On the role of sulfolipids in mammalian metabolism

Abstract
Sulfolipids of mammalian origin include sulfosphingolipids, sulfoglycerolipids and steroid sulfates. Sulfosphingolipids (sulfogalactosylceramide) may be involved in sodium transport, interaction of opiates with their receptors, activation of oxygen radical generating system, and blood coagulation Factor XII. Sulfoglycerolipids and steroid sulfates may be involved in spermatogenesis and sperm capacitation.
