Comprehensive Cellular Glycan Profiling of Glycoproteins and Glycosphingolipids by Glycoblotting and BEP Methods
The glycocalyx is a layer of glycans that covers the surface of every cell. Glycans are covalently attached to proteins and lipids, and are... -
Opposite Functions of Mono- and Disialylated Glycosphingo-Lipids on the Membrane of Cancer Cells
Since cDNAs of glycosyltransferase genes were isolated, and become applicable for genetic engineering of glycosylation patterns, biological functions... -
The Ganglioside Structures: Chemistry and Biochemistry
Gangliosides are the main glycosphingolipids of the central nervous system where they are involved in the processes of cell signaling through... -
Chromatographic Separation and Quantitation of Sphingolipids from the Central Nervous System or Any Other Biological Tissue
Chromatographic separation and purification of an individual lipid to homogeneity have long been introduced. Using this concept, a more precise... -
Age-related neuroimmune signatures in dorsal root ganglia of a Fabry disease mouse model
Pain in Fabry disease (FD) is generally accepted to result from neuronal damage in the peripheral nervous system as a consequence of excess lipid...
-
Current state-of-the-art on ganglioside-mediated immune modulation in the tumor microenvironment
Gangliosides are sialylated glycolipids, mainly present at the cell surface membrane, involved in a variety of cellular signaling events. During...

Functional Impairment of the Nervous System with Glycolipid Deficiencies
Patients with nervous system disorders suffer from impaired cognitive, sensory and motor functions that greatly inconvenience their daily life and... -
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs)
Structural lipids in membranes are composed of three general types of membrane lipids: (glycero)phospholipids, sphingolipids, and sterols.... -
Neuronal Ganglioside and Glycosphingolipid (GSL) Metabolism and Disease
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are a diverse group of membrane components occurring mainly on the surfaces of mammalian cells. They and their metabolites... -
Solid-Phase Binding Assay for Ganglioside Binding of Human Respiroviruses
Human parainfluenza virus types 1 (hPIV-1) and 3 (hPIV-3) belong to the family Paramyxoviridae, subfamily Paramyxoviridae, and genus Respirovirus.... -
Beneficial in vitro effect of N-acetylcysteine and coenzyme Q10 on DNA damage in neurodegenerative Niemann-Pick type C 1 disease: preliminary results
Niemann-Pick type C1 (NP-C1) is a lysosomal storage disease (LSD) caused by mutations in NPC1 gene that lead to defective synthesis of the respective...
