Ceramides of pig epidermis: structure determination

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
Seven distinguishable groups of ceramides have been isolated from pig epidermis and identified. In order of increasing polarity there are: 1, N-(omega-acyloxy)acylsphingosines (7.7%); 2, N-acylsphingosines (42.4%); 3, N-acylphytosphingosines (10.2%); 4 ...

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

CETP inhibitory activity of ceramides, isolated from the gorgonian Acabaria undulata

, 1997
Four ceramides, isolated from the gorgonian Acabaria Undulata, and sphingosine analogs exhibited significant cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)-inhibitory activity.

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Extracellular vesicles derived from edible plants and edible fungi: Compositional characteristics, engineering strategies and biofunctions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Non‐animal extracellular vesicles as bioactive‐compound carriers: compositional characteristics, engineering strategies, and biofunctions. Abstract Animal‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were widely used for bioactive compound delivery but constrained by complex origins, potential immunogenicity, and pathogen contamination.

Ceramide in Stress Response [PDF]

, 2010
Evidence has consistently indicated that activation of sphingomyelinases and/or ceramide synthases and the resulting accumulation of ceramide mediate cellular responses to stressors such as lipopolysaccharide, interleukin 1beta, tumor necrosis factor alpha, serum deprivation, irradiation and various antitumor treatments.

Correlation between serum ceramide levels and traditional and non-traditional lipid profile parameters in patients with acute coronary syndrome: A cross-sectional study

Babcock University Medical Journal
Objective: This study evaluated circulating ceramides and their association with traditional lipids and the triglyceride-to-HDL-cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients versus healthy controls.

Ceramides and diabetes mellitus : an update on the potential molecular relationships [PDF]

, 2019
Recent evidence suggests that ceramides can play an important pathophysiological role in the development of diabetes. Ceramides are primarily recognized as lipid bilayer building blocks, but recent work has shown that these endogenous molecules are ...

Role of dietary and nutritional interventions in ceramide-associated diseases

Journal of Lipid Research
Ceramides are important intermediates in sphingolipid metabolism and serve as signaling molecules with independent biological significance. Elevated cellular and circulating ceramide levels are consistently associated with pathological conditions ...
