We studied changes during lactation in the relative concentration of individual gangliosides in human milk from mothers delivering preterm and term infants. The relative content of G(D3) was higher in colostrum than in mature milk, and tended to be higher in preterm colostrum than in term colostrum, whereas the relative content of G(M3) was higher in mature milk than in colostrum, and was also higher in term than in preterm milk. As G(D3) is usually detected in developing tissues whereas G(M3) is more abundant in mature tissues, these results suggest a relationship between the presence of individual gangliosides in human milk and immaturity of the mammary gland in mothers of preterm infants.

D007774 Lactation The processes of milk secretion by the maternal MAMMARY GLANDS after PARTURITION. The proliferation of the mammary glandular tissue, milk synthesis, and milk expulsion or let down are regulated by the interactions of several hormones including ESTRADIOL; PROGESTERONE; PROLACTIN; and OXYTOCIN.

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.
