WEHI-3 cells, derived from a BALB/c mouse, are a myelomonocytic leukemic cell line with macrophage-like properties. We have isolated, purified and characterized the monosialogangliosides from WEHI-3 cells by 1D-HPTLC, 2D-HPTLC, enzymatic degradation, HPTLC-immunostaining, gas-liquid chromatography and fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry (FAB-MS). Quantitative 2D-HPTLC shows two monosialogangliosides are the major components, constituting 77% of the total, with a third monosialoganglioside being 3%. The two major components were identified as (NeuAc)GM1b and (NeuAc)GM1b-GalNAc and the minor component as (NeuAc)GM1b-GalNAc-Gal. The presence of GM1b in this myelomonocytic cell line is consistent with its presence in other murine immune cells and tissues. GM1b-GalNAc and GM1b-GalNAc-Gal have been reported in T-lineage cells but not in resident or stimulated murine macrophages. Each of these monosialogangliosides belongs to the asialoGM1 synthetic pathway. Preliminary results indicate a disialo member of this pathway, GDlc, may also be present as a minor component. This ganglioside pathway, containing species which are not sialylated on the internal galactose, appears to be dominant in and may be characteristic of murine immune cells.
