Cultured human fibroblasts were fed with two differently labelled sulphatide molecules [one labelled on C-3 of the sphingosine (Sph) moiety [(Sph-3H]sulphatide), the second on C-1 of stearic acid [(stearoyl-14C]sulphatide)], and the intracellular metabolic fate of radioactivity was monitored. Incorporated radioactivity was almost all recovered in the total lipid extract, regardless of the labelling position of the added sulphatide; however, large differences in the level of incorporation occurred among labelled glycosphingolipids. For example, sphingomyelin was present as the major radiolabelled lipid after [Sph-3H]-sulphatide incubation, but was detectable only in trace amounts after [stearoyl-14C]sulphatide administration; in the latter case the radioactivity was located predominantly in glycerophospholipids. From this finding it can be inferred that the free long-chain base (sphingosine) that originates from lysosomal catabolism of sulphatide is mainly, and quite specifically, utilized for sphingomyelin biosynthesis, whereas the ceramide moiety is not; conversely the fatty acid released from ceramide is non-specifically re-utilized for phospholipid biosynthesis.
