Glucocerebrosides are formed by the tethering of glucose to a ceramide by glucosylceramide synthase.{41133} They are present in neuronal and non-neuronal mammalian tissues and are found at low quantities in a large number of plant species, where they comprise 5-30% of total lipids in the plant plasma membrane, and in fungi.{41133,41134,59454} Glucocerebroside levels decrease during cold acclimatization in plants and glucocerebrosides in fungi are involved in the regulation of virulence and act as elicitors in plants, stimulating plant defense mechanisms.{59454,59455} Glucocerebrosides are precursors in the synthesis of lactosylceramides and gangliosides. Increased levels of glucocerebrosides are associated with obesity-induced insulin resistance in mice and with neuronal deficits observed in neuronopathic Gaucher disease.{41133,41135} This product is a mixture of glucocerebrosides, with variable ceramide chain lengths, isolated from soy.

    The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells.
