Journal ArticleDOI

Ceramide targets autophagosomes to mitochondria and induces lethal mitophagy

TL;DR: A novel receptor function of ceramide for anchoring LC3B-II-autophagolysosomes to mitochondrial membranes is suggested, defining a key mechanism for the induction of lethal mitophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sphingolipids and cancer: ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate in the regulation of cell death and drug resistance.

TL;DR: Drawing conclusions of recent studies that describe opposing roles of de novo-generated ceramides by ceramide synthases and/or S1P in the regulation of cancer pathogenesis, as well as the development of sphingolipid-based cancer therapeutics and drug resistance are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiapoptotic roles of ceramide-synthase-6-generated C16-ceramide via selective regulation of the ATF6/CHOP arm of ER-stress-response pathways

TL;DR: Data reveal an unexpected and novel prosur‐vival role of CerS6/C16‐ceramide involved in the protection against ER‐stress‐induced apoptosis and induction of HNSCC tumor growth.
