초록

A cytosolic. neutral and magnesium-independent Sphingomyelinase (N-cSMase) is known to playa role in vitamin D3-induced differentiation and neurodegeneration such as Alzheimer's disease and stroke through the production of ceramide. a lipid-derived tumor suppressive mediator. However. little is known about its identity and characteristics. (omitted)
