Neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) is the primary neutral sphingomyelinase isoform activated by tumour necrosis factor-α in MCF-7 cells [PDF]
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 ...

Neutral Sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) Is a Phosphoprotein Regulated by Calcineurin (PP2B)* [PDF]
We previously reported that exposure of human airway epithelial cells to oxidative stress increased ceramide generation via specific activation of neutral sphingomyelinase2 (nSMase2). Here we show that nSMase2 is a phosphoprotein exclusively phosphorylated at serine residues.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are indispensable mediators of intercellular communication, but they can also assume a nefarious role by ferrying pathological cargo that contributes to neurological, oncological, inflammatory, and infectious diseases. The canonical pathway for generating EVs involves the endosomal sorting complexes required for transport ...

nSMase2 activation and trafficking are modulated by oxidative stress to induce apoptosis [PDF]
We have previously shown that accumulation of ceramide, triggered by hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), induces apoptosis of human airway epithelial (HAE) cells. Under oxidant exposure, a lung sphingomyelinase (SMase) is activated and displays continued ceramide generation and pro-apoptotic signaling, thus leading to the pathological apoptosis that causes ...

nSMase2 inhibition reduces tau propagation in Alzheimer’s Disease mouse models
Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2022AbstractBackgroundAlzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia worldwide and is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, putatively driven by the accumulation Amyloid‐b and hyperphosphorylated Tau. Clinical trial successes focusing on reducing Amyloid‐b plaque levels in patient brains have been modest ...

Abstract A59: A tumor supressor role for nSMase2 in triple negative breast cancer
Cancer Immunology Research, 2022Abstract PURPOSEIn this study, we assess a putative tumor suppressor role for neutral sphingomyelinase-2 (nSMase2) in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and determine if nSMase2 effects are through cell intrinsic or extrinsic mechanisms.

Exosomes have a critical role in the intercellular communication and metastatic progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, our group showed that α2, 6-sialylation played an important role in the proliferation- and migration-promoting effects of cancer-derived exosomes. However, the molecular basis remains elusive.

Chronic exposure of blood vessels to cardiovascular risk factors such as free fatty acids, LDL-cholesterol, homocysteine and hyperglycemia can give rise to endothelial dysfunction, partially due to decreased synthesis and bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO). Many of these same risk factors have been shown to induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in

ABSTRACT The pleiotropic roles of nSMase2-generated ceramide include regulation of intracellular ceramide signaling and exosome biogenesis. We investigated the effects of eliminating nSMase2 on early and advanced PDA, including its influence on the microenvironment. Employing the KPC mouse model of pancreatic cancer, we demonstrate that
