Application

C18 Glucosyl(β) Ceramide (d18:1/18:0) or D-glucosyl-β-1,1′-N-stearoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine has been used:
  • as a lipid standard for its quantification using differential ion mobility spectrometry (DMS) coupled with liquid chromatography in electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-DMS-MS/MS) in human plasma
  • in the preparation of lipid dispersions
  • used in an assay to monitor the turnover of glucosylceramide in glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) cell free system

Neurotransmitter release is mediated by ceramide, which is generated by sphingomyelin hydrolysis. In the present study, we examined whether synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP-25) is involved in ceramide production and exocytosis. Neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) was partially purified from bovine brain

Parkinson's disease (PD), an adult neurodegenerative disorder, has been clinically linked to the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (GD), but the mechanistic connection is not known. Here, we show that functional loss of GD-linked glucocerebrosidase (GCase) in primary cultures or

Cerebrosides, including glucosylceramides (GlcCers) and galactosylceramides (GalCers), are important membrane components of animal cells with deficiencies resulting in devastating lysosomal storage disorders. Their quantification is essential for disease diagnosis and a better understanding of disease mechanisms. The simultaneous quantification of

Mutations in glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) cause Gaucher disease and also represent a common risk factor for Parkinson's disease and Dementia with Lewy bodies. Recently, new tool molecules were described which can increase turnover of an artificial substrate 4MUG when incubated with
