Regulation of Sphingosine-1-phosphate Lyase Gene Expression by Members of the GATA Family of Transcription Factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Sphingosine-1-phosphate is a bioactive sphingolipid that regulates proliferation, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis. Sphingosine-1-phosphate is irreversibly degraded by the highly conserved enzyme sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase.

Engineered ETS1‐Nanoconjugate Restores Immune Homeostasis through Dual Immune‐Vascular Modulation in Relapsing and Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The biomimetic nanoplatform IMNP (ETS1 pDNA/PBAE@ITP‐MM) undergoes targeted disassembly at inflammatory vascular sites to release the ETS1 plasmid (pETS1). This release initiates a cascade of effects that inhibit pathogenic pathways and support immune homeostasis. (Abbreviations: EndMT, endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition; EC, endothelial cell; TC, T

Serum sphingosine negatively correlates with albumin predicting the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2020
Background: The roles of sphingosine in various cancers have not been fully investigated. Our aim was to identify the relationship between serum sphingosine and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Bench-to-bedside review: the role of activated protein C in maintaining endothelial tight junction function and its relationship to organ injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Activated protein C (APC) has emerged as a novel therapeutic agent for use in selected patients with severe sepsis, even though the mechanism of its benefit is not well established.

Taurocholic Acid Is Associated With Disturbed Functional Connectivity in the Hippocampus of Patients With Depression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies elevated taurocholic acid (TCA) in Major Depressive Disorder patients. Gut microbiome‐associated TCA impairs hippocampal neurogenesis, triggers microglia activation, and elicits depression‐like behavior in mice via the S1PR2. In patients, functional neuroimaging reveals that serum TCA levels correlate with altered functional ...

Thematic Review Series: Skin Lipids. Antimicrobial lipids at the skin surface

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
The skin surface represents our interface with the external environment, and as such, is our first line of defense against microbial colonization and infection. Lipids at the skin surface are thought to underlie at least part of an antimicrobial barrier.

Western Diet Inhibits FUT7‐Mediated Treg Intestinal Homing to Disrupt the Homeostasis of Intestinal Epithelial Cells in Crohn's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we constructed a nanoparticle that was CD4 antibody‐mediated targeted, Fut7‐expressing plasmid‐loaded cationic liposome, namely CD4‐LDP‐Fut7. Upregulation of Fut7 expression in Tregs by using CD4‐LDP‐Fut7 can increase Treg homing to the intestine, thereby facilitating repair of the intestinal epithelial barrier and inhibiting ...

Intestinal absorption of dietary maize glucosylceramide in lymphatic duct cannulated rats

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous in all eukaryotic organisms. Various physiological functions of dietary sphingolipids, such as preventing colon cancer and improving the skin barrier function, have been recently reported. One of the common sphingolipids used

A Role of Sphingosine in the Intracellular Survival of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Obligate human pathogenic Neisseria gonorrhoeae are the second most frequent bacterial cause of sexually transmitted diseases. These bacteria invade different mucosal tissues and occasionally disseminate into the bloodstream.
