Thematic Review Series: Sphingolipids. Nuclear sphingolipids: metabolism and signaling* [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2008 Sphingolipids are most prominently expressed in the plasma membrane, but recent studies have pointed to important signaling and regulatory roles in the nucleus.

Kidney International, 2000 A significant corpus of work over the last decade has firmly established an important role for sphingolipids in a variety of important biological processes. Such processes include signaling events related to cell growth, differentiation, programmed cell death, and stress responses. These processes not only involve those sphingolipids that accumulate as

Sphingolipids in mitochondria—from function to disease
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Sphingolipids are not only structural components of cellular membranes but also play vital roles in cell signaling and modulation of cellular processes. Within mitochondria, sphingolipids exert diverse effects on mitochondrial dynamics, energy metabolism,

Sphingolipids and Mitochondrial Dynamic
Cells, 2020 For decades, sphingolipids have been related to several biological functions such as immune system regulation, cell survival, and proliferation. Recently, it has been reported that sphingolipids could be biomarkers in cancer and in other human disorders ...
