Sphingolipid signaling in kidney diseases. [PDF]
Sphingolipids are a family of bioactive lipids. The key components include ceramides, ceramide-1-phosphate, sphingosine, and sphingosine-1-phosphate. Sphingolipids were originally considered to be primarily structural elements of cell membranes but were later recognized as bioactive signaling molecules that play diverse roles in cellular behaviors such

Recent Insights into the Interplay of Alpha-Synuclein and Sphingolipid Signaling in Parkinson's Disease. [PDF]
Molecular studies have provided increasing evidence that Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a protein conformational disease, where the spread of alpha-synuclein (ASN) pathology along the neuraxis correlates with clinical disease outcome.

Inflammatory Ocular Diseases and Sphingolipid Signaling. [PDF]
Inflammation is a powerful immune countermeasure to tissue damage and infection. The inflammatory response is complex and requires the involvement of myriad signaling pathways and metabolic processes, all governed by a multitude of regulatory systems. Although inflammation is a vital defense against tissue injury and a necessary step in tissue healing,

Thematic Review Series: Sphingolipids. Nuclear sphingolipids: metabolism and signaling [PDF]
Sphingolipids are most prominently expressed in the plasma membrane, but recent studies have pointed to important signaling and regulatory roles in the nucleus. The most abundant nuclear sphingolipid is sphingomyelin (SM), which occurs in the nuclear envelope (NE) as well as intranuclear sites.

Role of Sphingolipid Signaling in Glomerular Diseases: Focus on DKD and FSGS. [PDF]
Sphingolipids are well-recognized as major players in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including chronic kidney disease. The kidney is a very sensitive organ to alterations in sphingolipid metabolism.

Intracellular S1P generation is essential for S1P-induced motility of human lung endothelial cells : role of sphingosine kinase 1 and S1P lyase [PDF]
Earlier we have shown that extracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) induces migration of human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) through the activation of S1P(1) receptor, PKCε, and PLD2-PKCζ-Rac1 signaling cascade.

Bile acids and sphingolipids in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the fastest-growing diseases, and its global prevalence is estimated to increase >50% by 2030. NAFLD is comorbid with metabolic syndrome, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and insulin resistance.

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.
