Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine isoform CerS6 is specifically upregulated in experimental alcoholic steatosis in vivo and in vitro Homo sapiens
medicine isoform CerS6 is specifically upregulated in experimental alcoholic steatosis in vivo and in vitro. In vivo ceramide reduction by inhibition of de novo ceramide synthesis reduces PLIN2 and hepatic steatosis in alcohol-fed mice, and improves glucose homeostasis in control and Etoh mice, but only de novo synthesis inhibition. Inhibition of ceramide synthesis during alcohol feeding has minimal effect on body composition, food intake, and energy expenditure Mus musculus
