Sphingolipids in Emotional Well‐Being
Sphingolipids are essential constituents of neuronal membranes and are increasingly recognized as contributors to the key behavioral manifestations associated with emotional well‐being. ABSTRACT Emotional well‐being is a multifactorial concept, which comprises not only life quality of human individuals, but also their mental and physical health.

White Matter Pathology as a Barrier to Gangliosidosis Gene Therapy
The gangliosidoses are a family of neurodegenerative lysosomal storage diseases that have recently seen promising advances in gene therapy. White matter deficits are well established components of gangliosidosis pathology that are now receiving more ...

Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

Brain ceramide hexosides in Tay-Sachs disease and generalized gangliosidosis (GM1-gangliosidosis)
The carbohydrate composition was determined for ceramide hexosides isolated from brains of patients with Tay-Sachs disease and generalized gangliosidosis (hereby named GM1-gangliosidosis).Gray matter of patients with each disease showed a characteristic ...

Gene and RNA Editing: Revolutionary Approaches to Treating Diseases
The image illustrates gene editing technologies: DNA editing using CRISPR–Cas9 and RNA editing via Cas13d, with their clinical applications and ethical risks. DNA editing allows precise gene modifications for conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [ALS] and Huntington's disease, while RNA editing supports multiplexed modifications.
