Description

Colourless to Light Yellow Oil


Solid


N,N-dimethylsphingosine is a sphingoid that is sphingosine in which the two amino hydrogens are replaced by amino groups. It has a role as a metabolite and an EC 2.7.1.91 (sphingosine kinase) inhibitor. It is an aminodiol, a sphingoid and a tertiary amino compound. It derives from a sphingosine.

Dimethylsphingosine Use and Manufacturing

Uses

N,N-Dimethylsphingosine is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase (SPHK). It is a natural metabolite of sphingosine in some cancer cell lines and tissues. N,N-Dimethylsphingosine inhibited U937 cell SPHK with a Ki value of 3.1 μM. N,N-Dimethylsphingosine induces apoptosis, but it is not an inhibitor of protein kinase C.
