NEUTRAL GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS OF RAT LIVER AND HEPATOMAS: COMPOSITION, BIOSYNTHESIS AND ALTERATIONS IN TUMORIGENESIS

VIVIAN PAIGE WALTER, Purdue University

Abstract

Neutral glycosphingolipids (NGSL) undergo alterations as one result of the tumorigenic process. The purpose of this study was to examine these alterations in transplanted hepatoma lines and to determine if selective enzymatic synthesis was responsible. NGSL were extracted and purified from tra
