C6 L-erythro Ceramide (d18:1/6:0)
C6 L-erythro Ceramide is a cell-permeable, synthetic analog of natural ceramides used to study sphingolipid metabolism and signaling. It is metabolized to glucosylceramide and exhibits cytotoxic effects in vitro, such as in U937 monocytic cells with an IC50 of 18 μM, making it a tool for apoptosis and cancer research.
