General description

Ceramides containing 2-hydroxy fatty acids (hFA) are mainly found in the epidermis. 24:1(2R-OH) Ceramide is a 2R hydroxylated nervonic acid-containing sphingolipid.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hydroxy fatty acid (hFA)-sphingolipids play a vital role in cell signaling, cell differentiation and apoptosis. These lipids also aid in formation and function of myelin. hFA-ceramide is produced by NAD(P)H-dependent enzyme, fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H). hFA-ceramides help in epidermal permeability barrier function.
