Rare‐Variant Burden across Lysosomal Genes Implicates Sialylation and Ganglioside Metabolism in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lysosomal dysfunction is central to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis, with GBA1 representing the strongest established genetic risk factor. Numerous other genes involved in lysosomal sphingolipid, glycosphingolipid, and ceramide metabolism have been proposed as contributors to PD, highlighting the need for genetic analyses ...

Intercellular transfer of shed tumor cell gangliosides [PDF]

, 1996
Three distinct steps underlie immunosuppression by tumor gangliosides: (i) their shedding by the tumor cell, (ii) binding to target leukocytes in the tumor microenvironment, and (iii) action upon the target cell.

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

Tumor gangliosides accelerate murine tumor angiogenesis

Angiogenesis, 2013
Tumor cells shed gangliosides and populate their microenvironment with these biologically active membrane glycosphingolipids. In vitro, ganglioside enrichment amplifies receptor tyrosine kinase signaling and activation of vascular endothelial cells ...

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Functional roles of gangliosides in neurodevelopment--An overview of recent advances

Neurochemical Research, 2012
Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids that are most abundant in the nervous system. They are localized primarily in the outer leaflets of plasma membranes and participated in cell–cell recognition, adhesion, and signal transduction ...

Prevalence and Disability of Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients With Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is considered a frequent complication of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM). Establishing a causal relationship between PN and WM is complicated by confounding factors such as age‐related axonal loss and diabetes. This scoping review aims to summarize the current evidence on WM‐associated PN with a focus

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Murine Peritoneal Macrophage Gangliosides Inhibit Lymphocyte Proliferation

, 1991
Gangliosides have been shown to act as immunoregulatory agents by altering proliferative responses of lymphocytes to both antigens and mitogens. Most early studies have utilized brain gangliosides and have required high concentrations.
