AbstractThe structure and properties of a group of gangliosides modified by mild alkaline treatment are discussed. We will present the occurrence and the structure of gangliosides carrying the N-acetyneuraminic acid O-acetylated in position 9, the Neu5,9Ac2, and of gangliosides carrying a sialic acid that forms a lactone ring. Starting from biochemical

Role of gangliosides in prostate pathology [PDF]
Molecular pathology of benign prostatic hyperplasia is multifactorial and involves endocrine, biochemical, immunological interactions. The mechanisms involved in the onset and progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia are: infections, 50 years of age ...

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‐

Ferrets exclusively synthesize Neu5Ac and express naturally humanized influenza A virus receptors [PDF]
Mammals express the sialic acids N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) on cell surfaces, where they act as receptors for pathogens, including influenza A virus (IAV). Neu5Gc is synthesized from Neu5Ac by the enzyme

The authors investigated the effects of various glycan ligands for CLEC10A, a lectin receptor expressed on dendritic cells (DCs). Monocyte‐derived DCs were stimulated with glycan‐conjugated dendrimers in combination with the TLR1/2 ligand Pam3CysK4, and responses were investigated at the mRNA and protein level.

Glycolipid abnormalities in a myoclonic variant of late infantile amaurotic idiocy
Glycolipids were isolated from the brain of a patient with a myoclonic variant of late infantile amaurotic idiocy. There was an abnormal glycolipid pattern in gray and white matter.

Synthesis of N-Glycolylneuraminic Acid (Neu5Gc) and Its Glycosides. [PDF]
Sialic acids constitute a family of negatively charged structurally diverse monosaccharides that are commonly presented on the termini of glycans in higher animals and some microorganisms.

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 ...

Human medulloblastoma gangliosides [PDF]
To establish a model system for the study of ganglioside metabolism of the human brain tumor, medulloblastoma, we have chemically characterized the gangliosides of the Daoy cell line. These cells contain a high concentration of gangliosides (143 +/- 13 nmol LBSA/10(8) cells). The major species have been structurally confirmed to be GM2 (65.9%), GM3 (13.

Dry Deposition Strategies for MALDI–MS Imaging: Principles, Advances and Emerging Applications
ABSTRACT Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionisation mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI–MSI) has become a pivotal tool in biomedical research, enabling untargeted, spatially resolved analysis of molecular species in complex biological tissues. Among the critical steps in MALDI–MSI workflows, matrix deposition significantly influences sensitivity, spatial
