Sphingolipid and glycosphingolipid content of control and NPC1 lymph nodes

Lipid content (ng/mg protein)SPHS1PCharged GSLsNeutral GSLs
Control 5.26 ± 0.17 0.21 ± 0.01 13.3 63.0 
NPC1 53.54 ± 4.53 0.57 ± 0.09 14.4 88.2

Control 5.26 ± 0.17 0.21 ± 0.01 13.3 63.0 
NPC1 53.54 ± 4.53 0.57 ± 0.09 14.4 88.2 

Liquid-chromatography tandem MS data were normalized to protein content of pooled inguinal lymph nodes; average values ± SD from 2 replicate experiments are shown (glycosphingolipid determinations were performed only once). Internal standards were used for the quantitation of lipids.

SPH, sphingosine.
