Impact of Intracellular Glutathione Depletion on Neutral Sphingomyelinase in Human Hepatoma HepG2 cells by Tanios, Marie

“…Results: Our findings demonstrated that GSH synthesis inhibition using BSO decreases nSMase activity in HepG2 and was not accompanied by ceramide generation. In addition, results show that nSMase 1 and 3 expressions were upregulated, while nSMase 2 was not expressed in HepG2 cells. …”
