Notes: C24 (2’(R)-hydroxy) Phytoceramide is a naturally occurring sphingolipid that has been found in adlay seed hull.{48601} It inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 macrophages (IC50 = 19 μg/ml), as well as increases in COX-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) levels. It increases production of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8 (CXCL8), CXCL1, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2), and CCL20 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in a concentration-dependent manner.{48602} C24 (2’(R)-hydroxy) Phytoceramide is a hydroxylated form of C24 phytoceramide (Item No. 22827).
