Neutral Sphingomyelinase 2 [PDF]
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is caused by exposure to cigarette smoke (CS). One mechanism of CS-induced lung injury is aberrant generation of ceramide, which leads to elevated apoptosis of epithelial and endothelial cells in the alveolar spaces.

Identification and evaluation of neutral sphingomyelinase 2 inhibitors
Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2011Sphingomyelinase catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to generate ceramide, an important molecule involved in the regulation of various cellular responses. In this study, we partially purified the neutral sphingomyelinase2 (nSMase2) and identified the inhibitors, D-lyxophytosphingosine and D-arabino-phytosphingosine, which have an inhibitory ...

The neutral sphingomyelinase 2 in T cell receptor signaling and polarity
Biological Chemistry, 2018Abstract By hydrolyzing its substrate sphingomyelin at the cytosolic leaflet of cellular membranes, the neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (NSM2) generates microdomains which serve as docking sites for signaling proteins and thereby, functions to regulate signal relay.

Dopamine transporter trafficking is regulated by neutral sphingomyelinase 2/ceramide kinase
Cellular Signalling, 2018Dopamine (DA) reuptake is the primary mechanism to terminate dopaminergic transmission in the synaptic cleft. The dopamine transporter (DAT) has an important role in the regulation of DA reuptake. This study provides anatomical and physiological evidence that DAT recycling is regulated by ceramide kinase via the sphingomyelin pathway.

The neutral sphingomyelinase-2 is involved in angiogenic signaling triggered by oxidized LDL
Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2016Capillaries of the external part of the normal arterial wall constitute the vasa vasorum network. In atherosclerotic lesions, neovascularization occurs in areas of intimal hyperplasia where it may promote plaque expansion, and intraplaque hemorrhage. Oxidized LDL that are present in atherosclerotic areas activate various angiogenic signaling pathways ...

Crystal structure and activation mechanism of human neutral sphingomyelinase 2
The FASEB Journal, 2017Neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) is a magnesium‐dependent phophodiesterase that generates the bioactive sphingolipid ceramide. Ceramide is a critically important secondary messenger that acts in a variety of cellular pathways such as apoptosis, inflammation, cell growth and differentiation.

Neutral sphingomyelinase 2 induces dopamine uptake through regulation of intracellular calcium
Cellular Signalling, 2010Ceramide serves as a second messenger produced from sphingomyelin by the activation of sphingomyelinase (SMase). Here, we suggest that neutral SMase 2 (nSMase2) may regulate dopamine (DA) uptake. nSMase2 siRNA-transfected PC12 cells showed lower levels of nSMase activity and ceramide than scramble siRNA-transfected and control cells.

ABSTRACT Bacterial pore‐forming toxins compromise plasmalemmal integrity, leading to Ca 2+ influx, leakage of the cytoplasm, and cell death. Such lesions can be repaired by microvesicular shedding or by the endocytic uptake of the injured membrane sites.

A CRITICAL ROLE FOR NEUTRAL SPHINGOMYELINASE-2 IN DOXORUBICIN-INDUCED CARDIOTOXICITY
ABSTRACT Cardiotoxicity is a major side effect of Doxorubicin (Dox) that has hampered its clinical utility, and strategies to mitigate this cardiotoxicity are limited. Sphingolipids (SL) are central to the chemotherapy response in cancer but their role in normal tissue is less clear.Samia Mohammed +15 more
