What is Synthesis and Evaluation of a Difluoromethylene Analogue of Sphingomyelin as an Inhibitor of Sphingomyelinase about?

A sphingomyelin analogue 2, in which the long alkenyl chain and the phosphodiester moiety of sphingomyelin were replaced by a phenyl and an isosteric difluoromethylenephosphonic acid, was prepared to evaluate its inhibitory potency to sphingomyelinase. The analogue non-competitively inhibited the neutral sphingomyelinase in bovine brain microsomes with an IC 50 of 400 mM. The compound had the ability to suppress tumor necrosis factor a-induced apoptosis of PC-12 neurons at a low concentration of 0.1 mM.

Who reads Synthesis and Evaluation of a Difluoromethylene Analogue of Sphingomyelin as an Inhibitor of Sphingomyelinase?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology.
