General description

A synthetic analog of ceramide. Shown to selectively inhibit alkaline ceraminidase both in vitro and in HL-60 cells (IC50 = 1-5 µM for alkaline ceramides versus IC50 >500 µM for acid ceraminidase). This inhibition results in and over 3-fold increase in endogenous ceramide in treated cells due to a lack of breakdown of ceramide to sphingosine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cell permeable: yes
Primary Target
Alkaline ceramidase
Product does not compete with ATP.
Reversible: no
Target IC50: 1-5 µM for alkaline ceramidase versus >500 µM for acid ceramidase

Preparation Note

Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 1 month at -20°C.
