Disialoganglioside GD3 plays an important role in CD95- and ceramide-induced apoptosis in hematopoietic cells as well as TNF-α-induced apoptosis iin hepatocytes and colon cells , thus acting as a cell death effector.

Previous studies have shown that monoclonal antibodies (M.Ab) to the ganglioside GD3 may induce partial remissions in tumour growth in patients with melanoma. In vitro studies demonstrated that M.Abs to GD3 may also enhance lymphocyte responses to phytohemagglutinin and interleukin

The interaction of mitochondria with proapoptotic proteins activates apoptosis pathways. Previous findings have identified ganglioside GD3 (GD3) as an emerging apoptotic lipid intermediate that targets mitochondria in response to death signals. Using immunoelectron and laser scanning confocal microscopy, we characterize

In the present study we assessed the contribution of acidic sphingomyelinase (ASMase), a ceramide generating enzyme, in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-mediated apoptosis in human colon HT-29 cells. TNF induced apoptosis in HT-29 cells in a time- and dose-dependent fashion. Downregulation

Gangliosides participate in development and tissue differentiation. Cross-linking of the apoptosis-inducing CD95 protein (also called Fas or APO-1) in lymphoid and myeloid tumor cells triggered GD3 ganglioside synthesis and transient accumulation. CD95-induced GD3 accumulation depended on integral receptor "death domains"
