Exosomes from Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promote Epidermal Barrier Repair by Inducing de Novo Synthesis of Ceramides in Atopic Dermatitis. [PDF]

, 2020
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial, heterogeneous disease associated with epidermal barrier disruption and intense systemic inflammation. Previously, we showed that exosomes derived from human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC ...

Comparative profiling and comprehensive quantification of stratum corneum ceramides in humans and mice by LC/MS/MS[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2020
Ceramides are the predominant lipids in the stratum corneum (SC) and are crucial components for normal skin barrier function. Although the composition of various ceramide classes in the human SC has been reported, that in mice is still unknown, despite ...

Plasma ceramides are associated with MRI-based liver fat content but not with noninvasive scores of liver fibrosis in patients with type 2 diabetes

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2023
Background There is growing evidence that ceramides play a significant role in the onset and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a highly prevalent condition in patients with type 2 diabetes associated with hepatic and ...

Neutral Ceramidase Is Required for the Reproduction of Brown Planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Ceramides are bioactive sphingolipids that have been implicated in insect development; however, their role in insect reproduction remains poorly understood.

The Role of Ceramides in Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease Regulation of Ceramides by Adipokines

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Metabolic dysfunction is intertwined with the pathophysiology of both diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Recently, one particular lipid class has been shown to influence the development and sustainment of these diseases: ceramides.

Blood-brain barrier permeability analysis of plant ceramides.

PLoS ONE, 2020
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.

Targeting Ceramides and Adiponectin Receptors in the Islet of Langerhans for Treating Diabetes

Molecules, 2022
Ceramides belong to the sphingolipid family and represent the central hub of the sphingolipid network. In obesity, oversupply of saturated fatty acids including palmitate raises ceramide levels which can be detrimental to cells.

Ceramide remodeling and risk of cardiovascular events and mortality [PDF]

, 2018
BackgroundRecent studies suggest that circulating concentrations of specific ceramide species may be associated with coronary risk and mortality. We sought to determine the relations between the most abundant plasma ceramide species of differing acyl ...

Identification and quantitation of free ceramides in human platelets

Journal of Lipid Research, 1972
Free ceramides were isolated from human platelets. Their structures were unequivocally determined by gas–liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry of the trimethylsilyl ether derivatives.

Ceramides and phospholipids in plasma extracellular vesicles are associated with high risk of major cardiovascular events after carotid endarterectomy

Scientific Reports, 2022
Ceramides and phosphatidylcholines (PCs) are bioactive lipids and lipid bilayer membrane components. Distinct ceramides/PCs (ratios) predict cardiovascular outcome in patients with coronary artery disease.
