General description

C24 Ceramide (d17:1/24:0) is a synthetic ceramide derived from a C17 sphingosine with lignoceric acid. Ceramide synthase 2 is responsible for the synthesis of C24 ceramide.

Application

C24 Ceramide (d17:1/24:0) has been used as an internal standard to quantify ceramide content in both subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue by ultraperformance liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometery (UPLC-MS/MS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

C24 Ceramide (d17:1/24:0) plays a vital role in inducing cell death. Altered levels of C24 Ceramide might be a potential indication in tumor monitoring.
