More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: Members of the class of neutral glycosphingolipids. They are the basic units of SPHINGOLIPIDS. They are sphingoids attached via their amino groups to a long chain fatty acyl group. They abnormally accumulate in FABRY DISEASE.  carbohydrate ceramides: index under CEREBROSIDES (one carbohydrate group) or NEUTRAL GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS (more than one carbohydrate group)   
See Also Fabry Disease
Examples Cerebrosides; Globosides; Lactosylceramides; Trihexosylceramides
