C8 CERAMIDE Structural

What is C8 CERAMIDE?

Description

C8-ceramide (74713-59-0) is a cell permeable ceramide analog. Stimulates ceramide-activated protein kinase.1?Induces apoptosis.2?Reported to inhibit apoptosis and gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) in rat liver epithelial cells.3?C8-ceramide induces the secretion of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) from microglia?in vitro.4

Chemical properties

Off White Powder

The Uses of C8 CERAMIDE

A biologically active, cell permeable, but nonphysiologic ceramide analog. It induces phosphorylation on Thr-669 in A-431 cells by stimulation of ceramide-activated protein kinase. It stimulates IL-2 secretion and induces apoptosis
