Research Abstract |
Gangliosides (acidic glycosphingolipids) expressed on the plasma membrane are highly expressed in nerve tissues of vertebrates, and are involved in their development and functions. Our study clarified that glial cells components of nerve tissues, also express gangliosides on the plasma membrane, and glial cells in gangliosides-deficient mice were abnormally activated in the brain and enhanced sensitivity for inflammatory cytokines.
