C8-Ceramide
Ceramides Analog
C8-Ceramide (N-Octanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine) is a ceramide analog known for its cell permeability and anti-proliferative properties. This compound serves as a promising chemotherapeutic agent and has been shown to stimulate dendritic cells, enhancing T cell responses during viral infections. Additionally, C8-Ceramide induces a moderate activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in vitro, making it a valuable tool for research in immunology and cancer therapeutics.
