The influence of the preparations with the glucocorticosteroids and ceramides on the morphological state of the rats’ skin with the nonspecific dermatitis

open access: yesPatologìâ, 2013
Introduction. Local therapy is an important method for treatment of dermatitis used to suppress the skin inflammation and the main related symptoms: hyperemia, edema, pruritus, lichenification etc.

Metabolic Conversion of Ceramides in HeLa Cells - A Cholesteryl Phosphocholine Delivery Approach. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Ceramides can be delivered to cultured cells without solvents in the form of complexes with cholesteryl phosphocholine. We have analysed the delivery of three different radiolabeled D-erythro-ceramides (C6-Cer, C10-Cer and C16-Cer) to HeLa cells, and ...

Mammalian ceramide synthases [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2010
AbstractIn mammals, ceramide, a key intermediate in sphingolipid metabolism and an important signaling molecule, is synthesized by a family of six ceramide synthases (CerS), each of which synthesizes ceramides with distinct acyl chain lengths. There are a number of common biochemical features between the CerS, such as their catalytic mechanism, and ...

Ceramide Kinase and Ceramide‐1‐Phosphate

open access: yes, 2007
It has been over a decade since the sphingolipid ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) was described. Until recently, only sparse reports on possible biological functions for this lipid have been published. A large number of reports have now surfaced demonstrating distinct biological mechanisms regulated by C1P produced from ceramide kinase (CERK).

Mild alkali-stable phospholipids in chicken egg yolks: characterization of 1-alkenyl and 1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, sphingomyelin, and 1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1980
Chicken egg yolk phospholipids were subjected to mild alkaline hydrolysis. The resulting alkali-stable phospholipids were characterized by chemical chromatographic, and enzymatic methods.

Effect of metformin administration and weight loss on plasma ceramide C16:0, C18:0, C24:1 concentrations in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes

open access: yesGastroenterologìa, 2020
Background. Ceramides are the fats of the sphingolipid family that are involved in the development of insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and type 2 diabetes.

A method for the quantitative determination of neutral glycosphingolipids in urine sediment

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1970
A method is described for the isolation and quantitation of six neutral glycosyl ceramides from human urinary sediment. Total lipids were extracted from sediments of 24-hr urine collections, and the glycosyl ceramides were isolated by silicic acid column

Detergent-Resistant, Ceramide-Enriched Domains in Sphingomyelin/Ceramide Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2006
When cell membranes are treated with Triton X-100 or other detergents at 4 degrees C, a nonsolubilized fraction can often be recovered, the "detergent-resistant membranes", that is not found when detergent treatment takes place at 37 degrees C. Detergent-resistant membranes may be related in some cases to membrane "rafts".

Plasma Ceramides as Prognostic Biomarkers and Their Arterial and Myocardial Tissue Correlates in Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018
Summary: We identified a plasma signature of 11 C14 to C26 ceramides and 1 C16 dihydroceramide predictive of major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery,

Ceramides and ceramide synthases in cancer: Focus on apoptosis and autophagy

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2023
Different studies corroborate a role for ceramide synthases and their downstream products, ceramides, in modulation of apoptosis and autophagy in the context of cancer.
