Abstract

Examination was made of GSL distribution in tissues (brain, liver and whole body) of Japanese pilchard.<BR>The following results were obtained : <BR>1) GSL content clearly differed according to tissue. The brain contained all GSLs in large amounts, while CSE was only sparingly present in the liver.<BR>2) Gangliosides in the brain contained polysialoganglioside as the major component. The liver showed high concentrations of monosialogangliosides that mainly constituted GM4, thus showing a tissue-specificity.<BR>3) This is the first report to point out the characteristic distribution of all gangliosides in the entire body of the Japanese pilchard. As a result, GM3 was the major component of it.
