| Scientific Background | N,N-Dimethylsphingosine is a specific inhibitor of sphingosine kinase, an enzyme involved in the production of sphingosine-1-phosphate, a key signaling lipid. In neuroscience, it is used to study the regulation of apoptosis, inflammation, and neurodegeneration through sphingolipid signaling pathways. Its ability to induce apoptosis without affecting protein kinase C makes it a selective tool for dissecting lipid-mediated neuronal processes. |
