Beschreibung

Sphinganine is a fatty acid that belongs to the group of amides. It is a non-polar lipophilic compound that has been detected in human blood, liver, and kidney tissues. Sphinganine is formed by the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin, which is a phospholipid found in most mammalian cells. The presence of sphinganine has been linked to cancerous tumors and also to high levels of triglycerides in the blood. Sphinganine can be an analog for other compounds such as fatty acids or amino acids, which can be used for diagnostic purposes.
