General description

Ceramides comprise spingolipids with acyl chains of C14 to C24 saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. They are present in most of the mammalian tissues.

Application

C24:1 Ceramide (d18:1/24:1(15Z)) has been used as an internal stand in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer. It is also suitable for use as a standard in high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ceramide (d18:1/24:1[15Z]) levels are elevated inprimary open angle glaucoma (POAG). It is a biomarker for the human arterial tissue and plasma major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACE). In general, ceramides are key second messengers in sphingomyelin pathway and modulate the pathophysiology of metabolic diseases.
