Overview mass spectra of Gb3Cer lipoforms derived from: cortex (A); medulla (B); and pelvis (C) of the male piglet. The MS1 spectra depict the m/z range from 1020 to 1180 encompassing Gb3Cer variants with variable fatty acid from C16:0 up to C24:1/C24:0 as marked in the spectrum. All Gb3Cer variants harbor constant sphingosine (d18:1) in their respective ceramide moiety. The asterisks indicate hydroxylation of the ceramide portion, most likely of the fatty acid, of Gb3Cer variants in the male: cortex (A); medulla (B); and pelvis (C).
