Ceramide is a sphingolipid that has been implicated both in apoptosis and protection from cell death. We show that in both rat cerebellar granule cells and cortical neuronal cultures application of C(2)-ceramide causes cell death in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Similar effects were observed wi
As described previously, a relatively high dose of neurotrophins increased the release of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) from cultured microglia. This biological response is suggested to be caused by ceramide, which is a metabolite of nerve growth factor low-affinity receptor (NGFRp75)-a
