Description | C8-Ceramide (N-Octanoyl-D-erythro-sphingosine) is a cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides. C8-Ceramide has anti-proliferation properties and acts as a potent chemotherapeutic agent. C8-Ceramide stimulates dendritic cells to promote T cell responses upon virus infections. C8-Ceramide induces slight activation of protein kinase (PKC) in vitro[1][2][3][4]. |

In Vitro | C8-ceramide (3 μM; 48 hours) irreversibly reduces tumor-cell proliferation and induces morphological changes[1]. C8-ceramide can induce necrosis-like cell death, but does not induce caspase-dependent cleavage of PARP (biochemical marker of apoptosis) in human cervical tumor cells[1]. C8-ceramide may increase the endogenous ROS level (10-30 µM; 24 hours) by regulating the switch of SOD1 and SOD2, causing the anti-proliferation (10-50 µM; 24 hours), and consequently triggering the apoptosis (10-50 µM; 48 hours) of NSCLC H1299 cells[2]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: CALO cells, INBL cells, HeLa cells Concentration: 3 μM Incubation Time: 48 hours Result: Markedly reduced the tumor cell number. Cell Proliferation Assay[2] Cell Line: H1299 cells Concentration: 10 µM, 20 µM, 30 µM, 40 µM, 50 µM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Decreased the rate of cellular proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 22.9 µM. Cell Cycle Analysis[2] Cell Line: H1299 cells Concentration: 10 µM, 20 µM, 30 µM, 40 µM, 50 µM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Caused the G1 arrest. Apoptosis Analysis[2] Cell Line: H1299 cells Concentration: 10 µM, 20 µM, 30 µM Incubation Time: 24 hours, 48 hours Result: Increased the level of cleaved caspase-3. |
In Vivo | C8-ceramide (0.1 mg/kg; intranasal administration) induces more robust CD8+ and CD4+ T cell responses to viral infections in virus infected mice[3]. Animal Model: C57BL/6 mice, with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infected[2] Dosage: 0.1 mg/kg Administration: Intranasal administration Result: Increased the CD8+ T cell response to influenza in the lungs. |
