Sphingolipid Metabolism and Neutral Sphingomyelinases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sphingolipids are an important class of lipid molecules that play fundamental roles in our cells and body. Beyond a structural role, it is now clearly established that sphingolipids serve as bioactive signaling molecules to regulate diverse processes including inflammatory signaling, cell death, proliferation, and pain sensing. Sphingolipid metabolites

Lysosomal sphingomyelinase is not solicited for apoptosis signaling

open access: yes, 2000
International audienceABSTRACT Stress‐induced activation of an acidic sphingomyelinase leading to generation of ceramide, an important lipid mediator, has been associated with apoptosis; however, the implication of this hydrolase has been questioned. The

Multiplex analysis of sphingolipids using amine-reactive tags (iTRAQ)

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2011
Ceramides play a crucial role in divergent signaling events, including differentiation, senescence, proliferation, and apoptosis. Ceramides are a minor lipid component in terms of content; thus, highly sensitive detection is required for accurate ...

Penfluridol targets acid sphingomyelinase to inhibit TNF signaling and is therapeutic against inflammatory autoimmune diseases

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2022
Background Penfluridol, isolated from an FDA-approved small-molecule drug library as an inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα)-stimulated NF-κB activation, is clinically used to treat chronic schizophrenia and related disorders.

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.

Structure and Function of Sphingomyelinase

open access: yesYAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2009
Bacillus cereus is one that causes of opportunistic human infections. Sphingomyelinase produced by B. cereus is assumed a virulence factor for the infection. Sphingomyelinase from Bacillus cereus (Bc-SMase) is Mg(2+)-containing metalloenzyme. Bc-SMase is a family of neutral SMase (nSMase) and mimics the actions of the endogenous mammalian nSMase in ...

Identifikation neuer klinischer Anwendungen für Saure Sphingomyelinase Inhibitoren [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Acid sphingomyelinase is a lysosomal enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide. Acid sphingomyelinase/ceramide have been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of different diseases.

Anxiety and Depression Are Related to Higher Activity of Sphingolipid Metabolizing Enzymes in the Rat Brain

open access: yesCells, 2020
Changes in sphingolipid metabolism have been suggested to contribute to the pathophysiology of major depression. In this study, we investigated the activity of acid and neutral sphingomyelinases (ASM, NSM) and ceramidases (AC, NC), respectively, in ...

ROLE OF CERAMIDE IN TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR MOVEMENT IN THE PLANE OF THE PLASMA MEMBRANE [PDF]

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2010
After ligation with transferrin (Tf), transferrin receptor (TfR) is aggregated on cell surface in clathrin coated pits and then internalized into the cell.

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...
