Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) content in HeLa cells is correlated to Shiga toxin-induced cytotoxicity and Gb3 synthase expression

open access: yesBMB Reports, 2009
Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotetraosylceramide (Gb4) are the proposed functional receptors for Shiga toxin (Stx). To elucidate the effect of Gb3 content on Stx-induced cytotoxicity in HeLa cells, we cloned HeLa cells and determined the correlation between glycolipids content and Stx-induced cytotoxicity. The 29 HeLa cell clone (HLCC) lines used

Verotoxin-1 Treatment or Manipulation of its Receptor Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) for Reversal of Multidrug Resistance to Cancer Chemotherapy

open access: yesToxins, 2010
A major problem with anti-cancer drug treatment is the development of acquired multidrug resistance (MDR) of the tumor cells. Verotoxin-1 (VT-1) exerts its cytotoxicity by targeting the globotriaosylceramide membrane receptor (Gb3), a glycolipid ...

Synthesis of an Aminooxy Derivative of the Trisaccharide Globotriose Gb3 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Carbohydrate Chemistry, 2014
The synthesis of α-aminooxy trisaccharide moiety [α-d-Gal-(1,4)-β-d-Gal-(1,4)-β-d-Glc-α-aminooxy], related to the cell surface globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) receptor of the B subunit of the AB5 Shiga toxin of Shigella dysenteriae, has been synthesized for the first time in 11 steps with a 15% overall isolated yield.

Globotriaosylceramide Gb3 Influences Wound Healing and Scar Formation by Orchestrating Fibroblast Heterogeneity

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Cutaneous fibroblast heterogeneity is mechanistically linked to wound repair outcomes and fibrotic progression, with glycosphingolipid metabolism emerging as a critical determinant of physiological fibroblast diversity.

Fabry Disease Nephropathy: Compendium of “in vitro” and “in vivo” Renal Effects of Globotriaosylsphingosine [PDF]

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research
Background: Renal damage in Fabry disease (FD) is a consequence of pathological and progressive glycosphingolipids accumulation, which occurs in different magnitudes among FD phenotypes, but is a constant renal tissue phenomenon in all ...

Lyso-Gb3 modulates the gut microbiota and decreases butyrate production [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Fabry disease is a rare X-linked lysosomal storage disorder resulting from deficient activity of α-galactosidase A, leading to the accumulation of glycosphingolipids such as globotriaosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb3).

A Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole-Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometric Assay for the Quantification of Fabry Disease Biomarker Globotriaosylceramide (GB3) in Fabry Model Mouse

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2018
Fabry disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder resulting from the lack of α-Gal A gene activity. Globotriaosylceramide (GB3, ceramide trihexoside) is a novel endogenous biomarker which predicts the incidence of Fabry disease. At the early stage

Transmembrane BAX Inhibitor Motif Containing (TMBIM) Family Proteins Perturbs a trans-Golgi Network Enzyme, Gb3 Synthase, and Reduces Gb3 Biosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) is a well known receptor for Shiga toxin (Stx), produced by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli and Shigella dysenteriae. The expression of Gb3 also affects several diseases, including cancer metastasis and Fabry disease, which prompted us to look for factors involved in its metabolism.

Anti-Gb3 monoclonal antibody inhibits angiogenesis and tumor development.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Inhibiting the growth of tumor vasculature represents one of the relevant strategies against tumor progression. Between all the different pro-angiogenic molecular targets, plasma membrane glycosphingolipids have been under-investigated.
