Developmental Comparison of Ceramide in Wild-Type and Cln3Δex7/8 Mouse Brains and Sera

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
CLN3 disease is a neurodevelopmental disease leading to early visual failure, motor decline, and death. CLN3 pathogenesis has been linked to dysregulation of ceramide, a key intracellular messenger impacting various biological functions.

Ceramide mediates radiation-induced germ cell apoptosis via regulating mitochondria function and MAPK factors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Studies about radiation damage in vivo are very significant for healthy risk assessment as well as cancer radiotherapy. Ceramide as a second messenger has been found to be related to radiation-induced apoptosis. However, the detailed mechanisms in living

Functional consequences of sphingomyelinase-induced changes in erythrocyte membrane structure

, 2012
Contains fulltext : 107961.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)Inflammation enhances the secretion of sphingomyelinases (SMases). SMases catalyze the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin into phosphocholine and ceramide.

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

Journal 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

FEBS 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.

Separation of neutral glycosphingolipids and sulfatides by thin-layer chromatography

Journal of Lipid Research, 1967
Two one-dimensional systems for separation of glycolipids from total lipid extracts of tissues by thin-layer chromatography are described. System I used, as adsorbent, an alkaline mixture of silica gel without CaSO4 binder (75%) and magnesium silicate ...

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

, 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.

Sphingolipid and ceramide homeostasis : potential therapeutic targets

, 2012
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells where they have been attributed a plethora of functions from the formation of structural domains to polarized cellular trafficking and signal transduction.

Endogenous Engineering Reprograms Extracellular Vesicles for Enhanced Therapeutic Function

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review explains how Extracellular vesicles‐producing cells can be endogenously engineered to load therapeutic proteins and nucleic acids. We summarize physiological and genetic strategies that harness native sorting pathways for selective cargo loading.

Characterization of neutral sphingolipids from chicken erythrocytes.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1985
The neutral sphingolipids from chicken erythrocytes were characterized. The total concentration of neutral sphingolipids was found to be 480 nmol/g of dry stroma.
