title: Hormonal effects on the development changes of mouse small intestinal glycolipids.
abstract: The composition of intestinal glycosphingolipids during normal and hormone-perturbed development was investigated. The concentrations of glycosphingolipids of mouse small intestine were affected by the injection of thyroxine or cortisone during suckling and weaning periods. GDla was reduced by the hormonal treatment among major gangliosides, GM3, GM1 and GD1a, of mouse small intestine during the suckling period. In contrast, asialo GM1 was precociously produced by the treatment, which scarcely found in control suckling mouse small intestine. The results showed that these hormones were related to developmental alteration of small-intestinal glycolipids.
