D-threo-1-Phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol HCl

Uses

D-threo-PDMP is a potent glucoceramide synthase (GCS) inhibitor, which reduces the glycosphingolipids on the cell surface by inhibiting glycosylation, reduces the total length of the axon plexus and the number of axon branch points, and inhibits neurite growth[1][2].
