Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are shed from the plasma membrane, but the regulation and function of these EVs remain unclear. We found that oxidative stress induced by H2O2 in Hela cells stimulated filopodia formation and the secretion of EVs.

ATRA transcriptionally induces nSMase2 through CBP/p300-mediated histone acetylation[S]
Neutral sphingomyelinase-2 (nSMase2) is a key ceramide-producing enzyme in cellular stress responses. While many posttranslational regulators of nSMase2 are known, emerging evidence suggests a more protracted regulation of nSMase2 at the transcriptional ...

We show here that human embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem cell–derived neuroprogenitors (NPs) develop primary cilia. Ciliogenesis depends on the sphingolipid ceramide and its interaction with atypical PKC (aPKC), both of which distribute to the primary cilium and the apicolateral cell membrane in NP rosettes.

Characterization of Neutral Sphingomyelinase Isoforms in Skeletal Muscle Mitochondria [PDF]
Skeletal muscle is composed of fiber types that differ in mitochondrial content, antioxidant capacity, and susceptibility to apoptosis. Ceramides have been linked to apoptosis by increasing mitochondrial permeability, a common hallmark of apoptotic ...

Adipocytes signal to recruit specific mRNAs from surrounding cells to restore expression deficits
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano-sized, membrane-delimited, particles released by cells that carry signaling macromolecules. A major pathway of EV production is potentiated by neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (SMPD3/nSMAse2), an enzyme that generates ...

Activation of N-SMase (neutral sphingomyelinase) is an established part of the response of cytokines such as TNF (tumour necrosis factor)-α. However, it remains unclear which of the currently cloned N-SMase isoforms (nSMase1, nSMase2 and nSMase3) are ...
