Unravelling neuronal and glial differences in ceramide composition, synthesis, and sensitivity to toxicity

John J. McInnis, Disha Sood, Lilu Guo, Michael R. Dufault, Mariana Gabriela García, Rachel Passaro, Grace Gao, Bailin Zhang, James C. Dodge

The paper shows human iPSC-derived neurons and glia differ in ceramide synthesis, composition, and toxicity sensitivity, linking these differences to inflammation, ER stress, and apoptosis.
