Product Overview
Description:
Ganglioside GM4 is a sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipid primarily enriched within human central nervous system myelin sheets, while also presenting on specialized fish intestinal epithelia as an attachment site for Gram-negative pathogens. It acts as an immunomodulatory lipid capable of suppressing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and exhibits distinct, multi-species structural variations within adrenal neuroblastoma environments.
Synonyms:
Ganglioside GM4, monoammonium salt; Ganglioside G7 Monosialoganglioside GM4
