Interfacial Regulation of Acid Ceramidase Activity STIMULATION OF CERAMIDE DEGRADATION BY LYSOSOMAL LIPIDS AND SPHINGOLIPID ACTIVATOR
The lysosomal degradation of ceramide is catalyzed by acid ceramidase and requires sphingolipid activator proteins (SAP) as cofactors in vivo. The aim of this study was to investigate how ceramide is hydrolyzed by acid ceramidase at the water-membrane interface in the presence of sphingolipid activator proteins in a liposomal assay system. The degradation of membrane-bound ceramide was signific...

متن کاملDevelopment of an acid ceramidase activity-based probe.
Acid ceramidase is responsible for the ultimate step in the catabolism of (glyco)sphingolipids by hydrolysis of ceramide into sphingosine and free fatty acid. Deficiency in acid ceramidase is the molecular basis of Farber disease. Here we report the synthesis and characterization of an activity-based acid ceramidase probe.
متن کاملRegulation of CC ligand 5/RANTES by acid sphingomyelinase and acid ceramidase.
Acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase) generates the bioactive lipid ceramide (Cer) from hydrolysis of sphingomyelin (SM). However, its precise roles in regulating specific sphingolipid-mediated biological processes remain ill defined. Interestingly, the aSMase gene gives rise to two distinct enzymes, lysosomal sphingomyelinase (L-SMase) and secretory sphingomyelinase (S-SMase) via alternative traffick...
متن کاملAcid ceramidase confers radioresistance to glioblastoma cells
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary, intracranial malignancy of the central nervous system. The standard treatment protocol, which involves surgical resection, and concurrent radiation with adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ), still imparts a grim prognosis. Ultimately, all GBMs exhibit recurrence or progression, developing resistance to standard treatment. This study demonstrates ...
