 Use of N-(2'-(S)-hydroxyarachidoyl)-D-erythro sphingosine


Hydroxy fatty acid (hFA)-sphingolipids help in formation and function of myelin. In addition, they also play a vital role in cell signaling, cell differentiation and apoptosis. In epidermis, hFA-ceramides aid in permeability barrier function. NAD(P)H-dependent enzyme, fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) catalyzes the synthesis of hFA-ceramides. FA2H gene mutation leads to the development of neurological disorders such as leukodystrophy and spastic paraparesis in humans. hFA-ceramides help PM02734 (elisidepsin), an antitumor drug to exhibit its activity.
