Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) is a monosialylated ganglioside and the prototypic ganglioside for those containing one sialic acid residue. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) is one of the most abundant gangliosides in the brain which provides neuroprotection. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) exhibits anti-inflammatory property. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) has a well-balanced amphiphilic behavior. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) can reduce the fluidity of the plasma membrane that implies a retention and enrichment of the ganglioside in specific membrane domains that are called lipid rafts. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) can modify the process of differentiation, amplifies responses to neurotrophic factors, protects against excitatory amino acid-related neurotoxicity. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) can alleviate acute nerve cell damage through blocking cytotoxicity and potentiating neurotophic factors. Ganglioside GM1 (ammonium) can be studied in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

β-Galactosyl-C18-ceramide is a bioactive molecule that promotes the regulation of nerve cells, regulates protein kinase C activity, and affects hormone receptors. β-Galactosyl-C18-ceramide is widely used in neuroscience research to explore its effects on nerve cell growth and function. The regulatory function of β-Galactosyl-C18-ceramide makes it a potential application prospect in compound development and disease inhibition.

UDP-GlcNAc (UDP-N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine) is an important component and precursor of bacterial peptidoglycan. UDP-GlcNAc is a nucleotide sugar used by Glycosyltransferases to synthesize glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans, glycolipids, and glycoRNA. UDP-GlcNAc also serves as the donor substrate for forming O-GlcNAc, a dynamic intracellular protein modification involved in diverse signaling and disease processes. UDP-GlcNAc is the sugar nucleotide donor for the synthesis of O-GlcNAc modified proteins. UDP-GlcNAc also acts as a full agonist of the P2Y₁₄ receptor and inhibits the formation of cAMP. UDP-GlcNAc can be used in studies related to bacterial infections.

Antihepatotoxic agent-1 is a cerebroside present in Lycium chinense Fruits with antihepatotoxic activity. Antihepatotoxic agent-1 exerts a protective effect by blocking the release of alanine aminotransferase and sorbitol dehydrogenase from primary cultured rat hepatocytes intoxicated with carbon tetrachloride. Antihepatotoxic agent-1 can be used in studies related to liver injury.
