Sphingolipids were significantly altered in the diabetic kidney cortex. Total content of sphingolipid classes (A) and specific species of Gb3 (B), glucosylceramide (GluCer) (C), galactosylceramide (GalCer) (D), and monosialo-dihexosyl gangliosides (GM3) (E) were analyzed. Data are presented as means ± SEM, n = 6 per group; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
