Sphingosine 1-phosphate modulates antigen capture by murine langerhans cells via the S1P2 receptor subtype [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a pivotal role in the development of cutaneous contact hypersensitivity (CHS) and atopic dermatitis as they capture and process antigen and present it to T lymphocytes in the lymphoid organs.

Sphingolipids have become established participants in the pathogenesis of obesity and its associated maladies. Sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1), which generates S1P, has been shown to increase in liver and adipose of obese humans and mice and to regulate ...

Release of cholesterol-rich particles from the macrophage plasma membrane during movement of filopodia and lamellipodia. [PDF]
Cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages release large numbers of ~30-nm cholesterol-rich particles. Here, we show that those particles represent fragments of the plasma membrane that are pulled away and left behind during the projection and retraction of ...

2-Amino-14,16-dimethyloctadecan-3-ol (AOD) is commonly found in foods contaminated with Fusarium avenaceum, particularly cereals or fruits, and is structurally related to Fusarium mycotoxins (fumonisins) and mammalian sphingoid bases, especially 1 ...

Targeting Ceramides and Adiponectin Receptors in the Islet of Langerhans for Treating Diabetes
Ceramides belong to the sphingolipid family and represent the central hub of the sphingolipid network. In obesity, oversupply of saturated fatty acids including palmitate raises ceramide levels which can be detrimental to cells.

MARCH1 protects the lipid raft and tetraspanin web from MHCII proteotoxicity in dendritic cells [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) produce major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) in large amounts to function as professional antigen presenting cells. Paradoxically, DCs also ubiquitinate and degrade MHCII in a constitutive manner.

Metabolism of HSAN1- and T2DM-associated 1-deoxy-sphingolipids inhibits the migration of fibroblasts
Hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1 (HSAN1) is a rare axonopathy, characterized by a progressive loss of sensation (pain, temperature, and vibration), neuropathic pain, and wound healing defects.

Open field study of some Zea mays hybrids, lipid compounds and fumonisins accumulation [PDF]
Lipid molecules are increasingly recognized as signals exchanged by organisms interacting in pathogenic and/or symbiotic ways. Some classes of lipids actively determine the fate of the interactions.
