C2 Ceramide (d14:1/2:0)
C2 Ceramide (d14:1/2:0) is a cell-permeable sphingolipid used to study ceramide-mediated lipotoxicity. In Drosophila research, dietary administration at 100 μM has been shown to model lipotoxic cardiomyopathy, inducing cardiac dilation and impairing contractile function. This compound is a valuable tool for investigating sphingolipid signaling in metabolic and cardiovascular disease models.
