Abstract
Glycosphingolipids comprise a lipid class characterized by the presence of sugar moieties attached to a ceramide backbone. The role of glycosphingolipids in pathophysiology has gained relevance in recent years in parallel with the development of analytical technologies. Within this vast family of molecules, gangliosides modified by acetylation represent a minority. Described for the first time in the 1980s, their relation to pathologies has resulted in increased interest in their function in normal and diseased cells. This review presents the state of the art on 9-O acetylated gangliosides and their link to cellular disorders.
