A comparative study of phospho- and glycosphingolipids of cultured skin fibroblast from healthy donors and from patients with systemic sclerodermia (SSD) was carried out. It was shown that the total phospholipid content in SSD fibroblasts is elevated. No significant changes in the concentration of neutral glycosphingolipids were observed. The ganglioside composition of SSD cell cultures differs significantly from that of healthy donor cells. The concentration of the gangliosides, GM3 and GM1, is decreased; no ganglioside GD1a was found in SSD fibroblasts. The data obtained are suggestive of changes in the properties of fibroblast surface which can be manifested both in the impaired reception of matrix proteins and in the impairment of basic properties of the membrane. These changes are well correlated with the results of previous studies on the AMP cyclase system.

D010743 Phospholipids Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system.

D005732 Gangliosides A subclass of ACIDIC GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS. They contain one or more sialic acid (N-ACETYLNEURAMINIC ACID) residues. Using the Svennerholm system of abbrevations, gangliosides are designated G for ganglioside, plus subscript M, D, or T for mono-, di-, or trisialo, respectively, the subscript letter being followed by a subscript arabic numeral to indicated sequence of migration in thin-layer chromatograms. (From Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1997) Ganglioside,Sialoglycosphingolipids
D006028 Glycosphingolipids Lipids containing at least one monosaccharide residue and either a sphingoid or a ceramide (CERAMIDES). They are subdivided into NEUTRAL GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS comprising monoglycosyl- and oligoglycosylsphingoids and monoglycosyl- and oligoglycosylceramides; and ACIDIC GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS which comprises sialosylglycosylsphingolipids (GANGLIOSIDES); SULFOGLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS (formerly known as sulfatides), glycuronoglycosphingolipids, and phospho- and phosphonoglycosphingolipids.
