[A comparative study of sphingolipids in transplanted melanomas with high and low metastatic activity].

Abstract	The content of sphingolipids in M3 and B16/F10 melanomas with a high metastatic potential and in Claudman's and B16/F1 melanomas with a low metastatic potential was studied. It was shown that the content of total lipid-bound sialic acids and ganglioside GM3 in melanomas with a high metastatic potential is considerably higher than that in melanomas with a low metastatic potential. On the other hand, the ceramide to glucosylceramide molar ratio is higher in melanomas with a low metastatic potential.
