C4 Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides.{13011,48234,48235} It inhibits IL-4 production by 16% in EL4 T cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; Item No. 10008014) when used at a concentration of 10 μM.{13011} C4 Ceramide is cytotoxic to SK-BR-3 and MCF-7/Adr breast cancer cells (IC50s = 15.9 and 19.9 μM, respectively).{48234} C4 Ceramide also increases maturation and stability of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) proteins bearing the F508 deletion (F508del) mutation, enhances cAMP-activated chloride secretion, and suppresses secretion of IL-8 in primary epithelial cells isolated from patients with cystic fibrosis.{48235}
