Ceramide synthase CERS4 gene downregulation is associated with KRAS mutation in colorectal cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Ceramide, the central molecule in sphingolipid synthesis, is a bioactive lipid that serves as a regulatory molecule in the anti-inflammatory responses, apoptosis, programmed necrosis, autophagy, and cell motility of cancer cells.

The Manifold Roles of Sphingolipids in Viral Infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Sphingolipids are essential components of eukaryotic cells. In this review, we want to exemplarily illustrate what is known about the interactions of sphingolipids with various viruses at different steps of their replication cycles.

A systematic simulation of the effect of salicylic acid on sphingolipid metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) affects plant development and defense responses. Recent studies revealed that SA also participates in the regulation of sphingolipid metabolism, but the details of this regulation remain to be explored.

Defective CFTR increases synthesis and mass of sphingolipids that modulate membrane composition and lipid signaling

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) that affect protein structure and channel function.

Altered expression of glycobiology-related genes in Parkinson’s disease brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
The precise mechanisms initiating and perpetuating the cellular degeneration in Parkinson’s disease (PD) remain unclear. There is decreased expression of the main brain gangliosides, and GM1 ganglioside in particular, in the PD brain along with decreased

Fumonisin B1: A Tool for Exploring the Multiple Functions of Sphingolipids in Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Fumonisin toxins are produced by Fusarium fungal pathogens. Fumonisins are structural analogs of sphingosine and potent inhibitors of ceramide synthases (CerSs); they disrupt sphingolipid metabolism and cause disease in plants and animals.

Lipidomics of the chicken egg yolk: high-resolution mass spectrometric characterization of nutritional lipid families

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2021
While previous studies have characterized the fatty acids and global lipid families of the chicken egg yolk, there have been no publications characterizing the individual lipids in these lipid families.

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.
