C16 Ceramide (d18:1(14Z)/16:0)
C16 Ceramide (Cer) (d18:1(14Z)/16:0) is a sphingosine ceramide composed of long-chain sphingosine (d18:1) and palmitic acid (C16:0). It is one of the key lipid signaling molecules involved in apoptosis signaling. C16 ceramides are particularly involved in cell cycle arrest, cell death, and insulin signaling inhibition.
