Aging stress and ceramide dependent RNA sequencing expression profiling depends on ceramide synthase 6

Project description:The bioactive sphingolipid ceramide, generated by ceramide synthase, is an adaptive stress effector induced in response to various stress stimuli such as aging. In fact, ceramide synthase (CerS) was first discovered in yeast as a longevity assurance gene (LAG1), as the reduced ceramide generation consequent to LAG1 deletion increased longevity. There are six homologues of mammalian LAG1/ceramide synthases (CerS1-6) that generate ceramides with different fatty acid chain lengths with distinct functions and hydrophobicity. Ceramide can be metabolized by sphingosine kinase 1 or 2 for the generation of pro-survival sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), which enhances immune cell egress to the blood stream, activating immune function. Ceramide is known to induce mitophagy and cell death. Here we investigated the role of this sphingolipid pathway in immune function, specifically T cell functions, via high throughput expression profiling.

Liver proteome upon in vivo N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide silencing of ceramide synthase 2

Project description:Mouse liver proteome was investigated upon in vivo mouse treatment with a N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide engineered to silence ceramide synthase 2 specifically in hepatocytes in vivo. The data is a part of a study on the involvement of ceramide enzymatic machinery in cardiovasular disorders and its potential as a target for the disease treatment.

Fatty acid transport protein 2 interacts with ceramide synthase 2 to regulate ceramide synthesis

Project description:Dihydroceramide is generated via the action of (dihydro)ceramide synthases (CerSs), which use two substrates, namely sphinganine and fatty acyl CoAs. Sphinganine is generated via the sequential activity of two integral membrane proteins located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Less is known about the source of supply of the fatty acyl CoAs, although a number of cytosolic proteins in the pathways of acyl CoA generation have been shown to modulate ceramide synthesis via direct or indirect interaction with the CerSs. We now demonstrate, by proteomic analysis of immunoprecipitated proteins, that fatty acid transporter protein 2 (FATP2) (also known as very long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase) directly interacts with CerS2 in mouse liver. Studies in cultured cells demonstrated that other members of the FATP family can also interact with CerS2, with the interaction dependent on both proteins being catalytically active. Transfection of cells with FATP1, FATP2 or FATP4 increased ceramide levels although only FATP2 and 4 increased dihydroceramide levels, consistent with their known intracellular locations. Finally, lipofermata, an FATP2 inhibitor which is believed to directly impact tumor cell growth via modulation of FATP2, decreased de novo dihydroceramide synthesis, suggesting that some of the proposed therapeutic effects of lipofermata may actually be mediated via (dihydro)ceramide rather than directly via acyl CoA generation
