Sphingolipids as Mediators in the Crosstalk between Microbiota and Intestinal Cells: Implications for Inflammatory Bowel Disease

<div>(a) Structure of the main bioactive sphingolipids: sphingosine (Sph), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), ceramide (Cer), ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P), sphingomyelin (SM), and glucosylceramide (GluCer). (b) Schematic representation of the central role of ceramide in sphingolipid metabolism.</div>
