physiological function | in SMS2 knockout mice, SMS2 deficiency significantly decreases very long chain sphingomyelin (d18:1/22:0 and d18:1/24:0 or d18:0/24:1) and increases very long chain ceramie (d18:1/24:0 or d18:0/24:1 and d18:1/24:1), but not long chain sphingomyelin (d18:1/16:0, d18:1/18:0 or d18:0/18:1 and d18:1/18:1) in plasma. Presence of sphingomyelin d18:1/24:0 strongly upregulated several macrophage activation markers, sphingomyelin d18:1/6:0 and ceramide d18:1/24:0 however, does not | Mus musculus |
