Glucosylceramide (Soy) is a major sphingolipid of plant tissue and, thus, abundant in nature and in dietary food sources. | [Biological Activity]
The lipid backbones of mammalian GluCer (sphingosined18:1(delta4)and ceramide) induce cell death (apoptosis) and inhibit colon carcinogenesisit is critical to know the structures of GluCer present in plants as a first step toward understanding this potential link between diet and cancer. Previously unexplained fragmentations th at were diagnostic for the type of sphingoid base backbone (i.e. by homolytic cleavage of the doubly allylic C-6-C-7 bond to yield a stable distonic allylic radical cation and an allylic radical neutral) were also identified. Hence this method should be useful in the identification of double bonds in sphingolipidsand structure-function relationships between sphingolipids and colon carcinogenesis.? |
