CD28 signals through acidic sphingomyelinase.
T cell receptor recognition of antigen can lead either to T lymphocyte differentiation and proliferation or to a state of unresponsiveness, which is dependent on whether appropriate costimulatory signals are provided to the mature T cell.

• EV content maintains cellular homeostasis and is involved in several disease onset and progression. • miRNA export in EVs depends on: RNA‐binding proteins recognizing motif sequences and on epitranscriptomic modifications. • The disclosure of delivery mechanisms is crucial for developing personalized EV‐based therapeutic tools.

Ceramides and sphingomyelinases in senile plaques
The senile plaque is a hallmark lesion of Alzheimer disease (AD). We compared, without a priori, the lipidome of the senile plaques and of the adjacent plaque-free neuropil. The analysis by liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry revealed that laser microdissected senile plaques were enriched in saturated ceramides ...

Curating the Fetal Genome: Experience of the ClinGen Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel (GCEP)
ABSTRACT Objective Expert prenatal focused gene‐disease curation is necessary to accurately inform clinical care in the setting of rapidly expanding prenatal genomic sequencing. Methods An international Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel assembled and systematically reviewed genes asserted to be associated with prenatal hydrops, stillbirth, or severe ...

Acid sphingomyelinase activity triggers microparticle release from glial cells
We have earlier shown that microglia, the immune cells of the CNS, release microparticles from cell plasma membrane after ATP stimulation. These vesicles contain and release IL-1beta, a crucial cytokine in CNS inflammatory events.

During atherogenesis, the extracellular pH of atherosclerotic lesions decreases. Here, we examined the effect of low, but physiologically plausible pH on aggregation of modified LDL, one of the key processes in atherogenesis.

ABSTRACT Aim The aim was to characterize the taxonomic and functional composition of the microbiome involved in primary endodontic infections and to evaluate their association with the periapical lesion size using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Methodology Samples from primary root canal infections diagnosed with apical periodontitis were analysed ...

Sphingomyelinase has an insulin-like effect on glucose transporter translocation in adipocytes
Rat epididymal adipocytes were incubated with 0, 0.1, and 1 mU sphingomyelinase/ml for 30 or 60 min, and glucose uptake and GLUT-1 and GLUT-4 translocation were assessed. Adipocytes exposed to 1 mU sphingomyelinase/ml exhibited a 173% increase in glucose

Absorption and lipoprotein transport of sphingomyelin
Dietary sphingomyelin (SM) is hydrolyzed by intestinal alkaline sphingomyelinase and neutral ceramidase to sphingosine, which is absorbed and converted to palmitic acid and acylated into chylomicron triglycerides (TGs).
