Distribution of molecular species of sphingomyelins in different parts of bovine digestive tract
Sphingomyelins were isolated from mucosal layers of bovine rennet stomach, duodenum, jejunoileum, and colon ascendens. The ceramides obtained after phospholipase degradation were characterized by thin-layer chromatography, mass spectrometry, and gas ...

The metabolic profile of waist to hip ratio-A multi-cohort study.
BackgroundThe genetic background of general obesity and fat distribution is different, pointing to separate underlying physiology. Here, we searched for metabolites and lipoprotein particles associated with fat distribution, measured as waist/hip ratio ...

Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Visualizing sphingomyelin in the retina
Sphingomyelin (SM) is a major component of cellular membranes that is altered by retinal and optic nerve degenerations. However, our understanding of the influence of SM during degenerations is hampered by methodological limitations. Prior investigations have demonstrated the accumulation of SM to plasma membranes of cultured cells, using an enhanced ...

Plasma sphingomyelins increase in pre-diabetic Korean men with abdominal obesity.
Abdominal or visceral obesity is a well-known risk factor for metabolic diseases. However, whether abdominal obesity significantly affects plasma lipid profile during the development of type 2 diabetes has not been fully elucidated.

This study utilizes a two‐sample Mendelian randomization framework to establish a causal link between circulating inflammatory proteins, blood metabolites, and the risk of serous ovarian carcinoma. Our findings identify Interleukin‐8 as a significant risk factor and demonstrate that 1‐Palmitoyl‐GPG (16:0) acts as a metabolic mediator within this ...
