Product Description: C18-Ceramide (Standard) is the analytical standard of C18-Ceramide. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. C18-Ceramide can promote exocytosis of glutamate from damaged neurons. C18-Ceramide promotes cell death in glioma cells. Ceramides is involved in diverse cellular functions, such as differentiation, cell cycle progression, cell-cell adhesion, senescence, and apoptosis[1].
Formula: C36H71NO3
