• Beschreibung

  Galactosylceramides are glycosphingolipids that contain galactose attached to a ceramide containing an N-acyl hydroxy or non-hydroxy fatty acid. They are metabolic precursors to sulfatide , found primarily in nerve tissues, and are the main glycosphingolipids in the central nervous system.^1,2 Galactosylceramides are involved in a multitude of cellular processes including cell agglutination, cellular signaling in glycosynapses, cellular development, and activation of T cells.^1,2,3 They accumulate in globoid cells in the brain of patients with Krabbe disease, a disorder characterized by a deficiency in galactosylcerebrosidase activity.² This product contains non-hydroxy galactosylceramides with primarily C24:0 and C24:1 fatty acyl chain lengths. As this product is derived from a natural source, there may be variations in the sphingoid backbone.

• Definition

  ChEBI: Beta-D-galactosyl-N-(tetracosanoyl)sphingosine is a N-acyl-beta-D-galactosylsphingosine in which the acyl group is tetracosananoyl. It has a role as a mouse metabolite. It is functionally related to a tetracosanoic acid.
