C14-Dihydroceramide

Description:
C14-Dihydroceramide is a sphingolipid, a type of lipid that plays a crucial role in cellular structure and signaling. It is characterized by a long-chain fatty acid backbone, specifically with a 14-carbon chain length, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This compound features a sphingoid base with two hydroxyl groups and an amine group, making it a dihydro derivative of ceramide. C14-Dihydroceramide is involved in various biological processes, including cell membrane structure, signaling pathways, and apoptosis. Its hydrophobic nature allows it to integrate into lipid bilayers, influencing membrane fluidity and permeability. Additionally, it serves as a precursor for more complex sphingolipids and can be involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. The CAS number 61389-70-6 uniquely identifies this substance in chemical databases, facilitating its study and application in research and industry. Overall, C14-Dihydroceramide is significant in biochemistry and cell biology, particularly in the context of lipid metabolism and cellular function.
