Ceramide kinase uses ceramide provided by ceramide transport protein: localization to organelles of eicosanoid synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Ceramide kinase (CERK) is a critical mediator of eicosanoid synthesis, and its product, ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P), is required for the production of prostaglandins in response to several inflammatory agonists. In this study, mass spectrometry analysis disclosed that the main forms of C1P in cells were C(16:0) C1P and C(18:0) C1P, suggesting that CERK ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

Modeling SMS driven conversion of ceramide to sphingomyelin reveals the existence of a positive feedback mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In questa tesi presentiamo un modello matematico minimo per la conversione di un ceramide in sfingomielina catalizzata dall'enzima sfingomielina sintasi 1 (SMS1) basato sulle leggi della cinetica chimica.

Lipids of the spleen in Gaucher's disease

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1965
Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used to analyze lipids of eight spleens of patients with Gaucher's disease. Four non-Gaucher spleens were also analyzed.

Engineering Nanoplatforms for Alzheimer's Disease Detection via Biomolecular Corona Proteomic and Lipidomic Profiling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered nanoparticles capture disease‐specific biomolecular coronas that uncover hidden molecular features of Alzheimer's disease. Combined proteomic and lipidomic analyses reveal a characteristic shift in ribosomal machinery and energy metabolism, generating a multiomic fingerprint that supports accurate disease detection and opens new ...

Genetic Determinants of Circulating Sphingolipid Concentrations in European Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Sphingolipids have essential roles as structural components of cell membranes and in cell signalling, and disruption of their metabolism causes several diseases, with diverse neurological, psychiatric, and metabolic consequences.

Ceramide-1-phosphate protection of cochlear hair cells against cisplatin ototoxicity

open access: yesToxicology Reports, 2016
Background: Ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) is a phosphorylated form of ceramide. While ceramide is known to be an inducer of apoptosis of cochlear hair cells in cisplatin ototoxicity, little is known about the function of C1P in cochlear diseases.

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.
