General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function CerS5 is essential to maintain cellular C16:0 sphingolipid pools in lung, spleen, muscle, liver, and white adipose tissue. In CerS5-deficient mice, glycerophospholipid levels are not altered, while in skeletal muscle, liver, and spleen, C16:0-ceramide levels aere altered independent of feeding conditions. The loss of CerS5 is associated with reduced weight gain and improved systemic health, including maintenance of glucose homeostasis and reduced white adipose tissue inflammation after high fat diet challenge Mus musculus
