Erythrocyte and porcine intestinal glycosphingolipids recognized by F4 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli.

PLoS ONE, 2011
Enterotoxigenic F4-fimbriated Escherichia coli is associated with diarrheal disease in neonatal and postweaning pigs. The F4 fimbriae mediate attachment of the bacteria to the pig intestinal epithelium, enabling an efficient delivery of diarrhea-inducing

Ganglioside GM2: a potential biomarker for cholangiocarcinoma

Journal of International Medical Research, 2020
Objective To investigate the expression of glycosphingolipids in serum and tissue from patients with cholangiocarcinoma compared with healthy controls. Methods Nanospray ionization-linear ion trap mass spectrometry (NSI-MS n ) was used to demonstrate the

Glycosphingolipids within membrane contact sites influence their function as signaling hubs in neurodegenerative diseases

FEBS Open Bio, 2023
Intracellular organelles carry out many of their functions by engaging in extensive interorganellar communication through specialized membrane contact sites (MCSs) formed where two organelles tether to each other or to the plasma membrane (PM) without ...

Role of Globotriaosylceramide in Physiology and Pathology

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
At first glance, the biological function of globoside (Gb) clusters appears to be that of glycosphingolipid (GSL) receptors for bacterial toxins that mediate host-pathogen interaction.

Determination of long-chain base in glycosphingolipids with fluorescamine

Journal of Lipid Research, 1974
A method is described for determining the longchain base content of glycosphingolipids after acid hydrolysis, using the new reagent fluorescamine. The reaction is sensitive and can be used to characterize or measure glycosphingolipids in quantities ...

Modulation of phospholipase A2 by electrostatic fields and dipole potential of glycosphingolipids in monolayers

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Phospholipase A2 activity against mixed monolayers of dilauroylphosphatidic acid or dilauroylphosphatidylcholine with glycosphingolipids can be reversibly modulated by external constant electrostatic fields.

Review and Proposal of Alternative Technologies for Comprehensive and Reliable Newborn Screening Using Paper Borne Urine Samples for Lysosomal Storage Disorders: Glycosphingolipid Disorders

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 ...

Distribution of glycosphingolipids in the serum lipoproteins of normal human subjects and patients with hypo- and hyperlipidemias

Journal of Lipid Research, 1976
Five glycosphingolipids (GSL), glucosylceramide, lactosylceramide, trihexosylceramide, globoside, and hematoside (GM3) were studied in serum from normal human subjects and patients with dyslipoproteinemia and found to be exclusively associated with the ...

Glycosphingolipids in Filamentous Fungi: Biological Roles and Potential Applications in Cosmetics and Health Foods

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Filamentous fungi are a group of economically important fungi used in the production of fermented foods, industrial enzymes, and secondary metabolites. Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) as constituents of lipid rafts are involved in growth, differentiation, and ...

Immune Response Modulation by Tumor-Secreted Glycosphingolipids [PDF]

, 2014
Although originally considered merely structural components of cellular membranes, glycosphingolipids (GSL) arenow recognized as having critical effects on cellular physiology, including proliferation, differentiation, viraltransformation and ontogenesis.
