Bioactivity | N-Oleoyl serinol is a ceramide analog that can be used in stem cell therapy to prevent stem cells from developing into teratomas. N-Oleoyl serinol induces apoptosis in residual pluripotent embryoid body-derived cells (EBCs), prevents teratoma formation, and enriches EBC cells that undergo neural differentiation after transplantation[1]. |
