Ceramide synthase 4 overexpression exerts oncogenic properties in breast cancer

Abstract Background Ceramide, a bioactive signaling sphingolipid, has long been implicated in cancer. Members of the ceramide synthase (CerS) family determine the acyl chain lengths of ceramides, with ceramide synthase 4 (CerS4) primarily generating C18–C20-ceramide. Although CerS4 is known to be ov...
