Cell surface expression of ceramide and complex sphingolipids.

<p>Depicted is the mean fluorescence intensity as analyzed by flow cytometry using monoclonal antibodies for ceramide, lactosylceramide globotriaosylceramide and dodecasaccharideceramide, and cholera toxin subunit B for ganglioside GM1 after MCSF differentiation (d4) and lipoprotein loading (d6) with eLDL, oxLDL or control (MCSF) <b>(A)</b> ceramide, <b>(B)</b> lactosylceramide/CDw17, <b>(C)</b> globotriaosylceramide, <b>(D)</b> dodecasaccharideceramide and <b>(E)</b> GM1 ganglioside. n = 3. Data on surface ceramide and lactosylceramide have been published previously [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0166798#pone.0166798.ref013" target="_blank">13</a>].
