Beef meat promotion of dimethylhydrazine-induced colorectal carcinogenesis biomarkers is suppressed by dietary calcium [PDF]

, 2007
Red meat consumption is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. We have previously shown that haemin, Hb and red meat promote carcinogen-induced preneoplastic lesions: aberrant crypt foci (ACF) and mucin-depleted foci (MDF) in rats.

Activation of Ceramidase and Ceramide Kinase by Vanadate via a Tyrosine Kinase–Mediated Pathway

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
.: Ceramide, a key molecule in the metabolism of sphingolipids, is converted by ceramidase to sphingosine, and phosphorylated by ceramide kinase to form ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P). In this study, we improved on a method of thin-layer chromatography using

Elevated Circulating Ceramides 18:0 and 24:1 as a Risk Factor for Sarcopenia: In Vitro, Animal, and Clinical Evidence

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ceramides have garnered considerable attention as pro‐aging bioactive lipids implicated in both metabolic dysfunction and musculoskeletal decline. Among these, C18:0 and C24:1 ceramides may play a role in the pathophysiology of sarcopenia, a key manifestation of age‐related deterioration.
