In Vitro Use Guide
Treatment of HL-60 ells with D-erythro-C2-ceramide (1-5 uM) for 2 days resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of cell growth. Its enantiomer, L-erythro-C2-ceramide, was equally potent. The diastereomer, L-threo-C2ceramide, was more potent than D-erythro-C2-ceramide whereas D-threo-C2-ceramide (D-threo-sphingosine) was less potent. The IC50 for these compounds ranged be-ween 2.5 and 4.5 uM.
