General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inhibiting the enzyme in the astrocytes decreases the levels of both TNFalpha and interleukin-1beta in the conditioned media, which in turn reduced the neural and acidic sphingomyelinase activities and BACE1 level in primary neurons, overview Rattus norvegicus
physiological function serine palmitoyltransferase in the astrocytes increases ceramide levels, which enhances the release of cytokines that mediate the activation of neural and acidic sphingomyelinase (N-SMase and A-SMase) in the neurons, to propagate the deleterious effects of palmitate, i.e. BACE1 upregulation and amyloidogenesis in primary rat neurons, overview Rattus norvegicus
