Notes: C14 Ceramide is an endogenous ceramide generated by ceramide synthase 6.{35051} During nutrient-deprivation-induced necroptosis in MEF cells, C14 ceramide levels increase in a time-dependent manner.{35053} C14 ceramide plasma levels were reduced in obese patients with or without diabetes following a 12-week supervised exercise training program, correlating positively with weight and fat loss and negatively with an increase in insulin sensitivity.{35052} In contrast, plasma levels were higher in Parkinson’s disease patients with dementia than those without dementia and higher levels were correlated with deficits in memory.{35054}
