Acute kidney injury induced by protein-overload nephropathy down-regulates gene expression of hepatic cerebroside sulfotransferase in mice, resulting in reduction of liver and serum sulfatides [PDF]
, 2009 Sulfatides, possible antithrombotic factors belonging to sphingoglycolipids, are widely distributed in mammalian tissues and serum. We recently found that the level of serum sulfatides was significantly lower in hemodialysis patients than that in normal ...

Structural characterization of cationic DODAB bilayers containing C24:1 β-glucosylceramide [PDF]
, 2019 The effect of 5 mol%, 9 mol%, and 16 mol% of C24:1 β-glucosylceramide (βGlcCer) on the structure of cationic DODAB bilayers was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), electron spin resonance (ESR ...

CLN3p Impacts Galactosylceramide Transport, Raft Morphology, and Lipid Content [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 2008 Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL) belongs to the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses characterized by blindness/seizures/motor/cognitive decline and early death. JNCL is caused by CLN3 gene mutations that negatively modulate cell growth/apoptosis.

Synthesis of Galactosylceramide and Glucosylceramide by Mouse Kidney Preparations
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1973 A particulate fraction was prepared from kidneys, lyophilized, and coated with ceramide. After incubation with UDP-[14C]Gal and appropriate cofactors, the major radioactive component in the lipid fraction was galactosylceramide (Gal-Cer). If UDP-Glc was substituted for UDP-Gal, the product was glucosylceramide (Glc-Cer).
