C20-Dihydrosphingomyelin
C20-Dihydrosphingomyelin (C20-DHSM; DHSM (d18:0/20:0) ) is a saturated form of Sphingomyelin. C20-Dihydrosphingomyelin is a secondary component of most cell sphingolipids and its levels significantly decrease after intermittent fasting during Ramadan. C20-Dihydrosphingomyelin can be used for the development of liposome reagents[1][2][3].
