Elusive Roles of the Different Ceramidases in Human Health, Pathophysiology, and Tissue Regeneration
Ceramide and sphingosine are important interconvertible sphingolipid metabolites which govern various signaling pathways related to different aspects of cell survival and senescence. The conversion of ceramide into sphingosine is mediated by ceramidases.
