Levels of ceramide species in cultured primary myoblasts from wild-type and VCPR155H/R155H mice

Ceramide Mean ± SEM (nmol/mg protein)
WT HZ
(d18:1/16:0) 2.34 ± 0.30 30.82 ± 4.86***
(d18:1/18:0) 0.10 ± 0.01 0.92 ± 0.16***
(d18:1/24:1) 0.96 ± 0.11 6.36 ± 1.24***
(d18:1/24:0) 0.87 ± 0.13 3.69 ± 0.59***

Levels of cellular ceramide were quantified from primary myoblasts in culture. Cells from the WT (at passage 8 in vitro) and VCPR155H/R155H (HZ, at passage 7) mice were cultured and scraped into methanol. The lipids were extracted with chloroform and the levels of various ceramide species were determined by using LC–MS/MS (n = 5–6). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. ***P < 0.001 by two-tailed t-test.
