Blood-brain barrier permeability analysis of plant ceramides. [PDF]
Ceramides, a type of sphingolipid, are cell membrane components and lipid mediators that modulate a variety of cell functions. In plants, ceramides are mostly present in a glucosylated glucosylceramide (GlcCer) form.

Ceramides: focus on obesity [PDF]
It is generally known that obesity increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. A pathological increase in the mass of adipose tissue leads to a violation of the control of lipid accumulation at the molecular level, abnormal lipid metabolism ...

The ART of Lowering Ceramides [PDF]
Ceramides are lipid metabolites implicated in the metabolic dysregulation that accompanies dyslipidaemia and obesity. Using a genetic mouse model to acutely degrade ceramides in adipose tissue or the liver (i.e., by conditionally expressing acid ceramidase), in this issue of Cell MetabolismXia et al. (2015) identify roles for these molecules in insulin
