GM1 ganglioside-independent intoxication by Cholera toxin
Cholera toxin (CT) enters and intoxicates host cells after binding cell surface receptors via its B subunit (CTB). We have recently shown that in addition to the previously described binding partner ganglioside GM1, CTB binds to fucosylated proteins. Using flow cytometric analysis of primary human jejunal epithelial cells and granulocytes, we now show that CTB binding correlates with expression...
متن کاملPrevention of chemically induced changes in synaptosomal membrane order by ganglioside GM1 and alpha-tocopherol.
Synaptosomal membrane order has been studied by analysis of light depolarization by fluorescent dyes intercalated within membranes following exposure to various environmental toxicants. Two probes were explored: 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH), signaling predominantly from the lipid-rich membrane core, and 1-[4-(trimethylamino)phenyl]-6-phenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (TMA-DPH), reporting from the ...
متن کاملTrial of ganglioside GM1 in acute stroke.
Ganglioside GM1 (100 mg) was given daily by intramuscular injection for 28 days in a double-blind placebo controlled trial of acute stroke. No significant difference was detected in a 6 month follow-up period between well matched control and active groups. Although the number of patients studied was small the findings are believed to indicate that GM1 is unlikely to be of value in the treatment...
متن کاملThe biologic role of ganglioside in neuronal differentiation--effects of GM1 ganglioside on human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.
Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell is a cloned cell line which has many attractive features for the study of neuronal proliferation and neurite outgrowth, because it has receptors for insulin, IGF-I and PDGF. Gangliosides are sialic acid containing glycosphingolipids which form an integral part of the plasma membrane of many mammalian cells. They inhibit cell growth mediated by tyrosine kinase re...
متن کاملGM1 Ganglioside Inhibits β‐Amyloid Oligomerization Induced by Sphingomyelin
β-Amyloid (Aβ) oligomers are neurotoxic and implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Neuronal plasma membranes may mediate formation of Aβ oligomers in vivo. Membrane components sphingomyelin and GM1 have been shown to promote aggregation of Aβ; however, these studies were performed under extreme, non-physiological conditions. We demonstrate that physiological levels of GM1 , organized in nanodomains...
