Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociation of the insulin receptor and caveolin-1 complex by ganglioside GM3 in the state of insulin resistance.

TL;DR: A pathological feature of insulin resistance in adipocytes is proposed by dissociation of the IR–Cav1 complex by the interactions of IR with GM3 in microdomains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gangliosides as components of lipid membrane domains

TL;DR: Ganglioside features are discussed in this review to show how gangliosides are responsible for the formation of cell lipid membrane domains characterized by a strong positive curvature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Promotion of neuritogenesis in mouse neuroblastoma cells by exogenous gangliosides. Relationship between the effect and the cell association of ganglioside GM1.

TL;DR: Under the experimental conditions used, the stimulation of neuro‐2a cell differentiation by GM1 is related to changes of the plasma membrane properties following association of exogenous GM1 molecules, which would facilitate the spontaneous process of differentiation, or enhance cell responsiveness to differentiating factors present in the serum.
