Product Data
Biological target:
P053 is a potent, non-competitive and selective ceramide synthase 1 (CerS1) inhibitor wirh an IC50 of 0.5 μM.
In vitro activity:
In a live-cell ceramide synthase assay using cortical neuron cultures, a two hour pre-treatment with P053 resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of de novo C18:0 ceramide synthesis from deuterated dihydrosphingosine (Fig. 2a), confirming that the drug is cell permeable and inhibits CerS1 activity in living cells. Reference: Nat Commun. 2018 Aug 21;9(1):3165. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30131496/
In vivo activity:
As C18 is the dominant ceramide in SkM, P053 treatment reduced total ceramide content in this organ (Fig. 3f; P = 0.73 for effect of diet, P < 0.001 for effect of P053 by 2-way ANOVA). Very long chain ceramides (C22:0, C24:0 and C24:1) were significantly increased by P053 treatment in the HFD group (Fig. 3d, e), as was 42:2 SM, which is assumed to be the 18:1/24:1 (C24:1) form (Fig. 3g). Mean levels of 36:1 SM, which is derived from C18:0 ceramide, were 13% lower in P053-treated compared to vehicle-treated mice on both diets (Fig. 3g), however this effect was not statistically significant.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
