Dysregulation of sphingolipid metabolism in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Biology & Therapy, 2011
Altered sphingolipid metabolism contributes to cancer progression and presents an exploitable target for the development of novel chemotherapeutics. Bioactive sphingolipid metabolites also have the potential to serve as vital biomarkers for cancer and be utilized to determine disease progression, as well as guide therapeutic regimens.

Sphingolipid metabolism diseases

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2006
Human diseases caused by alterations in the metabolism of sphingolipids or glycosphingolipids are mainly disorders of the degradation of these compounds. The sphingolipidoses are a group of monogenic inherited diseases caused by defects in the system of lysosomal sphingolipid degradation, with subsequent accumulation of non-degradable storage material ...

Phospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism in Leishmania [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 2010
In many eukaryotes, phospholipids (PLs) and sphingolipids (SLs) are abundant membrane components and reservoirs for important signaling molecules. In Leishmania, the composition, metabolism, and function of PLs and SLs differ significantly from those in mammalian cells.

Sphingolipid Signaling in Metabolic Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2012
Sphingolipids, ubiquitous membrane lipids in eukaryotes, carry out a myriad of critical cellular functions. The past two decades have seen significant advances in sphingolipid research, and in 2010 a first sphingolipid receptor modulator was employed as a human therapeutic. Furthermore, cellular signaling mechanisms regulated by sphingolipids are being

Genetic Determinants of Circulating Sphingolipid Concentrations in European Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Sphingolipids have essential roles as structural components of cell membranes and in cell signalling, and disruption of their metabolism causes several diseases, with diverse neurological, psychiatric, and metabolic consequences.

Inhibition of sphingolipid metabolism in osteosarcoma protects against CD151-mediated tumorigenicity

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2022
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor, with a poor prognosis owing to the lack of efficient molecular-based targeted therapies. Previous studies have suggested an association between CD151 and distinct consequences in osteosarcoma ...

Functional analysis of TOR complex 2 and its control of sphingolipid biosynthesis in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
sphingoid base, one of the intermediate of sphingolipids metabolites, plays a key role as a signaling molecule which activate PKH kinases and its substrates YPKs and PKC1 (Casamayor, Torrance et al. 1999; Friant, Lombardi et al.
