| Uses | C18-Ceramide-d3 is the deuterium labeled C18-Ceramide[1]. | | Biological Activity | C18 Ceramide-d3 (d18:1/18:0) is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of C18 Ceramide (d18:1/18:0) by GC- or LC-MS. C18 Ceramide is an endogenous bioactive sphingolipid. It is the primary short-chain ceramide found in brain tissue whose synthesis is regulated by longevity-assurance homologue 1 (Lass1) in mice.1 Increased expression of C18 ceramide reduces cell growth in UM-SCC-22A squamous cell carcinoma cells.2 It is selectively downregulated in 32 human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma tumor tissues as compared to non-squamous tumor tissues. C18 Ceramide concentration is significantly higher in muscle tissue of type 2 diabetic patients compared with non-diabetic patients and is positively correlated to body mass index and inversely related to insulin sensitivity.3 [Matreya, LLC.
