General description

Ceramide 1-phosphate (C1P) is a sphingolipid analog of phosphatidate.

Application

C24 Ceramide-1-Phosphate (d18:1/24:0) or N-lignoceroyl-ceramide-1-phosphate (ammonium salt) has been used as a standard to quantify ceramide content in muscle tissue samples using high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS2).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ceramide 1-phosphate (C1P) is a mitogenic agent, which has antiapoptotic and prosurvival activities. It negatively regulates tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) production stimulated by lipopolysaccharide. C1P also mediates inflammatory response and aids in phagocytosis. It is considered as a second lipid messenger of agonist-stimulated sphingomyelin metabolism.

LPS is a constituent of cell walls of Gram-negative bacteria that, acting through the CD14/TLR4 receptor complex, causes strong proinflammatory activation of macrophages. In murine peritoneal macrophages and J774 cells, LPS at 1-2 ng/ml induced maximal TNF-α and MIP-2 release

Sphingolipids are essential components of cell membranes, and many of them regulate vital cell functions. In particular, ceramide plays crucial roles in cell signaling processes. Two major actions of ceramides are the promotion of cell cycle arrest and the induction

It was reported previously that ceramide-1-phosphate (Cer-1-P) is mitogenic for fibroblasts (Gómez-Muñoz, A., P. A. Duffy, A. Martin, L. O'Brien, H-S. Byun, R. Bittman, and D. N. Brindley. 1995. Mol. Pharmacol. 47: 883-889; Gómez-Muñoz, A., L. M. Frago, L. Alvarez

Ceramide, a product of agonist-stimulated sphingomyelinase activation, is known to be generated during the phagocytosis of antibody-coated erythrocytes by polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Agonist-stimulated formation of ceramide-1-phosphate is now shown to occur in 32PO4-labeled neutrophils. Ceramide-1-phosphate is formed by a calcium-dependent ceramide

Ceramide and ceramide-1-phosphate are sphingolipid analogues of diacylglycerol and phosphatidate, respectively, and they are putative second messengers of agonist-stimulated sphingomyelin metabolism. The interactions of exogenous cell-permeable ceramides and ceramide-1-phosphates in modifying DNA synthesis and signal transduction were investigated in Rat-1
