Cryo-EM analysis reveals human SID-1 transmembrane family member 1 dynamics underlying lipid hydrolytic activity

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Two mammalian homologs of systemic RNA interference defective protein 1 (SID-1) (SIDT1/2) are suggested to function as double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) transporters for extracellular dsRNA uptake or for release of incorporated dsRNA from lysosome to cytoplasm.

The physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and signaling in the central nervous system

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

Topical Live and Heat‐Killed Probiotics for Photoaging Prevention: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesDermatology Research and Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
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.

Restoring the Sphingolipid Balance in Glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor with a median survival of 15 months even with standard of care—surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Neutral Ceramidase

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Applications, 2014
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.

Role of neutral ceramidase in colon cancer

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2016
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.

CDase is a pan-ceramidase inDrosophila

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2011
 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

open access: yesOncology Reports, 2017
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.
