Sphingomyelin synthases and testicular function

open access: yes, 2008
Sphingomyelin synthase (SMS) is a cellular enzyme that catalyzes de novo synthesis of sphingomyelin (SM), which is a vital lipid component of cell membranes.

A Toxin-based Probe Reveals Cytoplasmic Exposure of Golgi Sphingomyelin

open access: yes
Although sphingomyelin is an important cellular lipid, its subcellular distribution is not precisely known. Here we use a sea anemone cytolysin, equinatoxin II (EqtII), which specifically binds sphingomyelin, as a new marker to detect cellular ...

Studies on the synthesis and transport of endogenous sphingomyelin in BHK-21 cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The synthesis and intracellular transport of sphingomyelin in BHK-21 cells has been studied in the presence of brefeldin A (BFA) and monensin which are inhibitors of vesicular transport through the Golgi apparatus.

Serum Lipidomics Profiling Identify Novel Biomarkers of Distal Symmetrical Polyneuropathy in Type 1 Diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSPN) is a common complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D), yet validated biomarkers for early detection or prognosis are lacking. Metabolic disturbances driven by chronic hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia contribute to DSPN development and progression.

Dapagliflozin Alters Plasma Metabolome in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes During Ketosis

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Use of sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is limited by increased risk of ketoacidosis. We aimed to determine metabolic pathways affected by SGLT2i treatment in adults with T1D during ketosis induced by insulin withdrawal.

A lipid‐sensitive food choice behavior influences aging outcomes from a longevity‐promoting diet

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C. elegans are exposed to a variety of bacteria in their natural environment and must be able to distinguish between beneficial and detrimental food sources. We show that C. elegans exposed to the bacterium from their natural habitat, Methylobacterium, disrupts lipid homeostasis, causing worms to avoid this bacterial species and choose the laboratory ...

Hypercapnia Induces Mitochondrial Adaptations and Alters Glutamine Metabolism to Drive a Distinct Metabolic Phenotype in Monocytes

open access: yesImmunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Elevated CO2 (hypercapnia) is a feature of serious lung diseases, for example COPD and contributes to poor patient prognosis through modulation of immune cell function. Here we employ state‐of‐the art metabolomic and isotope tracing approaches to reveal CO2‐dependent mitochondrial alterations linked to suppressed ATP, proline and glutamate levels in ...

Established and Emerging Biomarkers to Characterize Persons at Risk for Obesity—Paving the Way for Targeted Clinical Intervention Trials—A Comprehensive Position Paper

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite all efforts, obesity remains a major health concern worldwide, with continuously increasing rates, affecting approx. 14% of the total world population, being as high as 43% in some countries. As obesity is related to numerous comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer, the consequences ...

Understanding extracellular vesicle biology, isolation, and characterization: The theory of EV‐erything

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.
