Chronic glucocorticoid-rich milieu and liver dysfunction [PDF]
We investigated the impact of chronic hypercorticosteronemia (due to neonatal monosodium L-glutamate, MSG, and treatment) on liver oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, and carbohydrate/lipid metabolism in adult male rats.

Abstract Ceramide deficiency in the stratum corneum (SC) is a key etiological factor in atopic dermatitis (AD). To clarify the direct role of SC ceramide depletion in impairing SC barrier and water‐holding functions and in initiating AD‐like skin symptoms and disease‐specific molecular alterations, we generated Tg mice overexpressing a mutant form of ...

Colorectal cancer linkage on chromosomes 4q21, 8q13, 12q24, and 15q22 [PDF]
A substantial proportion of familial colorectal cancer (CRC) is not a consequence of known susceptibility loci, such as mismatch repair (MMR) genes, supporting the existence of additional loci.

Metabolites involved in cellular communication among human cumulus-oocyte-complex and sperm during in vitro fertilization [PDF]
Background: Fertilization is a key physiological process for the preservation of the species. Consequently, different mechanisms affecting the sperm and the oocyte have been developed to ensure a successful fertilization. Thus, sperm acrosome reaction is

GLP‐1 agonists and the gut microbiome: A bidirectional relationship
Abstract Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists have transformed the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity, yet their interactions with the gut microbiome remain an emerging frontier in pharmacological and metabolic research.

On the role of bioactive sphingolipids and their metabolizing enzymes in cancer [PDF]
Ceramide is a family of closely related molecules, which are presumed to be in the center of sphingolipid metabolism. Among sphingolipid metabolites, several ceramide subspecies and sphingosine induce apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and death, whereas ...

This study reports the first crystal structure of human TANGO2, mutations of which are responsible for TANGO2 deficiency disorder. The crystallographic analysis demonstrates that interactions between heme and TANGO2 are nonspecific, helping to address ongoing questions about the role of TANGO2 as a heme‐trafficking protein.Recently, there has been ...

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors: do they have a therapeutic potential in cardiac fibrosis? [PDF]
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that is characterized by a peculiar mechanism of action. In fact, S1P, which is produced inside the cell, can act as an intracellular mediator, whereas after its export outside the cell, it can act as ...

ORMDL proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) negatively regulate serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) activity in response to the rate of de novo sphingolipid synthesis. Disruption of ceramide homeostasis by myriocin or fumonisin B1 (FB1) appears to destabilize the ORMDL‐SPT complex, leading to ORMDL degradation as a feedback mechanism.
