- W2069921134 abstract "Sphingomyelin plays a very important role both in cell membrane formation that may well have an impact on the development of diseases like atherosclerosis and diabetes. However, the molecular mechanism that governs intracellular and plasma membrane SM levels is largely unknown. Recently, two isoforms of sphingomyelin synthase (SMS1 and SMS2), the last enzyme for SM de novo synthesis, have been cloned. We have hypothesized that SMS1 and SMS2 are the two most likely candidates responsible for the SM levels in the cells and on the plasma membrane. To test this hypothesis, cultured cells were treated with tricyclodecan-9-yl-xanthogenate (D609), an inhibitor of SMS, or with SMS1 and SMS2 siRNAs. Cells were then pulsed with [14C]-l-serine (a precursor of all sphingolipids). SMS activity and [14C]-SM in the cells were monitored. We found that SMS activity was significantly decreased in cells after D609 or SMS siRNA treatment, compared with controls. SMS inhibition by D609 or SMS siRNAs significantly decreased intracellular [14C]-SM levels. We measured cellular lipid levels, including SM, ceramide, phosphatidylcholine, and diacylglycerol and found that SMS1 and SMS2 siRNA treatment caused a significant decrease of SM levels (20% and 11%, respectively), compared to control siRNA treatment; SMS1 but not SMS2 siRNA treatment caused a significant increase of ceramide levels (10%). There was a decreasing tendency for diacylglycerol levels after both SMS1 and SMS2 siRNA treatment, however, it was not statistical significant. As shown by lipid rafts isolation and lipid determination, SMS1 and SMS2 siRNA treatment led to a decrease of SM content in detergent-resistant lipid rafts on the cell membrane. Furthermore, SMS1 and SMS2 siRNA-treated cells had a stronger resistance than did control siRNA-treated cells to lysenin (a protein that causes cell lysis due to its affinity for plasma membrane SM). These results indicate that both SMS1 and SMS2 contribute to SM de novo synthesis and control SM levels in the cells and on the cell membrane including plasma membrane, implying an important relationship between SMS activity and cell functions." @default.
