ER stress-mediated apoptosis in a new mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]
Osteogenesis imperfecta is an inherited disorder characterized by increased bone fragility, fractures, and osteoporosis, and most cases are caused by mutations affecting the type I collagen genes.

Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 3, a critical regulator of bone and tooth mineralization
A recessive mutation called fragilitas ossium (fro) in the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 3 (Smpd3) gene leads to impaired mineralization of bone and tooth extracellular matrix in fro/fro mice. SMPD3 (also known as nSMase2) cleaves sphingomyelin present

B lymphocytes impair osteogenesis by inhibiting BMSC differentiation in osteoporosis
Background: B lymphocytes have been implicated in the inhibition of osteogenesis, but their role in osteoporosis (OP) remains unclear. This study investigates the association between B lymphocytes and impaired osteogenesis in OP patients and explores the

Krm2 overexpression and Lrp5 deficiency result in increased osteoclast number.
(A) Osteoclasts were identified by histochemical staining of tartrat-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) at day 10 post fracture. (B) Osteoclast number was determined in the peripheral callus at day 10 post fracture.

Prenatal tobacco smoke exposure is associated with childhood DNA CpG methylation.
BackgroundSmoking while pregnant is associated with a myriad of negative health outcomes in the child. Some of the detrimental effects may be due to epigenetic modifications, although few studies have investigated this hypothesis in detail.ObjectivesTo ...

ROLE OF SPHINGOLIPID METABOLISM IN MELANOMA PROGRESSION [PDF]
Gli sfingolipidi sono lipidi polari coinvolti in numerosi processi biologici. Ne consegue che sia gli sfingolipidi che gli enzimi coinvolti nel loro metabolismo, sono importanti per l’omeostasi cellulare e partecipano in numerosi processi fisio ...

High Dose C6 Ceramide-Induced Response in Embryonic Hippocampal Cells
Ceramide is a critical molecule in both the physiology and pathology of the central nervous system. The most studied aspect is its effect on embryonic/stem cells. A salient question is whether low doses of ceramide induce neuronal differentiation without
