Example sentences for: sphingomyelin

How can you use “sphingomyelin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The essential step in plasma membrane destabilization and MP-release very likely is a caspase-dependent sphingomyelin hydrolysis, which leads to the production of ceramide [ 28 29 30 ] . It is possible, however, that sphingomyelin hydrolysis and MP-release may be a consequence of the action of initiator caspases or other ZVAD sensitive proteases rather than only executioner caspases [ 15 31 32 ] . Our study was performed in HUVEC culture, which may have particular properties in respect of MP release when compared with endothelial cells from other organs.

  • TNFα elevates ceramide in CLENDO cells, whereas sFasL elevates ceramide in primary luteal steroidogenic cells [ 26 ] . Ceramide treatment induces apoptosis in both cell types, suggesting that the sphingomyelin pathway may be a common mediator of cell death among distinct cell types within the CL.

  • The ratio of 18:1n7/16:1n7 in sphingomyelin was decreased by FUNG and FUNG+FISH; in PC, PE, and CL only FUNG feeding decreased the 18:1n7/16:1n7 ratio.

  • Interestingly, we find that two different cytokines ( i.e. sFasL and TNFα) can activate the sphingomyelin pathway in two distinct CL cell types.

  • L-α-phosphatidylethanolamine, L-α-phosphatidylcholine, L-α-phosphatidyl-L-serine, L-α-phosphatidylinositol, L-α-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate, sphingomyelin were identified by using a standard solution.
