Abstract
Quantitative and qualitative changes in the composition of sphingolipi ds (ceramides, sphingomyelins, and glycolipids) occurring during malig nant transformation of cells is reviewed with special reference to the effects of these changes on biological functions of cell membranes an d the immune status of the organism and the use of sphingolipids in tu mor therapy.
