Dihydroceramide desaturase catalyzes the conversion of the innocuous precursor dihydroceramide into a highly bioactive product ceramide. We studied the effect of N-[(1R,2S)-2-hydroxy-1-hydroxymethyl-2-(2-tridecyl-1-cyclopropenyl)ethyl]octanamide (GT11), the first inhibitor of this enzyme, in primary cultured cerebellar neurons. Although desaturase was efficiently inhibited (IC50
