The effects of orally administered sphingomyelin-based liposomes (SM-lipo) on muscle function were investigated in senescence-accelerated mice prone 1 (SAMP1) for the purpose of protection against or treatment of sarcopenia. SM-lipo were prepared by thin lipid-film hydration followed by extrusion.
One of the main mechanisms of chronic fatigue syndrome development involves disturbances of interaction between the immune and neuroendocrine systems. The adequate experimental model for the search of these mechanisms is induction of fatigue in animals via the single intraperitoneal administration
Sphingomyelin derivatives exert various second messenger actions in numerous tissues. Sphingosine (SPH) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) are two major sphingomyelin derivatives present at high levels in blood. The aim of the present work was to investigate whether S1P and SPH exert relevant actions
Sphingomyelinase (SMase) hydrolyzes membrane sphingomyelin into ceramide, which increases oxidants in nonmuscle cells. Serum SMase activity is elevated in sepsis and heart failure, conditions where muscle oxidants are increased, maximal muscle force is diminished, and fatigue is accelerated. We
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, relapsing non-infectious inflammatory condition of the intestinal tract with two main phenotypes -ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD)- and a globally increasing incidence and prevalence. Nearly 80% of the IBD patients with active disease
More than 230,000 veterans-about 1/3 of US personnel deployed in the 1990-1991 Persian Gulf War-developed chronic, multi-symptom health problems now called "Gulf War illness" (GWI), for which mechanisms and objective diagnostic signatures continue to be It has previously been shown that prolonged exercise of moderate intensity reduces the content of ceramide in each type of skeletal muscle. This was accompanied by a reduction in the activity of neutral, Mg++-dependent sphingomyelinase (the major enzyme responsible for ceramide formation from
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid involved in the regulation of biological processes such as proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival. Here we review the role of S1P in the biology and homeostasis of skeletal muscle. S1P derives from the catabolism of sphingomyelin and
In this review, potential roles for the endogenous sphingolipid, sphingosine, and its derivatives are described for muscle cells. Sphingosine modulates the function of important calcium channels in muscle, including the ryanodine receptor (RyR) calcium release channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) comprises carbohydrates, membrane-specific proteins, glycoproteins, phospholipids, and sphingolipids. We evaluated the effects of MFGM consumption over a 12-wk period on endurance capacity and energy metabolism in BALB/c mice. Long-term MFGM intake combined with
