C24:0(2R-OH) Galactosyl(ß) Ceramide (d18:1/24:0)
D-galactosyl-ß-1,1’-N-(2’R-hydroxylignoceroyl)-D-erythro-sphingosine
Galactosylceramides are key components of myelin in the nervous system, where they insulate nerve fibers and support rapid signal transmission. Widely used in neurobiology research, galactosyl(ß) ceramides help study myelin structure and function, including cell signaling pathways involved in neurodegeneration. It is also significant for exploring disease pathogenesis in demyelinating disorders like multiple sclerosis by helping with the development of potential therapeutic approaches. By analyzing its role in myelin stability, researchers can use this compound to find insights into the mechanisms underlying nerve function and neurodegenerative diseases. |
