Sphingolipids and the immune system.

open access: yes, 2003
The importance of sphingolipids, not only as components of plasma membranes but also as key players in different physiological and pathophysiological cellular events, is now emerging.

Involvement of Sphingolipids in Ethanol Neurotoxicity in the Developing Brain

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2013
Ethanol-induced neuronal death during a sensitive period of brain development is considered one of the significant causes of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). In rodent models, ethanol triggers robust apoptotic neurodegeneration during a period of

Dietary sphingolipids in colorectal cancer prevention

open access: yes, 2002
Sphingolipids are widespread membrane components that are found in all eukaryotic cells. They consist of a long chain sphingoid-base, usually sphingosine, which is acylated at the 2-amino position, forming a ceramide.

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Quantitative analysis of sphingolipids for lipidomics using triple quadrupole and quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometers[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Sphingolipids are a highly diverse category of bioactive compounds. This article describes methods that have been validated for the extraction, liquid chromatographic (LC) separation, identification and quantitation of sphingolipids by electrospray ...

Very long chain sphingolipids: Tissue expression, function and synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Forecort membranes of all mammalian cells contain, in addition to phosphoglycerolipids and cholesterol, substantial amounts of sphingolipids. In most cells the acyl moieties of these sphingolipids are of long chain type (C16–24) and often saturated ...

Selective N‐Functionalization of Pyrazoles

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of regioselective N‐functionalization strategies for pyrazoles, a key class of nitrogen heterocycles widely used in medicinal chemistry. Due to rapid tautomerism, N‐functionalization often lacks selectivity, leading to poor and unpredictable regioisomeric outcomes.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.
