Ceramide is a group of sphingolipids that are found in the outermost layer of cells. Ceramides have been shown to be important for maintaining cell structure and function, as well as regulating cellular processes such as apoptosis, insulin resistance, and inflammation. A ceramide profile can be used to identify an individual's risk for developing certain conditions such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, or cancer. In addition to its role in cell biology, ceramide has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity in animals by increasing glucose uptake in adipocytes. Ceramides are also produced by the body from other lipids such as cholesterol or fatty acids. They are found in various tissues and organs including the brain, skin, lungs, and gut.
