Sphingosine-13C2-d2 (d18:1) is intended for use as an analytical standard for the quantification of sphingosine (d18:1) by GC- or LC-MS. Sphingosine (d18:1) is formed primarily from the breakdown of ceramide.1 Sphingosine (d18:1) inhibits protein kinase C and phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase, whereas it activates phospholipase D and diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase.1 Phosphorylation of sphingosine (d18:1) by sphingosine kinases 1 and 2 (SPHK1, SPHK2) produces sphingosine-1-phosphate, a potent bioactive lipid that exhibits a broad spectrum of biological activities including cell proliferation, survival, migration, cytoskeletal organization, and morphogenesis.2,3,4 | [Uses]
D-erythro-Sphingosine-13C2,d2 is a deuterated labeled D-erythro-Sphingosine[1]. D-erythro-Sphingosine (Erythrosphingosine) is a very potent activator of p32-kinase with an EC50 of 8 μM, and inhibits protein kinase C (PKC). D-erythro-Sphingosine (Erythrosphingosine) is also a PP2A activator[2][3][4][5]. | [References]
