Alternative splicing of ceramide synthase 2 alters levels of specific ceramides and modulates cancer cell proliferation and migration in Luminal B breast cancer subtype

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Global dysregulation of RNA splicing and imbalanced sphingolipid metabolism has emerged as promoters of cancer cell transformation. Here, we present specific signature of alternative splicing (AS) events of sphingolipid genes for each breast cancer ...

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

GLUCOSE STARVATION INDUCED AUTOPHAGY IS A POTENT APOPTOTIC CELL DEATH MECHANISM IN MULTIDRUG RESISTANT HL60/ADR CELLS [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2010
Multidrug resistance in cancer is significantly limits the effectiveness of cancer chemotherapy. The main purpose of the present study is to investigate the role of autophagy induced by glucose starvation in apoptosis induction in multidrug resistant ...

ROLE OF CERAMIDE IN TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR MOVEMENT IN THE PLANE OF THE PLASMA MEMBRANE [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2010
After ligation with transferrin (Tf), transferrin receptor (TfR) is aggregated on cell surface in clathrin coated pits and then internalized into the cell.

Ceramide synthases and ceramide levels are increased in breast cancer tissue [PDF]

open access: yesCarcinogenesis, 2009
Several in vitro studies have correlated dysfunction of the sphingolipid-signaling pathway with promotion of tumor cell growth as well as progression and resistance of tumors to chemotherapeutic agents. As ceramides (Cer) constitute the structural backbones of all sphingolipids, we investigated the endogenous ceramide levels in 43 malignant breast ...

Strawberry seed extract and its major component, tiliroside, promote ceramide synthesis in the stratum corneum of human epidermal equivalents. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The activation of peroxisomeproliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α can stimulate the expression of ceramide-related enzymes, and a major component of strawberry seed extract (SSE) tiliroside enhances the expression of PPARα.

Bcl2L13 is a ceramide synthase inhibitor in glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Therapy resistance is a major limitation to the successful treatment of cancer. Here, we identify Bcl2-like 13 (Bcl2L13), an atypical member of the Bcl-2 family, as a therapy susceptibility gene with elevated expression in solid and blood cancers, including glioblastoma (GBM).

EXPRESSION OF DE NOVO CERAMIDE SYNTHESIS IN LOCAL HEART FAT DEPO IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES

open access: yesБайкальский медицинский журнал, 2023
Introduction. Ceramides are bioactive lipids that are not only structural components of cell membranes, but also second messengers in the transmission of cell signals.

LASS5 is the predominant ceramide synthase isoform involved in de novo sphingolipid synthesis in lung epithelia

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Ceramide is a key bioactive mediator that inhibits surfactant phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) synthesis in lung epithelia. Ceramide availability is governed by sphingomyelin (SM) hydrolysis, but less is known regarding its de novo synthesis.

C-Jun N-terminal kinases/c-Jun and p38 pathways cooperate in ceramide-induced neuronal apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Understanding the regulation of the apoptotic program in neurons by intracellular pathways is currently a subject of great interest. Recent results suggest that c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK), mitogen-activated protein kinases and the transcription ...
