Application

D-threo-1-phenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (D-threo-PPMP) has been used as an internal standard for the generation of standard curve in high performance liquid chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

D-threo-PPMP, also known as 1R,2R-(+)-1-phenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-N-morpholine-1-propanol, is a bioactive sphingolipid. It plays a vital role in regulation of ceramide metabolism. D-threo-PPMP influences cytokinesis failure and glycosylation by inhibiting glucosyl ceramide synthase (GCS). D-threo-PPMP also stops acylation reaction by inhibiting the activity of 1-O-acylceramide synthase (1-O-ACS).

We previously reported that N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR, fenretinide) treatment caused large increases of ceramide levels in neuroblastoma cell lines and induced cell death by a combination of apoptosis and necrosis through p53 (also known as TP53)-independent and caspase-independent pathways. Our goal

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed to measure levels of d-threo-1-phenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (d-threo-PPMP) in mouse plasma and liver. d-threo-PPMP was measured by HPLC with a Luna Pheny-Hexyl column (5 microm, 250 mm x 4.6 mm) employing UV detection at

Sphingolipids are abundant constituents of neuronal membranes and have been implicated in intracellular signaling. We show that two analogs of glycosphingolipid biosynthetic intermediates, fumonisin B1 (which inhibits dihydroceramide synthesis) and DL-1-phenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (PPMP) (which inhibits glucosylceramide synthesis) decrease glycosphingolipid synthesis in

The retinoid, N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide (4-HPR), mediates p53-independent cytotoxicity and can increase reactive oxygen species and ceramide in solid tumor cell lines. We determined changes in ceramide and cytotoxicity upon treatment with 4-HPR (3-12 microM) in six human acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)

Although cells undergo dramatic shape changes during cytokinesis, the role of the plasma membrane and lipids is poorly understood. We report that inactivation of glucosyl ceramide synthase (GCS), either by RNAi or with the small molecule PPMP, causes failure of
