Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Simultaneous fractionation of four placental neutral glycosphingolipids with a continuous gradient.
We describe a method for isolating milligram quantities of the four neutral glycosphingolipids, glucocerebroside, lactosylceramide, traiosylceramide, and globoside, from human placental tissue.

Differential binding patterns of anti-sulfatide antibodies to glial membranes [PDF]
Sulfatide is a major glycosphingolipid in myelin and a target for autoantibodies in autoimmune neuropathies. However neuropathy disease models have not been widely established, in part because currently available monoclonal antibodies to sulfatide may ...

Reduced triacylglycerols and lipid droplets are associated with resilience to Alzheimer's disease
Abstract INTRODUCTION Although it has become clear that alterations in lipid metabolism are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), it is unclear how they contribute to both cognitive decline and the pathophysiology of AD. METHODS Lipidomics and activity‐based protein profiling (ABPP) were performed in the frontal cortex of control, AD and resilient ...

Lipid composition of plasma membranes from human leukemic lymphocytes
The specific activity of adenosine 5‘-monophosphatase and the concentrations of cholesterol, glucosylceramide, lactosylceramide, and phospholipids were compared in the whole homogenates and in plasma membrane fractions in four preparations of human ...

Immune Response Modulation by Tumor-Secreted Glycosphingolipids [PDF]
Although originally considered merely structural components of cellular membranes, glycosphingolipids (GSL) arenow recognized as having critical effects on cellular physiology, including proliferation, differentiation, viraltransformation and ontogenesis.

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.
