Plasma sphingomyelins increase in pre-diabetic Korean men with abdominal obesity.
PLoS ONE, 2019 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.

Lipid bilayers containing sphingomyelins and ceramides of varying N-acyl lengths: A glimpse into sphingolipid complexity [PDF]
, 2014 The thermotropic properties of aqueous dispersions of sphingomyelins (SM) and ceramides (Cer) with N-acyl chains varying from C6:0 to C24:1, either pure or in binary mixtures, have been examined by differential scanning calorimetry.

ATPase activity of human ABCG1 is stimulated by cholesterol and sphingomyelin[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2013 ATP-binding cassette protein G1 (ABCG1) is important for the formation of HDL. However, the biochemical properties of ABCG1 have not been reported, and the mechanism of how ABCG1 is involved in HDL formation remains unclear. We established a procedure to

Epidermal sphingomyelins are precursors for selected stratum corneum ceramides
Journal of Lipid Research, 2000 Epidermal ceramides (Cer) comprise a heterogeneous family of seven species, including two unique ω-hydroxylated Cer, that are key components of the stratum corneum (SC) intercellular lamellar membranes responsible for the epidermal permeability barrier ...

Membrane Properties of D-erythro-N-acyl Sphingomyelins and Their Corresponding Dihydro Species [PDF]
, 2001 We have prepared acyl chain-defined D-erythro-sphingomyelins and D-erythro-dihydrosphingomyelins and compared their properties in monolayer and bilayer membranes. Surface pressure/molecular area isotherms of D-erythro-N-16:0-sphingomyelin (16:0-SM) and D-

Coupled assay of sphingomyelin and ceramide molecular species by gas liquid chromatography
Journal of Lipid Research, 2002 This study reports a single-step analysis of the molecular species of endogenous ceramides and of the ceramide moiety of sphingomyelins in biological samples, using gas liquid chromatography (GLC).

Secreted sphingomyelins modulate low mammary cancer incidence observed in certain mammals
Scientific Reports, 2020 Determining mechanisms that naturally protect species from developing cancer is critical in order to prevent and treat cancer. Here, we describe a novel cancer-suppressing mechanism, via the secretion of bioactive factors by mammary cells, that is ...

Identification of a distinct pool of sphingomyelin involved in the sphingomyelin cycle.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1994 Sphingomyelin (SM) is a membrane phosphosphingolipid that has recently been identified as a key component of the SM cycle. In this signal transduction pathway, extracellular inducers such as tumor necrosis factor alpha cause hydrolysis of membrane SM, resulting in the generation of the lipid second messenger ceramide. Only 10-20% of cellular SM appears
