Chronic Alcohol Intake and Some Monogalactosyl Glycolipids of the Rat Brain

The effect on monogalactosyl glycolipid complement (cerebrosides with hydroxy and non‐hydroxy fatty acids, sulphatides and monogalactosyldiglyceride) after 38 weeks of feeding 25% sucrose‐32% ethyl alcohol have been studied. Chronic alcohol intake produced a statistically significant increase of cerebrosides with hydroxy and non‐hydroxy fatty acids and monogalactosyldi‐glyceride as well as decrease of sulphatides in male Wistar rats brain.
