Abstract excerpt

Study of blood group A- and B-active glycosphingolipid content of the epithelium of the large intestine of 16 strains of inbred rats led to the discovery of two related strains, SHR and WKY, devoid of A-active glycolipids, whereas all strains expressed B-active glycolipids. This finding evidenced...
