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 ...

Glucosylceramide and the level of the glucosidase‐stimulating proteins [PDF]
AbstractThe concentration of β‐glucosidase‐stimulating proteins (called cohydrolase here) was measured in mouse liver and brain by immunoassay. Factors that might influence the levels of cohydrolase were examined. Injecting mice with an inactivator of glucosidase (conduritol B epoxide) rapidly produced elevations in liver glucosylceramide (the enzyme's

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for analysis of galactosylceramides as their benzoyl derivatives has been devised. Samples containing 10-150 nmoles of monohexosylceramides are benzoylated by heating for 60 min at 60 ° C in 0.5 ml ...

Defining the glucosylceramide population of C. elegans
Glucosylceramides (GlcCer) are lipids that impact signaling pathways, serve as critical components of cellular membranes, and act as precursors for hundreds of other complex glycolipid species. Abnormal GlcCer metabolism is linked to many diseases, including cancers, diabetes, Gaucher disease, neurological disorders, and skin disorders. A key hurdle to

Functional Specialization of Clathrin‐Independent Endocytic Routes: Mechanisms and Cellular Roles
Distinct clathrin‐independent endocytic (CIE) routes support specialized cellular functions across different contexts. Created with Biorender.com. ABSTRACT Clathrin‐independent endocytosis (CIE) comprises a diverse repertoire of internalization mechanisms that operate in parallel with clathrin‐mediated endocytosis.

A Systematic Review on Disease‐Modifying Therapies in Parkinsonian Disorders
Parkinsonian disorders, including Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, multiple system atrophy, and progressive supranuclear palsy, are progressive neurodegenerative conditions with no treatment options to slow disease progression. This systematic review provides an overview of evidence of disease‐modifying therapies that have been evaluated in ...

Glycosphingolipids from cultured astroblasts
The glycolipids of two clonal lines astroblasts, NN clone and C6 clone, were studied. Glucosylceramide and lactosylceramide were present at very low levels in both clones, but the most common myelin glycolipids galactosylceramide and sulfatide, were not ...

This review reconsiders the amyloid cascade by placing lipid dynamics at its core. It shows that free lipids, governed by critical micellar concentration, act as pathological chaperones that redirect amyloid aggregation toward membrane‐damaging species.

Regulation of animal development in response to nutritional cues is an intensely studied problem related to disease and aging. While extensive studies indicated roles of the Target of Rapamycin (TOR) in sensing certain nutrients for controlling growth ...
