The accumulation of reactive aldehydes is implicated in the development of several disorders. Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) detoxify aldehydes by oxidizing them to the corresponding carboxylic acids. Among the 19 human ALDHs, ALDH3A2 is the only known ALDH that catalyzes the oxidation of long-chain fatty aldehydes including C16 aldehydes (hexadecanal and trans-2-hexadecenal) generated through sphingolipid metabolism. In the present study, we have identified that ALDH3B1 is also active in vitro toward C16 aldehydes and demonstrated that overexpression of ALDH3B1 restores the sphingolipid metabolism in the ALDH3A2-deficient cells. In addition, we have determined that ALDH3B1 is localized in the plasma membrane through its C-terminal dual lipidation (palmitoylation and prenylation) and shown that the prenylation is required particularly for the activity toward hexadecanal. Since knockdown of ALDH3B1 does not cause further impairment of the sphingolipid metabolism in the ALDH3A2-deficient cells, the likely physiological function of ALDH3B1 is to oxidize lipid-derived aldehydes generated in the plasma membrane and not to be involved in the sphingolipid metabolism in the endoplasmic reticulum.  相似文献

Chemotaxis induction is a major effect evoked by stimulation of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 with its sole ligand CXCL12. We now report that treatment of CHP-100 human neuroepithelioma cells with the glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) inhibitor DL-threo-1-phenyl-2-hexadecanoylamino-3-pyrrolidino-1-propanol inhibits CXCR4-dependent chemotaxis. We provide evidence that the phenomenon is not due to unspecific effects of the inhibitor employed and that inhibition of GCS neither affects total or plasmamembrane CXCR4 expression, nor CXCL12-induced Ca(2+) mobilization. The effects of the GCS inhibitor on impairment of CXCL12-induced cell migration temporally correlated with a pronounced downregulation of neutral glycosphingolipids, particularly glucosylceramide, and with a delayed and more moderate downregulation of gangliosides; moreover, exogenously administered glycosphingolipids allowed resumption of CXCR4-dependent chemotaxis. Altogether our results provide evidence, for the first time, for a role glycosphingolipids in sustaining CXCL12-induced cell migration.  相似文献

Macrophages synthesize and secrete apolipoprotein E (apoE) constitutively. This process is upregulated under conditions of cholesterol loading. The response to cholesterol is antiatherogenic as it is believed to promote cholesterol efflux from the artery wall. The concentration of lactosyl ceramide (LacCer), a glycosphingolipid recently discovered to regulate cellular signaling, proliferation, and expression of adhesion molecules, is also increased in atherosclerotic tissues. Here we have investigated the effect of exogenous LacCer on macrophage apoE levels. We show that increasing macrophage LacCer levels sevenfold led to reductions in cellular and secreted apoE (15 and 30%, respectively, over a 24-h period) as determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A similar effect was also induced by glucosyl ceramide (GlcCer) but not by ganglioside species. When macrophages were converted to cholesterol-loaded foam cells by incubation with acetylated LDL, the resulting increase in cellular apoE levels was inhibited by 26% when the cells were subsequently enriched with LacCer. After metabolic labeling of cellular glycosphingolipids with [14C]palmitate, we also discovered that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) stimulates the efflux of glycosphingolipids from foam cells. These data imply that LacCer and GlcCer may be proatherogenic due to the suppression of macrophage apoE production. Furthermore, the efflux of glycosphingolipids from macrophage foam cells to HDL could indicate a potential pathway for their removal from the artery wall and subsequent delivery to the liver.  相似文献

Sphingolipids are a family of lipids that play essential roles both as structural cell membrane components and in cell signalling. The cellular contents of the various sphingolipid species are controlled by enzymes involved in their metabolic pathways. In this context, the discovery of small chemical entities able to modify these enzyme activities in a potent and selective way should offer new pharmacological tools and therapeutic agents.  相似文献

UPAR is a GPI anchored protein, which is found in both lipid rafts and in more fluid regions of the plasma membrane. We have studied the role of the ligand uPA on uPAR localization and on the composition of the lipid membrane microdomains. We have analyzed the glycosphingolipid environment of uPAR in detergent resistant membrane (DRM) fractions prepared by cell lysis with 1% Triton X-100 and fractionated by sucrose gradient centrifugation obtained from HEK293-uPAR cells. The uPAR specific lipid membrane microdomain has been separated from the total DRM fraction by immunoprecipitation with an anti-uPAR specific antibody under conditions that preserve membrane integrity. We have also tested uPA-induced ERK phosphorylation in the presence of methyl-β-cyclodextrin, which is known to disrupt lipid rafts by sequestering cholesterol from such domains. Our results show that uPAR is partially associated with DRM and this association is increased by ligands, is independent of the catalytic activity of uPA, and is required for intracellular signalling. In the absence of ligands, uPAR experiences a lipid environment very similar to that of total DRM, enriched in sphingomyelin and glycosphingolipids. However, after treatment of cells with uPA or ATF the lipid environment is strongly impoverished of neutral glycosphingolipids.  相似文献

Sphingolipids containing very long acyl chains are abundant in certain specialized tissues and minor components of plasma membranes in most mammalian cells. There are cellular processes in which these sphingolipids are required, and the function seems to be mediated through sphingolipid-rich membrane domains. This study was conducted to explore how very long acyl chains of sphingolipids influence their lateral distribution in membranes. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that 24:0- and 24:1-sphingomyelins, galactosylceramides and glucosylceramides exhibited complex thermotropic behavior and partial miscibility with palmitoyl sphingomyelin. The Tm was decreased by about 20 °C for all 24:1-sphingolipids compared to the corresponding 24:0-sphingolipids. The ability to pack tightly with ordered and extended acyl chains is a necessity for membrane lipids to partition into ordered domains in membranes and thus the 24:1-sphingolipids appeared less likely to do so. Fluorescence quenching measurements showed that the 24:0-sphingolipids formed ordered domains in multicomponent membranes, both as the only sphingolipid and mixed with palmitoyl sphingomyelin. These domains had a high packing density which appeared to hinder the partitioning of sterols into them, as reported by the fluorescent cholesterol analog cholestatrienol. 24:0-SM was, however, better able to accommodate sterol than the glycosphingolipids. The 24:1-sphingolipids could, depending on head group structure, either stabilize or disrupt ordered sphingolipid/cholesterol domains. We conclude that very long chain sphingolipids, when present in biological membranes, may affect the physical properties of or the distribution of sterols between lateral domains. It was also evident that not only the very long acyl chain but also the specific molecular structure of the sphingolipids was of importance for their membrane properties.  相似文献

Neuroblastoma and glioma cells were grown in the presence of [3H]galactose, and the incorporation of 3H into gangliosides and the transport of newly synthesized gangliosides to the cell surface were examined under different experimental conditions. A variety of drugs, including inhibitors of protein synthesis and energy metabolism, modulators of the cytoskeleton and the ionophore monensin, had no effect on the transport of newly synthesized GD1a in neuroblastoma cells. Only low temperature effectively blocked translocation to the plasma membrane. Monensin, however, had marked effects on the biosynthesis of gangliosides and neutral glycosphingolipids. Whereas incorporation of 3H into complex glycosphingolipids was reduced, labeling of glucosylceramide was increased in cells exposed to monensin. In addition, biosynthesis of the latter glycolipid was less susceptible to low temperatures than that of more complex ones. Previous studies have implicated the Golgi apparatus as the predominant site of glycosylation of gangliosides. As monensin has been reported to interfere with the Golgi apparatus, our results indicate that glucosylceramide may be synthesized at a site that is separate from the site where further glycosylation occurs. Once synthesis of a ganglioside is completed, transport of the molecule to the cell surface proceeds under conditions of cytoskeletal disruption, energy depletion and ionic inbalance, but not low temperature.  相似文献

Sphingolipids function as bioactive mediators of different cellular processes, mostly proliferation, survival, differentiation and apoptosis, besides being structural components of cellular membranes. Involvement of sphingolipid metabolism in cancerogenesis was demonstrated in solid tumors as well as in hematological malignancies. Herein, we describe the main biological and clinical aspects of leukemias and summarize data regarding sphingolipids as mediators of apoptosis triggered in response to anti-leukemic agents and synthetic analogs as inducers of cell death as well. We also report the contribution of molecules that modulate sphingolipid metabolism to development of encouraging strategies for leukemia treatment. Finally we address how deregulation of sphingolipid metabolism is associated to occurrence of therapy resistance both in vitro and in vivo. Sphingolipids can be considered promising therapeutic tools alone or in combination with other compounds, as well as valid targets in the attempt to eradicate leukemia and overcome drug resistance.  相似文献

In view of the increasing evidence that gangliosides in membrane microdomains or rafts are closely associated with various signal transducing molecules including Src family kinases, we compared rafts in two subclones of 3LL mouse lung carcinoma cell line, J18 and J5, characterized by high and very low GM3 ganglioside contents, respectively. Rafts were isolated from cell lysates as low density detergent-insoluble microdomains (DIM) by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. J5 and J18 cells expressed comparable amounts of Src family kinases and the majority of Src kinases in both clones were concentrated in their DIMs, suggesting that GM3 is not necessary for DIM localization of Src kinases and there is no direct interaction between Src and GM3. However, the Src kinases were eliminated from DIMs after depletion of the major neutral GSLs of J5 cells, glucosylceramide and lactosylceramide, by an inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase (D-PDMP), indicating that GSLs in general are required for Src kinase association to DIM. J5 and the D-PDMP-treated J5 cells had very similar DIM protein profiles and moreover cholesterol and sphingomyelin in the GSL-depleted cells were enriched in DIM similar to the untreated control cells. Interestingly, the levels of tyrosine-phosphorylated DIM proteins and cell proliferation of J5 cells were much lower than those of J18 cells, suggesting that GM3 might be involved in tyrosine phosphorylation of DIM proteins required for cell growth. Thus, our data suggest that GSLs are essential for functional raft formation.  相似文献
