside GD1A was the main binding component, when chromatograms containing the same molar amount of the different ...

Abstract Background Lysosomal dysfunction is central to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis, with GBA1 representing the strongest established genetic risk factor. Numerous other genes involved in lysosomal sphingolipid, glycosphingolipid, and ceramide metabolism have been proposed as contributors to PD, highlighting the need for genetic analyses ...

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Gangliosides turnover and neural cells function: A new perspective
There is a possibility that ganglioside turnover plays a major role in the formation of intracellular metabolic regulators. The chapter focuses on the evidence supporting this possibility, with particular reference to neural cells function.

AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Murine Peritoneal Macrophage Gangliosides Inhibit Lymphocyte Proliferation
Gangliosides have been shown to act as immunoregulatory agents by altering proliferative responses of lymphocytes to both antigens and mitogens. Most early studies have utilized brain gangliosides and have required high concentrations.

Molecular recognition of gangliosides and their potential for cancer immunotherapies
Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids expressed on all vertebrate cells. They are primarily positioned in the plasma membrane, with the ceramide part anchored in the membrane and the glycan part exposed on the surface of the cell ...

O-acetylated Gangliosides as Targets for Cancer Immunotherapy
O-acetylation of sialic acid residues is one of the main modifications of gangliosides, and modulates ganglioside functions. O-acetylation of gangliosides is dependent on sialyl-O-acetyltransferases and sialyl-O-acetyl-esterase activities.

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.
