Abstract
The goal of this study is to supplement the composition and nature of sphingophosphonolipids diversity from edible mollusks (Mytilus galloprovincialis, Eobania vermiculata) and from jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca, organisms rich in phosphonolipids. M. galloprovincialis contained a major ceramide 2-aminoethylphosphonate (CAEP-IM) and a minor ceramide that was detected chromatographically as the methyl analog (CAEP-IIM). In CAEP-IM, saturated fatty acids (FA) of 14, 16 and 18 carbons amounted to 68.8%; also 52.5% dihydroxy bases were detected. On thin layer chromatography, the Rf for CAEP-IIM was smaller than the Rf for CAEP-IM because of an increase of 22.0% in 2OH-16:0 FA, plus 29.2% trihydroxy bases (phytosphingosine). Similarly, a ceramide 2-methylaminoethylphosphonate (CAEP-IIE, 1.5% of phospholipids) was quantitated in Eobania (apart from the previously reported major CAEP, 7.6%). In CAEP-IIE, saturated and hydroxy FA of 14, 16 and 18 carbons amounted to 37.0 and 37.8%; 29.1% dihydroxy and 23.0% trihydroxy bases were detected in the same molecule. Eobania's unsaturated FA percentages (total lipids: 66.3, polar: 47.5, neutral: 59.0) were similar to those previously found for other land snails. A suite of two minor CAEP (CAEP-IIP, CAEP-IIIP) was quantitated in Pelagia at 2.0 and 1.3% of phospholipids (apart from the previously reported major CAEP, 21.0%) identified chromatographically as methyl analogs. In CAEP-IIP, saturated FA of 14, 16, 18 and 19 carbons amounted to 56.0%; 12.6% dihydroxy and 34.1% trihydroxy bases were also detected in CAEP-IIP. The Rf CAEP-IIIP<Rf CAEP-IIP owing to an increase of +8.5% of hydroxy FA and +12.3% of trihydroxy bases. The compositions of CAEP-IIM and CAEP-IIE appear to be specific of each organism, while the composition of molluscan or jellyfish major sphingophosphonolipids appears not specific.

Abstract
The goal of this study is to elucidate and identify several sphingophosphonolipids from Aurelia aurita, an abundant but harmless Aegean jellyfish, in which they have not previously been described. Total lipids of A. aurita were 0.031-0.036% of fresh tissue, and the lipid phosphorus content was 1.3-1.7% of total lipids. Phosphonolipids were 21.7% of phospholipids and consisted of a major ceramide aminoethylphosphonate (CAEP-I; 18.3%), as well as three minor CAEP (II, III, IV) methyl analogs at 1.3, 1.1, and 1.0%, respectively. The remaining phospholipid composition was: phosphatidylcholine, 44.5%, including 36.2% glycerylethers; phosphatidylethanolamine, 18.6%, including 4.5% glycerylethers; cardiolipin, 5.6%; phosphatidylinositol, 2.6%; and lysophosphatidylcholine, 5.0%. In CAEP-I, saturated fatty acids of 14-18 carbon chain length were 70.8% and were combined with 57.3% dihydroxy bases and 23.4% trihydroxy bases. The suite of the three minor CAEP methyl analogs were of the same lipid class based on the head group, but they separated into three different components because of their polarity as follows: CAEP-II and CAEP-III differentiation from the major CAEP-I was mainly due to the increased fatty acid unsaturation and not to a different long-chain base, but the CAEP-IV differentiation from CAEP-I, apart from fatty acid unsaturation, was due to the increased content of hydroxyl groups originated from both hydroxy fatty acids and trihydroxy long-chain bases. Saturated fatty acids were predominant in total (76.7%), polar (83.0%), and neutral lipids (67.6%) of A. aurita. The major phospholipid components of A. aurita were comparable to those previously found in a related organism (Pelagia noctiluca), which can injure humans.

Abstract
A novel glycosphingolipid containing inositol phosphate as an acidic group has been demonstrated in whole tissues of the porcine roundworm, Ascaris suum. The thin layer chromatographic pattern of the total acidic glycolipid revealed the presence of several components, of which a major component (named AGL) with positive reactions toward both orcinol-sulfuric acid (sugar) and molybdate (phosphate) spray reagents was isolated and purified by the use of successive column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex and silicic acid (latrobeads). From structural studies including compositional sugar analysis, hydrogen fluoride degradation, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, the structure of AGL was deduced to be Gal alpha 1-2Ins(1-->)-P-Cer. Aliphatic constituents were lignoceric acid and its 2-hydroxy homologue as the principal fatty acids, and octadecasphinganine and branched heptadecasphinganine as the major sphingoids.

Abstract
Systematic elucidations of the chemical structures of glycosphingolipids from members of the phyla Arthropoda (class:insecta) of the Protostomia have shown several characteristic differences to those of the Deuterostomia, e.g., the Vertebrata. The ceramide constituents of the arthropod sphingolipids are C14:1- and C16:1-sphingoid and a majority of saturated C18-, C20-, C22- and C24-fatty acids. The GSL of the dipteran insects, L. caesar and C. vicina, consist of a series of homologous compounds of increasing sugar chain length. The carbohydrate moieties of these arthropod GSL are all derived from one unique neutral sugar core sequence, the arthro-series. The longest member known, an arthrononaosylceramide has the structure Gal beta,3GalNAc beta,3GlcNAc beta,3Gal beta,3GalNAc alpha,4GalNAc beta,4GlcNAc beta,3Man beta,4Glc beta Cer. Three pentahexosylceramides have been characterized that differ in their nonreducing terminus, i.e., IV4GalNAc alpha-Ap4Cer, IV3Gal alpha-Ap4Cer and IV3Gal beta-Ap4Cer. A large repertoire of structural variations of the arthro-series GSL is created by two types of derivatisations of the neutral carbohydrate core: addition of a zwitterionic 2-aminoethylphosphate group in phosphodiester linkage to the 6-position of the III-N-acetylglucosamine of the arthrotriaosylceramide core and/or substitution of a terminal galactose in 3-position by a glucuronic acid residue. The latter acidic arthro-series GSL were given the name arthrosides. Preliminary results have indicated that the blowfly GSL component distribution is strongly organ specific. GSL of various larval organs are distinguished by the length of their neutral core carbohydrate chain, as well as, the degree of PEtn- and GlcA-substitutions. Normal human sera contain antibodies that recognize epitopes on arthro-series GSL. Thereby, sites of the neutral carbohydrate chain, as well as, the zwitterionic and acidic epitopes are involved in the immune recognition. In a pathological condition, a M-protein of patients with autoallergic demyelinating peripheral neuropathy was found to react strongly with a glucuronic acid-containing molecular structure on arthrosides. Some indication was obtained for a possible functional role of glucuronic acid in dipteran-cell adhesion by using a mouse monoclonal antibody, mAb CAF-I. This antibody, directed against an arthroside epitope involving glucuronic acid, could induce an in vitro detachment of insect cells from one another or from their substratum. Obviously, present research on the GSL of insects is only at an early stage. Nevertheless, from the results available so far it was become increasingly apparent that a new chapter in our knowledge of GSL structures has been opened.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
From muscle tissues of the marine snail (Turbo cornutus) aminoalkylphosphonyl cerebrosides, which had been shown to be present in visceral parts were isolated. Their structure was determined by degradative methods and by characterization of components by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The aminoalkylphosphonyl cerebroside fraction consisted of a major portion of 1-O-[6'-O-(N-methylaminoethylphosphonyl) galactosyl] ceramide and a minor portion of a novel lipid, 1-O-[6'-O-(aminoethylphosphonyl)galactosyl] ceramide. The fatty acids of the fraction were mainly palmitic (53.3%) and 2-hydroxy palmitic acid (14.6%). The long chain bases were mainly dihydroxy C22: 2(36.6%), C18:1 (14.6%) and trihydroxy bases were also found as minor components.
