| Research Abstract |
In the study of the constituents of echinoderms, we found that the echinoderms such as starfish had the glycosphingolipids (GSLs) which improvedosteoporosis. However, we did not know it in detail what kind of partial structure was necessary. This time, we obtained GSLs from Acanthaster planci and the compounds whichwere provided by rebuilding it chemically again. The partial structure, necessary for active expression, was suggested by cell-based assay.
