The nutritional functions of dietary sphingomyelin and its applications in food

Abstract: Sphingolipids are common structural components of cell membranes and are crucial for cell functions in physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Sphingomyelin and its metabolites, such as sphingoid bases, ceramide, ceramide-1-phosphate, and sphingosine-1-phosphate, play signaling roles in the regulation of human health. The diverse structures of sphingolipids elicit various functions in cellular membranes and signal transduction, which may affect cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and maintain bio… Show more

“…SM, an amphipathic sphingolipid, 160 mainly exists in animal-derived phospholipids. 161 It can increase the abundance of Bifidobacterium and Firmicutes and reduce Bacteroides , 162,163 which is beneficial for inhibiting the absorption of lipid and LPS diffusion, 164,165 relieving intestinal inflammation, maintaining intestinal microbiota homeostasis and improving the intestinal barrier. 166 PE and PC are important components of the intestinal epithelium.…”

“…However, animal-based foods such as milk, dairy products, and eggs are major sources of dietary SM due to their availability and relative low cost. ( 15 ) The SM concentrations in milk vary among species and stages of lactation. There is a lower amount of SM and Cer in infant formulas and commercial milks for adults than in human breast milk.…”

“…In particular, long-chain C16- and C18-ceramides were found to exacerbate the ER stress and trigger apoptosis . Conversely, SM has been widely accepted in clinical and dietary settings based on its biocompatibility as a basic component of cell membranes . For example, SM-based liposomes were proven to be an effective carrier for anticancer drugs, and to be used as decoy targets to sequester bacteria exotoxins that damage cell membranes for the treatment of severe pneumonia .…”
