    Product Description

    ARN14974 is a benzoxazolone carboxamide inhibitor of acid ceramidase (IC50 = 79 nM).1 It inhibits acid ceramidase activity, reduces levels of sphingosine and dihydroceramide, and increases levels of ceramide in SW403 adenocarcinoma cells and RAW 264.7 murine macrophages when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 20 mM. In vivo, ARN14974 (10 mg/kg, i.v.) reduces acid ceramidase activity in multiple organs, including brain, liver, heart, lungs, and kidney, and increases pulmonary ceramide levels in mice.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
