Consistency and clarity of pharmacogenomic guidance in UK medicine patient information leaflets: A cross‐sectional analysis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 6, Page 1934-1939, June 2026.
Pharmacogenomic (PGx) information has the potential to support the safe and effective use of medicines, yet there is uncertainty about how this information can be best communicated to patients. Summaries of product characteristics (SmPCs) and patient information leaflets (PILs) for all UK‐approved medicines with strong evidence supporting a PGx ...

β-Glucocerebrosidase activity in mammalian stratum corneum

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Although previous studies have demonstrated a crucial role for the enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GlcCer'ase) in the final steps of membrane structural maturation in mammalian stratum cornuem (SC) and epidermal homeostasis, the precise in vivo localization

New aminocyclitols as modulators of glucosylceramide metabolism [PDF]

Org. Biomol. Chem., 2005
A series of 13 aminocyclitol derivatives belonging to two different families is described. Their configuration is governed by the regio- and stereocontrolled epoxide opening of a suitably protected conduritol-B epoxide. Studies on several glycosyl processing enzymes indicate that some of them are good inhibitors of glucosylceramide hydrolase.

Genetic ancestry–concordant ceramide metabolism and response to androgen receptor pathway inhibition in metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Cancer, Volume 132, Issue 11, 1 June 2026.
Abstract Background The authors observed differences in response between Black and White patients with metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who were treated prospectively with androgen receptor pathway inhibition (ARPI) in the Abi Race and PANTHER studies.

Ambroxol Hydrochloride Improves Motor Functions and Extends Survival in a Mouse Model of Familial Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a multifactorial and fatal neurodegenerative disease. Growing evidence connects sphingolipid metabolism to the pathophysiology of ALS.

Quantification of glucosylceramide in plasma of Gaucher disease patients

Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2010
Gaucher disease is a sphingolipidosis that leads to an accumulation of glucosylceramide. The objective of this study was to develop a methodology, based on the extraction, purification and quantification of glucosylceramide from blood plasma, for use in ...

Iminosugar-based inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase increase brain glycosphingolipids and survival in a mouse model of Sandhoff disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The neuropathic glycosphingolipidoses are a subgroup of lysosomal storage disorders for which there are no effective therapies. A potential approach is substrate reduction therapy using inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) to decrease the ...

Plant-Unique cis/trans Isomerism of Long-Chain Base Unsaturation is Selectively Required for Aluminum Tolerance Resulting from Glucosylceramide-Dependent Plasma Membrane Fluidity

Plants, 2019
Cis/trans isomerism of the Δ8 unsaturation of long-chain base (LCB) is found only in plant sphingolipids. This unique geometry is generated by sphingolipid LCB Δ8 desaturase SLD which produces both isomers at various ratios, resulting in ...

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Functional Analysis of Human GBA1 Missense Mutations in Drosophila: Insights into Gaucher Disease Pathogenesis and Phenotypic Consequences

Cells
The human GBA1 gene encodes lysosomal acid β-glucocerebrosidase, whose activity is deficient in Gaucher disease (GD). In Drosophila, there are two GBA1 orthologs, Gba1a and Gba1b, and Gba1b is the bona fide GCase encoding gene.
