  • Title: The glycosphingolipids of human prostate tissue.
    Author: Shiraishi T, Kinter MT, Mills SE, Lippert MC, Bova GS, Young WW.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1988 Jul 22; 961(2):160-9. PubMed ID: 3390453.
    Abstract:
    Neutral glycolipids and gangliosides from surgical samples of benign human prostate tissue were analyzed by chemical, enzymatic and immunostaining procedures. The neutral glycolipids consisted of ceramide mono-, di-, tri- and tetrahexosides of the globo series plus paragloboside. The monosialoganglioside fraction contained GM3 and GM1 plus multiple species of monosialylated lactosamine-containing structures, including sialyl-alpha-2----3paragloboside plus at least two compounds having a non-reducing terminal sialyl alpha 2----6Gal linkage. The disialoganglioside fraction contained GD3 as the major component plus GD1a, GD2 and GD1b. GT1b was the major trisialoganglioside.
