Regulation of hematogenous tumor metastasis by acid sphingomyelinase
EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2015 Metastatic dissemination of cancer cells is the ultimate hallmark of malignancy and accounts for approximately 90% of human cancer deaths. We investigated the role of acid sphingomyelinase (Asm) in the hematogenous metastasis of melanoma cells ...

The impact of sphingomyelin on the pathophysiology and treatment response to olipudase alfa in acid sphingomyelinase deficiency [PDF]
Genetics in Medicine OpenAcid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is a rare progressive genetic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the SMPD1 gene causing low or absent activity of the enzyme acid sphingomyelinase, resulting in subsequent accumulation of its substrate ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Plasma Membrane Repair Is Regulated Extracellularly by Proteases Released from Lysosomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Eukaryotic cells rapidly repair wounds on their plasma membrane. Resealing is Ca(2+)-dependent, and involves exocytosis of lysosomes followed by massive endocytosis.
