Cerebrosides and a monoacylmonogalactosylglycerol from Clinacanthus nutans," Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, vol.
Some components in SC such as
cerebrosides (Kawai and Ikeda, 1985), SPG (Kumari et al., 2008) and lectins (Chumkhunthod et al., 2006) have potential vasodilatory effects which attract more and more attention.
The two
cerebrosides most highly enriched on the surface of the oligodendrocyte cell body and throughout the myelin membrane, compared to other parts of the body, are the galactosylceramides, GalC and sulphatide, which together make up 25-30% of human CNS lipids.

Lipids Listed as ceramides,
cerebrosides or sphingo lipids.
Amongst the lipids, it is usually the phospholids that can be considered as micronutrients but one should also consider free fatty acids,
cerebrosides and cholesterol, and there are some minor fatty acids in the triglycerides that are considered to be important.
Nonetheless, polar steroids are proved to be an important natural product isolated from brittle stars which are responsible for their cytotoxicity, terpenes, naphthoquinones, phenylpropanoids, carotenoids and
cerebrosides have been isolated from brittle stars and might have pharmacological activities (13).
