    Product Description

    C2 Adamantanyl Galactosylceramide (d18:1/2:0) (AdaGalCer) is a bioactive sphingolipid.1 It reduces globotriaosylceramide 3 synthesis from exogenous lactosylceramide in microsomes. AdaGalCer stimulates recombinant glucocerebrosidase activity in a pH-dependent manner. It activates glucocerebrosidase to decrease glucosylceramide accumulation in fibroblasts and lymphoblasts isolated from patients with Gaucher and Fabry disease, respectively. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1946]
