Lipidomics of Glycosphingolipids [PDF]
Metabolites, 2012 Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) contain one or more sugars that are attached to a sphingolipid moiety, usually to a ceramide, but in rare cases also to a sphingoid base.

The repertoire of glycosphingolipids recognized by Vibrio cholerae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The binding of cholera toxin to the ganglioside GM1 as the initial step in the process leading to diarrhea is nowadays textbook knowledge. In contrast, the knowledge about the mechanisms for attachment of Vibrio cholerae bacterial cells to the intestinal

Glycosphingolipids and neuroinflammation in Parkinson’s disease
Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2020 Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons of the nigrostriatal pathway and the formation of neuronal inclusions known as Lewy bodies.

Glycosphingolipids in human parasites
FEBS Open Bio, 2023 Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are comprised of glycans (oligosaccharides) linked to a lipid containing a sphingosine moiety. They are major membrane components in cells of most animals, and importantly, they also occur in parasitic protozoans and worms that ...

Glycosphingolipids: synthesis and functions [PDF]
FEBS Journal, 2013 Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) comprise a heterogeneous group of membrane lipids formed by a ceramide backbone covalently linked to a glycan moiety. Hundreds of different glycans can be linked to tens of different ceramide molecules, giving rise to an astonishing variety of structurally different compounds, each of which has the potential for a specific ...

Dysregulated metabolism of ceramides and glycosphingolipids in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Journal of Lipid ResearchAlterations in sphingolipid metabolism have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), yet findings regarding peripheral sphingolipid changes remain inconsistent.

Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2021 Few current methods are efficient to detect a high number of lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in newborn screening. Therefore, we propose a stepwise procedure that starts with the use of paper borne urine samples (Berry-Woolf specimen) for the ...

Characterization of glycosphingolipids by direct inlet chemical ionization mass spectrometry
Journal of Lipid Research, 1980 Permethylated derivatives of cerebrosides and ceramide di-, tri-, tetra-, and penta-hexosides were analyzed by the direct inlet ammonia chemical ionization (CI) mass spectrometry. In the CI mass spectra, the fragment ions produced by the loss of methanol
