Lysosphingomyelin is an endogenous bioactive sphingolipid and a constituent of lipoproteins.1,2It is produced by the removal of the acyl group from sphingomyelin by a deacylase and acts as a precursor in the biosynthesis of sphingosine-1-phosphate . D-erythroLysosphingomyelin is an agonist of the S1P receptors S1P1, S1P2, and S1P3(EC50s = 167.7, 368.1, and 482.6 nM, respectively, for the human receptors).3It is also an agonist of the orphan receptor ovarian cancer G protein-coupled receptor 1 (ORG1) that induces calcium accumulation in cells overexpressing OGR1 (EC50= ~35 nM).4Levels of D-erythrolysosphingomyelin are increased in skin isolated from patients with atopic dermatitis, as well as postmortem brain from patients with Niemann-Pick disease type A, but not type B.2,5L-threolysosphingomyelin is also an S1P1-3agonist (EC50s = 19.3, 131.8, and 313.3 nM, respectively).3This product is a mixture of D-erythroand L-threolysosphingomyelin.

D-threo Sphinganine (d18:0) is a synthetic bioactive sphingolipid and stereoisomer of sphinganine (d18:0) and L-erythro sphinganine (d18:0) . It induces autophagy in HCT116 cells when used at a concentration of 12 μM. D-threo Sphinganine (d18:0) is metabolized via sphinganine N-acyltransferase and sphinganine kinase in vivo in rat liver.

L-threo-PPMP is an inhibitor of GlcT, which is the UDP-Glc: Ceramide β1,1glucosyltransferase enzyme. It effectively inhibits glycosphingolipid biosynthesis, while also inducing apoptosis. These properties of L-threo-PPMP contribute to its notable anti-cancer activity.

D-threo-PDMP is a potent inhibitor of glucoceramide synthase (GCS), effectively reducing cell surface glycosphingolipids by inhibiting glycosylation. It also decreases the axon plexus's total length and the number of axon branch points, ultimately inhibiting neurite growth.

C6 D-threo Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides., C6 D-threo Ceramide is cytotoxic to U937 cells in vitro (IC50 = 18 μM). It is metabolically inactive and, unlike C6 L-erythro ceramide , C6 D-threo ceramide cannot be converted to C6 glucosylceramide by ceramide glucosyltransferase. C6 D-threo Ceramide promotes survival of isolated rat spinal neurons when used at concentrations up to 2.5 μM but induces cell death at concentrations greater than 5 μM. It enhances IL-4 production induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate in EL4 T cells when used at a concentration of 10 μM.

C8 D-threo Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides.

It activates ceramide-activated protein kinase (CAPK) in U937 cells. C8 D-threo Ceramide also enhances V. cholerae cytolysin pore formation in liposome lipid membranes, as measured by calcein release, with a 50% release dose (RD50) value of ~5 μg/ml.
