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

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

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,
