General description
Ceramides containing 2-hydroxy fatty acids (hFA) are present in the surface epithelium of the skin. 24:0(2S-OH) Ceramide is a unique ceramide containing 24C long chain base fatty acid (lignoceric acid)-with 2′-hydroxyl group in S configuration. NAD(P)H-dependent enzyme, fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) catalyzes the synthesis of hFA-ceramide. Ceramides containing hFA in epidermis help in permeability barrier function.

Unique species of ceramide (Cer) with very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (VLCPUFA), mainly 28-32 carbon atoms, 4-5 double bonds, in nonhydroxy and 2-hydroxy forms (n-V Cer and h-V Cer, respectively), are generated in rat spermatozoa from the corresponding sphingomyelins during the

Sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of eukaryotic cells that regulate various cellular functions. In many cell types, a fraction of sphingolipids contain 2-hydroxy fatty acids, produced by fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H), as the N-acyl chain of ceramide [hydroxyl fatty acid (hFA)-sphingolipids].
