glycolipid/sarcoma

The molecular mechanisms involved in the inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATPase of Yoshida sarcoma cells by a cytotoxic protein (P6) from cobra venom have been examined. The overall data obtained using purified (Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATPase of Yoshida sarcoma cells suggest that cytotoxin P6

The level of the neutral glycolipid, Galnac beta 1 leads to 4 Gal beta 1 leads to 4Glc leads to Cer (asialo GM2), in BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts transformed by Kirsten murine sarcoma virus (3T3KIMSV) was greatly increased compared to the nontransformed parental cells (3T3). This elevated chemical

1. The total lipid was extracted from BP8/C3H ascites-sarcoma cells with acetone, light petroleum, pyridine and chloroform-methanol successively. Each extract was treated with mild alkali. The alkali-stable lipids from the pyridine and chloroform-methanol extracts, which included the glycolipids,

Studies have been continued on the synthesis of glycolipids by the NIL 2 line of hamster cells. Several clones were isolated from this line. These clones vary in morphology, saturation density, and glycolipid composition. Contrary to expectation there was no correlation between saturation density

Glycosphingolipid alterations upon viral transformation are well documented. Transformation of mouse 3T3 cells with murine sarcoma viruses results in marked decreases in the levels of gangliosides GM1 and GD1a and an increase in gangliotriaosylceramide. The transforming oncogenes of these viruses
