Novel internal standards have been synthesised for the quantitative determination by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) of the sphingolipids that accumulate in lysosomal storage diseases. The [d4]C16- and [d47]C24-isoforms of galactosylceramide (CMH), lactosylceramide (CDH), globotriaosylceramide (CTH), cerebroside sulphate, sphingomyelin and G(M1)-
We have detected biological toxins using localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and synthetic glycosyl ceramides (β-lactoside, globosyl trisaccharide (Gb3), or GM1 pentasaccharide) attached to gold (Au) nanoparticles. The particle diameters ranged from 5-100 nm. The detection sensitivity for three toxins
The transbilayer movement of glycosphingolipids has been characterized in Golgi, ER, plasma, and model membranes using spin-labeled and fluorescent analogues of the monohexosylsphingolipids glucosylceramide and galactosylceramide and of the dihexosylsphingolipid lactosylceramide. In large unilamellar lipid vesicles, monohexosylsphingolipids underwent a slow

Mammalian glycolipid transfer proteins (GLTPs) facilitate the selective transfer of glycolipids between lipid vesicles in vitro. Recent structural determinations of the apo- and glycolipid-liganded forms of human GLTP have provided the first insights into the molecular architecture of the protein
Hypertrophy is central to several heart diseases; however, not much is known about the role of glycosphingolipids (GSLs) in this phenotype. Since GSLs have been accorded several physiological functions, we sought to determine whether these compounds affect cardiac hypertrophy. By
