Human Plasma Sphingomyelins.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
SummaryThe sphingomyelin region of human plasma lipids, entirely free from lecithin, has been fractionated into two components by thin-layer chromatography. Both components had properties characteristic of sphingomyelins, but markedly different fatty acid patterns, acids above C20 being concentrated in the less-polar material.

Depletion of Host and Viral Sphingomyelin Impairs Influenza Virus Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a major human respiratory pathogen causing annual epidemics as well as periodic pandemics. A complete understanding of the virus pathogenesis and host factors involved in the viral lifecycle is crucial for developing novel ...

Chlamydial infection from outside to inside [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Chlamydia are obligate intracellular bacteria, characterized by a unique biphasic developmental cycle. Specific interactions with the host cell are crucial for the bacteria's survival and amplification because of the reduced chlamydial genome.

Release of cholesterol-rich particles from the macrophage plasma membrane during movement of filopodia and lamellipodia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages release large numbers of ~30-nm cholesterol-rich particles. Here, we show that those particles represent fragments of the plasma membrane that are pulled away and left behind during the projection and retraction of ...

MARCH1 protects the lipid raft and tetraspanin web from MHCII proteotoxicity in dendritic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Dendritic cells (DCs) produce major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) in large amounts to function as professional antigen presenting cells. Paradoxically, DCs also ubiquitinate and degrade MHCII in a constitutive manner.

Sphingomyelin synthase overexpression increases cholesterol accumulation and decreases cholesterol secretion in liver cells

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2011
Background Studies have shown that plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels are negatively correlated with the development of atherosclerosis, whereas epidemiological studies have also shown that plasma sphingomyelin level is an independent ...

Apoptotic signaling through CD95 (Fas/Apo-1) activates an acidic sphingomyelinase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Intracellular pathways leading from membrane receptor engagement to apoptotic cell death are still poorly characterized. We investigated the intracellular signaling generated after cross-linking of CD95 (Fas/Apo-1 antigen), a broadly expressed cell ...

A lipid analogue that inhibits sphingomyelin hydrolysis and synthesis, increases ceramide, and leads to cell death

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
We report the synthesis and characterization of a novel thiourea derivative of sphingomyelin (AD2765). In vitro assays using pure enzyme and/or cell extracts revealed that this compound inhibited the hydrolysis of BODIPY-conjugated or 14C-labeled ...

Untargeted Lipidomic Analysis to Broadly Characterize the Effects of Pathogenic and Non-Pathogenic Staphylococci on Mammalian Lipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Modification of the host lipidome via secreted enzymes is an integral, but often overlooked aspect of bacterial pathogenesis. In the current era of prevalent antibiotic resistance, knowledge regarding critical host pathogen lipid interactions has the ...

Morphological and functional status of liver at rats having toxic hepatites during injections of the liposomes loaded by sphingomyelin or ceramide

open access: yesБюллетень сибирской медицины, 2005
At inflammation process development caused by CCl4 morphological and functional research of 200 rats liver tissue was carried out. The liposomes loaded by the components of a sphingomyelin lipid cycle – sphingomyelin and ceramide were administed.
