| | C24-Ceramide Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Production of ceramide occurs upon hydrolysis of sphingomyelin by a specific isoform of PLC, appropriately named sphingomyelinase. C24 Ceramide (d18:1/24:0) is one of the most abundant naturally occurring ceramides. Ceramides mediate many diverse biological activities, as has been demonstrated in studies utilizing cell-permeable ceramide analogs. A few of the processes regulated by ceramides include apoptosis, cell differentiation, proliferation of smooth muscle cells, and inhibition of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. | | Chemical Properties | Crystalline Solid | | Uses | Production of ceramide occurs upon hydrolysis of sphingomyelin by a specific isoform of phospholipase C, appropriately named sphingomyelinase. | | Definition | ChEBI: N-tetracosanoylsphingosine is a N-acylsphingosine in which the ceramide N-acyl group is specified as tetracosanoyl. It has a role as a mouse metabolite. It is a N-acylsphingosine, a Cer(d42:1) and a N-(very-long-chain fatty acyl)-sphingoid base. It is functionally related to a tetracosanoic acid. | | References | [1] MING GU . Ceramide Profiling of Complex Lipid Mixtures by Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry[J].
