sphingomyelin

Sphingomyelin is a natural sphingolipid that existed in animal cell membranes. It implicates the regulation of transmembrane signaling.

C16 Sphingomyelin (d18:1 16:0) (N-Palmitoyl-D-sphingomyelin) is a phospholipid analog of phospholipid bilayer membranes, which can be used to study biofilm activity.

Sphingomyelin (chicken egg) (SMs (chicken egg)) is a sphingolipid derived from eggs and is a major component of the plasma membrane.Sphingomyelin (chicken egg) has been implicated in signaling in the body.

Citicoline sodium (CDP-choline) is an endogenous intermediate in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine. It also serves as a choline donor in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Citicoline sodium demonstrates protective effects in cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury, and memory disorders. Exogenous administration of citicoline to rodents (500 mg kg i.p. immediately after ischemia and at 3-h reperfusion) has been shown to stimulate the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin, and cardiolipin and to attenuate the release of arachidonic acid and the accumulation of ceramide.

Fumonisin B1 (Fumonisin-B1) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium oxysporum that is widely present in crops, contaminating them and posing a significant food safety hazard.Fumonisin B1 is structurally a sphingosine and sphingomyelin analog, and inhibits the biosynthesis of complex sphingolipids through the inhibition of ceramidic synthases.

Nervonic acid (Selacholeic acid) is a long chain unsaturated fatty acid that is enriched in sphingomyelin. It consists of choline, sphingosine, phosphoric acid, and fatty acid. Nervonic acid may enhance the brain functions and prevent demyelination (Chemical Land21). Research shows that there is negative relationship between nervonic acid and obesity-related risk factors. Demyelination in adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is associated with an accumulation of very long chain saturated fatty acids stemming from a genetic defect in the peroxisomal beta oxidation system responsible for the chain shortening of these fatty acids. Sphingolipids from post mortem ALD brain have decreased levels of nervonic acid, 24:1(n-9), and increased levels of stearic acid, 18:0.

Sphingosine (d17:1) (C17 Sphingosine) is a 17-carbon sphingolipid found in human skin that can be phosphorylated by sphingomyelin kinase.Sphingosine C-17 can be used as an internal standard to perform spectroscopic analysis of sphingolipids.

Malabaricone C is a bioactive chemical.
