Four ganglioside fractions were isolated from rabbit muscle : one hematoside and three hexosamine-containing species. They were analyzed for hexoses, hexosamine, sialic acid, fatty acids, and long-chain base content.

Integrative Omics Defines Metabolic Biomarkers and Genetic Regulatory Mechanisms of Mortality Risk
Understanding mortality mechanisms remains a fundamental challenge. Through multi‐omics analysis of a three‐generation chicken model, are identified 45,585 mQTLs and establish a 16‐metabolite predictor of mortality. An inflammation‐growth trade‐off and evolutionarily conserved pathways involving butyrate–microbiota interactions and L‐cysteine's dual ...

Pan-active imidazolopiperazine antimalarials target the Plasmodium falciparum intracellular secretory pathway. [PDF]
A promising new compound class for treating human malaria is the imidazolopiperazines (IZP) class. IZP compounds KAF156 (Ganaplacide) and GNF179 are effective against Plasmodium symptomatic asexual blood-stage infections, and are able to prevent ...

Fenretinide (4‐hydroxyphenylretinamide, 4HPR) is a promising anticancer agent that is being evaluated in human clinical trials. One of the proposed mechanisms of action for fenretinide is to increase the biosynthesis of ceramide, an inducer of apoptosis. Using LC ESI MS/MS for “sphingolipidomic” analysis of MCF7 cells, we find that fenretinide elevates

HEPES in Cell Culture Alters the Multi‐Omics Profile Exhibited by Gaucher Disease Fibroblasts
ABSTRACT Lysosomal function can be affected by components in cell culture. This in turn may influence cellular metabolism and, consequently, research and diagnostics outcomes. One such component is the commonly used pH buffer 4‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐1‐piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES).

Sphingolipids are vital components of cell membranes. Metabolic disruptions of sphingolipids, including ceramide and sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, are linked to neurological disorders. This article summarizes the classification, structure, and metabolic processes of sphingolipids, and the physiological and pathological effects of sphingolipid metabolism and

A rapid ceramide synthase activity using NBD-sphinganine and solid phase extraction
Ceramides are synthesized by six mammalian ceramide synthases (CerSs), each of which uses fatty acyl-CoAs of different chain lengths for N-acylation of the sphingoid long-chain base. We now describe a rapid and reliable CerS assay that uses a fluorescent

Sphingosine mediates FTY720-induced apoptosis in LLC-PK1 cells [PDF]
FTY720, a synthetic sphingoid base analog, was examined as a new sphingosine kinase inhibitor, which converts endogenous sphingosine into its phosphate form.
