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

Sterol transporters at membrane contact sites regulate TORC1 and TORC2 signaling. [PDF]
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) function to facilitate the formation of membrane domains composed of specialized lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. In cells, membrane domains regulate membrane dynamics and biochemical and signaling pathways.

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

Crosslink between lipids and acute uveitis: a lipidomic analysis [PDF]
AIM: To explore the roles of phospholipids and sphingolipids in the inflammatory process of uveitis. METHODS: Aqueous humor (AH) and the retina were obtained from endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) rats during the acute inflammation stage (24h after ...

Ceramide is a Mediator of Apoptosis in Retina Photoreceptors [PDF]
PURPOSE. The precise mechanisms involved in photoreceptor apoptosis are still unclear. We here investigated the role of ceramide, a sphingolipid precursor that induces apoptosis upon cellular stress, in activating this death in photoreceptors.

Ethylene modulates sphingolipid synthesis in Arabidopsis
Sphingolipids have essential structural and bioactive functions in membranes and in signaling. However, how plants regulate sphingolipid biosynthesis in the response to stress remains unclear.

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.
