Abstract excerpt
Certain mammalian growth modulators, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1beta, and gamma-interferon, induce an antiproliferative response-terminal differentiation, apoptosis, or cell cycle arrest-through a novel signal transduction pathway mediated by the lipid ceramide as a second messenger. Both a ceramide-activated protein phosphatase and a ceramide-activated protein kinase have been implicated...
