General description

Glucosyl(β) Ceramide (β-GlcCer) is a naturally occurring glycolipid. It is also a ubiquitous intracellular metabolite.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucosyl(β) Ceramide (β-GlcCer) regulates the activity of natural killer T (NKT) lymphocytes and displays antimetastatic effects. It is an endogenous macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) ligand, which exhibits immunostimulatory property. β-GlcCer promotes inflammatory and acquired immune responses on myeloid cells via Mincle. It acts as a potential biomarker for Gaucher′s disease.
