H2O2 | reactive oxygen species, e.g. hydrogen peroxide, specifically activate neutral sphingomyelinase 2 to generate ceramide and induce apoptosis in airway epithelial cells, overview | Homo sapiens | |
ONOO- | peroxynitrite specifically activates the acidic sphingomyelinase | Homo sapiens |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |

additional information | siRNA knockdown of both nSMase2 and aSMase, silencing nSMase2 prevents H2O2-induced apoptosis, but has no effect on ONOO--induced apoptosis, while silencing of aSMase markedly impairs ONOO--induced apoptosis, but does not affect H2O2-induced apoptosis | Homo sapiens |
