Journal ArticleDOI

Ceramide synthase 4 and de novo production of ceramides with specific N-acyl chain lengths are involved in glucolipotoxicity-induced apoptosis of INS-1 β-cells

TL;DR: The results suggest that glucolipotoxicity induces β-cell apoptosis through a dual mechanism involving de novo ceramide biosynthesis and the formation of ceramides with specific N-acyl chain lengths rather than an overall increase in ceramide content.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ex vivo effects of high-density lipoprotein exposure on the lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory response in patients with severe cirrhosis.

TL;DR: High‐density lipoproteins (rHDL) abolishes the LPS‐induced overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines in whole blood from patients with severe cirrhosis, suggesting that administration of rHDL might be a useful strategy for the treatment of Cirrhosis to limit L PS‐induced cytokine overproduction.
