General description

C6-NBD Lactosyl ceramide is a fluorescent derivative of biologically active compound lactosyl ceramide. Lactosyl ceramide is a glycosphingolipid that is present on neutrophils and macrophages.

application

C6-NBD Lactosyl ceramide may be used for phospholipid labeling and fluorescence-lifetime imaging microscopy (FILM) with respect to cell membranes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lactosyl ceramide is a precursor of various glycosphingolipids like oligoglycosylceramides and gangliosides involved in various vital cellular processes. It plays a major role in signaling cascades leading to phenotypic changes such as adhesion, migration, cell proliferation and angiogenesis. Lactosyl ceramide is a crucial molecule involved in osteoclastogenesis mediated by macrophage-colony stimulating factor.

The ABCA1 transporter orchestrates cellular lipid homeostasis by promoting the release of cholesterol to plasmatic acceptors. The molecular mechanism is, however, unknown. We report here on the biophysical analysis in living HeLa cells of the ABCA1 lipid microenvironment at the

Glycosphingolipids and their metabolites play important roles in a variety of biological processes. Several signal molecules are localized in a glycolipid-enriched microdomain on the cell surface, and their signals are regulated by the glycolipid composition. However, the function of glycolipids

Glycosphingolipids (GSLs), cell type-specific markers which change dramatically during ontogenesis and oncogenesis, have been implicated as playing major roles in cellular interactions and control of cell proliferation in multicellular organisms. These functional roles have been partially clarified through two types

Although lactosylceramide (LacCer) plays a pivotal role in the biosynthesis of nearly all the major glycosphingolipids, its function in regulating cellular function has begun to emerge only recently. Our current opinion is that several physiologically critical molecules such as modified/oxidized

Carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions are rarely considered in biologically relevant situations such as cell recognition and adhesion. One Ca(2+)-mediated homotypic interaction between two Lewis(x) determinants (Le(x)) has been proposed to drive cell adhesion in murine embryogenesis. Here, we confirm the existence of
