The quantitative evolution of 10 polar lipids was examined in the sciatic nerves of normal and trembler mice between the ages of 3 days and 60 days. In normal nerves, the polar lipids accumulated slowly until the age of 9 days. A period of rapid accumulation then took place until 18 days of age, after which the phospholipids plateaued, while the glycolipid content continued to increase at a slower rate. The results obtained for the sciatic nerves of trembler mice show that the accumulation of all the polar lipids studied, except phosphatidylcholine and hydroxysulfatides, is abnormal from the earliest stages of postnatal development, and strongly support the view that the primary disorder in the trembler peripheral nervous system is one of dysmyelination. With the exception of cardiolipin, all the lipids in the trembler nerves stopped accumulating at the age of 18 days. The cerebrosides were the lipids the most affected severely at all ages.
