Topical Live and Heat‐Killed Probiotics for Photoaging Prevention: A Meta‐Analysis
Background The skin microbiome plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin, and imbalances in this microbial community, often caused by aging and environmental factors like UV radiation, are linked to photoaging. Topical probiotics may help prevent it.

Structural basis for the activation of acid ceramidase
Acid ceramidase (aCDase) hydrolyzes lysosomal membrane ceramide into sphingosine and its dysfunction leads to a variety of disease phenotypes. Here, the authors present structures of aCDase in its proenzyme and autocleaved forms, which provides insight ...

Intestinal Acid Sphingomyelinase Protects From Severe Pathogen-Driven Colitis [PDF]
Inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract are emerging as a global problem with increased evidence and prevalence in numerous countries. A dysregulated sphingolipid metabolism occurs in patients with ulcerative colitis and is discussed to ...

Phylogenetic Analysis of Neutral Ceramidase
ceramidase (NCDase) plays an important role in cell regulation, and has been observed in most of the organism across different groups. In this study the molecular evolution of NCDase in different organisms was studied. The phylogenetic tree relationships among the organisms were explored by comparing the sequences of their NCDase.

Feeding Stimulates Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Mobilization in Mouse Hypothalamus. [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that the sphingolipid-derived mediator sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) reduces food intake by activating G protein-coupled S1P receptor-1 (S1PR1) in the hypothalamus.

Role of neutral ceramidase in colon cancer
ABSTRACT Alterations in sphingolipid metabolism, especially ceramide and sphingosine 1‐phosphate, have been linked to colon cancer, suggesting that enzymes of sphingolipid metabolism may emerge as novel regulators and targets in colon cancer.

Regulation of apoptosis-associated lysosomal membrane permeabilization [PDF]
Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) occurs in response to a large variety of cell death stimuli causing release of cathepsins from the lysosomal lumen into the cytosol where they participate in apoptosis signaling.

CDase is a pan-ceramidase inDrosophila
Ceramidases catalyze the conversion of ceramide to sphingosine. They are acylaminohydrolases that catalyze the deacylation of the amide-linked saturated fatty acid from ceramide to generate sphingosine. They also catalyze the reverse reaction of ceramide biosynthesis using sphingosine and fatty acid.

Acid ceramidase confers radioresistance to glioblastoma cells
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary, intracranial malignancy of the central nervous system. The standard treatment protocol, which involves surgical resection, and concurrent radiation with adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ), still imparts a grim prognosis.
