Abstract

Gangliosides isolated from the brain of patients with Creutzfelt-Jakob (C-J) disease were analyzed. The ganglioside current was abnormally low, and the percentage distributions of individual gangliosides and the long-chain base compositions were abnormal. The C20-sphingosine contents of all the ganglioside fractions were low. Abnormalities in ganglioside long-chain bases in adult human brain have been reported previously only in patients with inherited metabolic disorders. These abnormalities in C-J disease seem to be closely related to the cause of the disease.
