Structures and biological activity of phosphorylated dihydroceramides of Porphyromonas gingivalis

Structures and biological activity of phosphorylated dihydroceramides of Porphyromonas gingivalis

Porphyromonas gingivalis, a recognized periodontal pathogen, synthesizes free ceramides as well as other phosphorylated ceramide lipids. The purpose of this study was to separate complex lipids of P. gingivalis by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and determine the structures and biologi...
