Very Long-Chain C24:1 Ceramide Is Increased in Serum Extracellular Vesicles with Aging and Can Induce Senescence in Bone-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

open access: yesCells, 2019
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, function in cell-to-cell communication through delivery of proteins, lipids and microRNAs to target cells via endocytosis and membrane fusion.

Identification of Heat Shock Protein 60 as a Regulator of Neutral Sphingomyelinase 2 and Its Role in Dopamine Uptake. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Activation of sphingomyelinase (SMase) by extracellular stimuli is the major pathway for cellular production of ceramide, a bioactive lipid mediator acting through sphingomyelin (SM) hydrolysis.

Hyaluronan synthase-2 upregulation protects smpd3-deficient fibroblasts against cell death induced by nutrient deprivation, but not against apoptosis evoked by oxidized LDL

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2015
The neutral type 2 sphingomyelinase (nSMase2) hydrolyzes sphingomyelin and generates ceramide, a major bioactive sphingolipid mediator, involved in growth arrest and apoptosis.

Reduction of sphingomyelinase activity associated with progranulin deficiency and frontotemporal dementia

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
Loss-of-function mutations affecting the lysosomal protein progranulin are a leading cause of frontotemporal dementia. Progranulin mutations cause abnormalities in lysosomal lipid processing, particularly of sphingolipids, major components of neural cell

The acid sphingomyelinase/ceramide system in COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) cleaves sphingomyelin into the highly lipophilic ceramide, which forms large gel-like rafts/platforms in the plasma membrane. We showed that SARS-CoV-2 uses these platforms for cell entry.

Anterograde and retrograde transport of neutral sphingomyelinase-2 between the Golgi and the plasma membrane [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2010
The activation of neutral sphingomyelinase-2 (nSMase2) and consequent ceramide production are implicated in many stress-induced signaling pathways. Trafficking of nSMase2 from the Golgi compartment to the plasma membrane (PM) in response to signaling stimuli has been described. However, the precise mechanisms of transport remain unknown.

The neutral sphingomyelinase pathway regulates packaging of the prion protein into exosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Exosomes are a novel mechanism of intercellular transmission of infectious prions. Results: Chemical and RNAi inhibition of the neutral sphingomyelinase (nSMase) pathway impairs exosome formation and prion packaging.

Partial purification and properties of acid sphingomyelinase from rat liver.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
Acid sphingomyelinase was purified approximately 5,200-fold from the mitochondria-lysosome-enriched particles of rat liver by sequential chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, octyl-Sepharose, Sephacryl S-300, Concanavalin A-Sepharose, and CM-cellulose.

Neuron‐Derived Vesicular circMagi1 Restrains Vascular Repair After Ischemic Stroke by Promoting TRIM65‐Mediated ANXA2 Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
After ischemic stroke, injured neurons transfer circMagi1 to endothelial cells through extracellular vesicles. Within endothelial cells, circMagi1 binds ANXA2 and enhances its engagement with TRIM65, promoting ANXA2 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation to constrain angiogenic repair.
