Proinflammatory stress activates neutral sphingomyelinase 2 based generation of a ceramide-enriched β cell EV subpopulation
2024-04-18
Abstract excerpt
β cell extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a role as paracrine effectors in islet health, yet mechanisms connecting β cell stress to changes in EV cargo and potential impacts on diabetes remain poorly defined. We hypothesized that β cell inflammatory stress engages neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2)-dependent EV formation pathways, generating ceramide-enriched EVs that could impact surrounding β cells. Consistent...
