White Solid | [Uses]
C20 Ceramide (d18:1/20:0) has been used:
- as a standard to quantify ceramide content in muscle tissue samples using high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS2)
- as a standard for the quantitation of sphingolipid metabolites
- to study its effects on mitochondrial-to-cytosolic stress response (MCSR) induction
| [General Description]
C20 Ceramide (d18:1/20:0) or N-arachidoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine is a synthetic ceramide containing sphingosine with arachidonic acid. Ceramide synthase 2 is responsible for the synthesis of C20 ceramide. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Altered levels of C20 ceramide might function as a potential biomarker for monitoring tumor. |
