Sphingoid Base Standards

D-erythro-Sphingosine (Standard) is the analytical standard of D-erythro-Sphingosine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. D-erythro-Sphingosine (Erythrosphingosine) is a very potent activator of p32-kinase with an EC50 of 8 μM, and inhibits protein kinase C (PKC). D-erythro-Sphingosine (Erythrosphingosine) is also a PP2A activator[1][2][3][4].

Phytosphingosine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Phytosphingosine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Phytosphingosine is a phospholipid with anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-cancer activities, which can induce apoptosis. Phytosphingosine is an immune regulator and can be used in the study of inflammatory skin diseases. Phytosphingosine is also an activator of GPR120 with an IC50 value of 33.4 μM and can be used in the study of type II diabetes[1][2][3][4].

Myriocin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Myriocin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Myriocin (Thermozymocidin), a fungal metabolite could be isolated from Myriococcum albomyces, Isaria sinclairi and Mycelia sterilia, is a potent inhibitor of serine-palmitoyl-transferase (SPT) and a key enzyme in de novo synthesis of sphingolipids. Myriocin suppresses replication of both the subgenomic HCV-1b replicon and the JFH-1 strain of genotype 2a infectious HCV, with an IC50 of 3.5 μg/mL for inhibiting HCV infection[1][2][3].

Fumonisin B3 (Standard) is the analytical standard of Fumonisin B3. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Fumonisin B3 is an orally active fumonisin Mycotoxin. Fumonisin B3 can be isolated from Fusarium moniliforme, Fusarium proliferatum and Fusarium nygamai. Fumonisin B3 induces precancerous lesions, triggers embryonic death of chicken embryos, causes severe hemorrhage in dead chicken embryos. Fumonisin B3 can be used in studies related to hepatocellular carcinoma.

D-Erythro-dihydrosphingosin directly inhibits cytosolic phospholipase A2α (cPLA2α) activity.
