Gangliosidoses

  • Chapter
Lipids and Lipidoses

Abstract

The term gangliosides* was introduced by Klenk for neuraminic acid-containing glycolipids which he found (1939—1942) in the brains of subjects with infantile amaurotic family idiocy. The neuraminic acid content of gangliosides permitted differentiation from other carbohydrate-containing lipids such as cere-brosides which accumulate in Gaucher’s disease.
