Sphingomyelin metabolism is involved in the differentiation of MDCK cells induced by environmental hypertonicity

Sphingolipids (SLs) are relevant lipid components of eukaryotic cells. Besides regulating various cellular processes, SLs provide the structural framework for plasma membrane organization.
