Opportunistic pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis targets the LC3B-ceramide complex and mediates lethal mitophagy resistance in oral tumors

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Mechanisms by which Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) infection enhances oral tumor growth or resistance to cell death remain elusive. Here, we determined that P.

Intracellular trafficking of ceramide by ceramide transfer protein

open access: yesProceedings of the Japan Academy, Series B, 2010
The transport and sorting of lipids are fundamental to membrane biogenesis. In the synthesis of sphingolipids in mammalian cells, ceramide is newly produced at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and transported from the ER to the trans Golgi regions, where it is converted to sphingomyelin.

A Somatic Mutation in HIF-2α Affects Glucose and Lipid Metabolism via CD36 and Ceramide. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
A mutation within the C‐terminal transactivation domain of HIF‐2α enhances Cd36 expression by increased transactivation activity, leading to ceramide accumulation and disruption of glucose and lipid metabolism. Inhibition of ceramide synthesis by myriocin reduces ceramide levels and ameliorates these metabolic disturbances.

Astrocytic ceramide as possible indicator of neuroinflammation

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2019
Background Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD), and frontotemporal lobar dementia (FTLD) are characterized by progressive neuronal loss but differ in their underlying pathological mechanisms ...

Potential neuroprotective and therapeutic agents and their mechanisms for irradiation‐induced brain injury

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
In this review, agents such baicalein, troxerutin, epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, melatonin, valproic acid, lithium, neurosteroid progesterone, as well as minocycline have been implicated as neuroprotective agents for irradiation‐induced neurological deficits. Also, agents such as glucocorticoids, methylphenidate, vitamin E, bisdemethoxycurcumin,

Glycolipid abnormalities in a myoclonic variant of late infantile amaurotic idiocy

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1970
Glycolipids were isolated from the brain of a patient with a myoclonic variant of late infantile amaurotic idiocy. There was an abnormal glycolipid pattern in gray and white matter.

Molecular crosstalk via exosomes in lung cancer progression

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
“Molecular and theranostics roles of exosomes in Lung Cancer.” Abstract Exosomes play a critical role in lung cancer metastasis, facilitating tumor progression through intercellular communication between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment. These nanosized extracellular vesicles carry bioactive molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and ...

Ceramide Initiates NFκB-Mediated Caspase Activation in Neuronal Apoptosis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2000
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the role of ceramide in mediating apoptosis of dorsal root ganglion neurons induced by either nerve growth factor withdrawal or treatment with the chemotherapeutic agents suramin and cisplatin ...

Considerations and Tips for Promoting Skin Barrier Maintenance and Quality of Life in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus: An Expert Consensus

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skin changes such as xerosis and pruritus are common complications among diabetes patients and may lead to serious adverse events such as diabetic foot syndrome and amputations. Evidence suggests that daily application of optimal skincare, including gentle cleansers and moisturizers, may help improve skin barrier function, preventing ...
