Changes in ganglioside composition, biosynthesis and individual distribution were studied in hippocampal regions after unilateral destruction of the entorhinal cortex. After 1 and 3 days postlesion (dpl), a decrease in ganglioside content was detected in area dentata (AD) and pyramidal cell regions CA1-CA3 (CA), both ipsilateral and contralateral to the lesion. By 5 dpl all the values had retur...
A method for the separation and quantification of a complex ganglioside mixture from a clinically available amount (5 ml) of human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is described. After reduction of the CSF volume by ultrafiltration, gangliosides are extracted with methanol/chloroform, then separated and quantified by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) and direct densitometry. For purifi...
Anti-ganglioside antibodies (Abs) are strongly associated with axonal forms of Guillain Barré syndrome (GBS). Some studies indicate that these Abs, including those with GD1a reactivity, are associated with poor prognosis and/or incomplete recovery. We recently demonstrated that a disease-relevant anti-ganglioside Ab with GD1a reactivity inhibits axon regeneration after PNS injury in an animal m...
Mammalian sialidase Neu4, ubiquitously expressed in human tissues, is located in the lysosomal and mitochondrial lumen and has broad substrate specificity against sialylated glycoconjugates. To investigate whether Neu4 is involved in ganglioside catabolism, we transfected beta-hexosaminidase-deficient neuroglia cells from a Tay-Sachs patient with a Neu4-expressing plasmid and demonstrated the c...
The reactivity of a panel of antiganglioside monoclonal antibodies with a number of melanoma cell lines having different ganglioside composition profiles was studied. One cell line synthesized only GM3, one produced both GM3 and GD2, 2 had GM3 and GD3 as their major gangliosides, and 2 others synthesized approximately equal amounts of GM3, GM2, GD3, and GD2 gangliosides. Antibody reactivity wit...
Ganglioside biosynthesis is strictly regulated by the activities of glycosyltransferases and is necessarily controlled at the levels of gene transcription and posttranslational modification. Cells can switch between expressing simple and complex gangliosides or between different series within these two groups during brain development. The sequential biosynthesis of gangliosides in parallel enzy...
Secretory diarrhea caused by cholera toxin (CT) is initiated by binding of CT's B subunit (CTB) to GM1-ganglioside on the surface of intestinal cells. Lactoferrin, a breast milk glycoprotein, has shown protective effect against several enteropathogens. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of bovine-lactoferrin (bLF) on CT-induced intestinal fluid accumulation in mice, and the int...
Oleyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-α-D-glucopyranoside (1) was previously shown to exhibit antimitotic activity on glioma (C6) and melanoma (A375) cell lines. Preliminary studies about its mechanism of action using (1)H MAS NMR suggested that 1 may be altering the metabolism of lipids. We have now studied the effect of 1 on the fatty acid, sphingolipid and ganglioside content in a line of carcinomic hum...
Gangliosides serve as receptors for internalization and infection by members of the polyomavirus family. Specificity is determined by recognition of carbohydrate moieties on the ganglioside by the major viral capsid protein VP1. For the mouse polyomavirus (MuPyV), gangliosides with terminal sialic acids in specific linkages are essential. Although many biochemical and cell culture experiments h...
To examine at which stage the unusual ganglioside composition observed in adult retinal photoreceptor cells was established, and to see whether ganglioside changes could be correlated to distinct maturational events, quantitative and qualitative variations in gangliosides within pure sheets of photoreceptors during postnatal differentiation and aging of retina were studied. Retinas were separat...
