ceramide

A potent modulator of cell proliferation and differentiation.

C18 dihydro Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and precursor in the de novo synthesis of C18 ceramide that lacks the 4,5-trans double bond. [1] Increased C18 dihydroceramide lipid levels lead to increased triacylglycerol storage and autophagosome accumulation as well as upregulation of the fibrosis markers α-SMA and FGF2 in Chang and LX-2 liver cells. C18 dihydro Ceramide is elevated in the plasma of pre-diabetics up to 9 years prior to the onset of type 2 diabetes. [2] It is also elevated in the skin of patients with lesional atopic dermatitis.[3]

C18:1 Ceramide (d18:1/18:1(9Z)) is a ceramide, and C18:1-Ceramide levels are elevated in overweight and insulin-resistant mice and cattle, as well as in plasma and ovarian tissue of patients with advanced ovarian cancer.

C24 dihydro Ceramide is a sphingolipid that has been found in the stratum corneum of human skin.[1] It is found in higher concentrations in female sebum compared to male sebum.[2] C24 dihydro Ceramide levels positively correlate with cytotoxicity in CCRF-CEM, MOLT-4, COG-LL-317h, and COG-LL-332h T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cell lines.[4] Levels of C24 dihydro ceramide are increased by 149.49-fold in dihydroceramide desaturase 1 (DEGS1) knockdown UM-SCC-22A human head and neck squamous carcinoma cells in vitro.[4] C24 dihydro Ceramide levels are also increased in INS-1 β-cells incubated with glucose and palmitate.[5]

C2 Ceramide (d14:1/2:0) is a bioactive sphingolipid that, when administered dietarily at 100 μM, induces lipotoxic cardiomyopathy by increasing diastolic and systolic diameter, reducing fractional shortening, and decreasing the number of normal cardiac contractile events in Drosophila.

C6 L-threo Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides. It is cytotoxic to U937 cells in vitro (IC50 = 18 μM), metabolically inactive, and unlike C6 L-erythro ceramide, it cannot be converted to C6 glucosylceramide by ceramide glucosyltransferase. C6 L-threo Ceramide enhances IL-4 production induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate in EL4 T cells at 10 μM.

C12-Ceramide (C12 Ceramide (d18:1/12:0)), a ceramide present in the protective membranes surrounding umbilical cord blood vessels in infants born to women with pre-eclampsia, can be used to assess the level of ASM activity in the plasma of patients with Niemann-Pick disease.

C18 L-erythro Ceramide (d18:1/18:0) significantly reduced extracellular Aβ levels and can be used to study Alzheimer's disease.

C16-Urea-Ceramide s a neutral ceramidase (nCDase) inhibitor. It is a bioactive ceramide.

C18 Ceramide-1-phosphate (d18:1/18:0) is a long-chain molecule identified in murine skin, promoting the migration of mouse bone marrow-derived multipotent stromal cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) at concentrations of 0.5 to 5 µM. It exhibits elevated levels in CFPAC-1 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells compared to pancreatic cancer stem cells, and its myocardial concentration is heightened in Langendorff isolated perfused mouse hearts under an ex vivo ischemia model.
