Oxidized Phospholipids Induce Ceramide Accumulation in RAW 264.7 Macrophages: Role of Ceramide Synthases

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs), including 1-palmitoyl-2-glutaroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PGPC) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oxovaleroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POVPC) are among several biologically active derivatives that are generated during oxidation of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs).

Lip1p: a novel subunit of acyl‐CoA ceramide synthase [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2005
Ceramide plays a crucial role as a basic building block of sphingolipids, but also as a signalling molecule mediating the fate of the cell. Although Lac1p and Lag1p have been shown recently to be involved in acyl-CoA-dependent ceramide synthesis, ceramide synthase is still poorly characterized.

Neutral sphingomyelinase activation in endothelial and glial cell death induced by amyloid beta-peptide

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2004
We have explored the molecular mechanism underlying amyloid beta-peptide (Aβ)-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro. Exposure of murine cerebral endothelial cells (CECs) or C6 glioma cells to Aβ25-35 resulted in dose-dependent cell death.

Review article

open access: yes, 2019
In eukaryotic cells, the trans-Golgi network (TGN) serves as a platform for secretory cargo sorting and trafficking. In recent years, it has become evident that a complex network of lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions contributes to these key ...

Comprehensive DIA‐MS Proteomics of Root Basal Nodes Elucidates Mechanisms of Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinity severely affects rice growth, yield, and quality, posing a global food security challenge. Rice is particularly vulnerable to high salinity, which restricts growth and tolerance to other stresses. To address this, breeding efforts have been made in the past, leading to the generation of multi‐stress‐tolerant rice lines.

Altered ceramide acyl chain length and ceramide synthase gene expression in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2013
ABSTRACTGenetic studies have provided increasing evidence that ceramide homeostasis plays a role in neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson's disease (PD). It is known that the relative amounts of different ceramide molecular species, as defined by their fatty acyl chain length, regulate ceramide function in lipid membranes and in signaling ...

Single‐nucleotide polymorphisms in coronary artery disease: Biological complexity, risk architecture, and implications for precision prevention

open access: yesPrecision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
This graphical summary highlights the clinical application of single‐nucleotide polymorphisms‐based risk stratification in coronary artery disease. By integrating polygenic risk with clinical assessment, imaging, and preventive strategies, genetic information enables earlier risk identification, optimized screening, and personalized lifestyle and ...

Inhibition of de novo ceramide biosynthesis by FTY720 protects rat retina from light-induced degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
Light-induced retinal degeneration (LIRD) in albino rats causes apoptotic photoreceptor cell death. Ceramide is a second messenger for apoptosis. We tested whether increases in ceramide mediate photoreceptor apoptosis in LIRD and if inhibition of ...
