General description

Ceramides are heterogeneous lipid molecules, prominent in the lamellar sheets of stratum corneum. They belong to the group of sphingolipids.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The polymer size and acyl chain length of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) conjugated ceramides are known to influence the transfection potency of stabilized plasmid-lipid particle (SPLP) and its formation.
