Sulfo galactosylceramide (N-Nervonoyl Sulfatide, C24:1 Sulfatide) is a glycolipid and the major sulfolipid species in mature myelin. Sulfo galactosylceramide interacts with C-type lectins and immunoglobulin-like receptors, with the highest affinity for LMIR5. Sulfo galactosylceramide induces MCP-1 production by basophils but not mast cells, and increases NFAT activation via LMIR5. Sulfo galactosylceramide alleviates symptoms and improves survival in a mouse model of chronic relapsing-remitting experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and reduces inflammatory lesions and the number of infiltrating mononuclear cells in the lumbar spinal cord of EAE mice.
