Holistic Evaluation of Shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes): Unraveling Its Medicinal and Therapeutic Potentials

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
Key Lentinula edodes (Shiitake) metabolites and their therapeutic roles. Lentinic acid, shiitakeols A/B, and lanostanoids show anti‐inflammatory activity; lentinan and latcripin derivatives possess anticancer effects; sterols, β‐glucans, and eritadenine are hepatoprotective.

Abnormalities of glycosphingolipid, sulfatide, and ceramide in the polycystic (cpk/cpk) mouse.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
Polycystic kidney disease is a disorder marked by aberrant renal tubular epithelial cell proliferation and transport abnormalities. Sphingolipids are ubiquitous membrane components implicated in several cellular functions including cell membrane sorting,

alpha -Lactalbumin (LA) Stimulates Milk beta-1,4-Galactosyltransferase I (beta 4Gal-T1) to Transfer Glucose from UDP-glucose to N-Acetylglucosamine: CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF beta 4Gal-T1·LA COMPLEX WITH UDP-Glc* [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
beta-1,4-Galactosyltransferase 1 (Gal-T1) transfers galactose (Gal) from UDP-Gal to N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), which constitutes its normal galactosyltransferase (Gal-T) activity.

Proteomic analysis of lactosylceramide-enriched membrane microdomains

open access: yesTrends in Glycoscience and Glycotechnology, 2008
生体膜マイクロドメイン(リピドラフト)はコレステロールとスフィンゴ糖脂質に富む膜上の微小領域で,細胞の内外をつなぐさまざまな細胞反応に関与している。我々はラクトシルセラミドの集積する細胞膜マイクロドメインに焦点を当て,好中球の機能を研究している。好中球の生体膜マイクロドメインは貪食などの機能に関与することが知られているが,その分子メカニズムはまだ十分には明らかにされていない。この総説では生体膜マイクロドメインが機能する際の分子メカニズムを明らかにするために,その構成タンパク質を網羅的に調べる戦略について概説する。

Lactosylceramide-enriched glycosphingolipid signaling domain mediates superoxide generation from human neutrophils [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2002
This study is focused on the functional significance of neutrophil lactosylceramide (LacCer)–enriched microdomains, which are involved in the initiation of a signal transduction pathway leading to superoxide generation. Treatment of neutrophils with anti-LacCer antibody, T5A7 or Huly-m13, induced superoxide generation from the cells, which was blocked ...

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 12, Page 2338-2352, December 2025.
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

Nonspecific lipid transfer protein in the assay of a membrane-bound enzyme CMP-N-acetyl-neuraminate:lactosylceramide sialyltransferase.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
CMP-N-acetylneuraminate:lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase is tightly associated with the luminal side of the Golgi membrane as is its lipid substrate, lactosylceramide.

Metabolomics study of fibroblasts damaged by UVB and BaP

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We have recently shown that both UVB and BaP can induce the production of ROS, apoptosis and even cancer. However, the differences in the metabolic profiles of skin damaged by UVB, BaP or UVB combined with BaP have not been studied.

P-selectin mediates metastatic progression through binding to sulfatides on tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hematogenous carcinoma metastasis is associated with tumor cell emboli formation, which is now known to be facilitated by selectins. P-selectin-mediated interactions of platelets with cancer cells are based mostly on mucin- and glycosaminoglycan-type ...
