Glucosylceramides (Glucocerebrosides)

Cerebrosides which contain as their polar head group a glucose moiety bound in glycosidic linkage to the hydroxyl group of ceramides. Their accumulation in tissue, due to a defect in beta-glucosidase, is the cause of Gaucher's disease.
Also Known As:
Glucocerebrosides; Ceramide, Glucosyl; Ceramides, Glucosyl; Glucocerebroside; Glucosyl Ceramide; Glucosyl Ceramides; Glucosylceramide
