Small Molecule Neutral Sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) Inhibitors

Unmet NeedNeutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) is expressed in neurons and hydrolyzes sphingomyelin, producing the lipid ceramide, which functions in stress responses leading to apoptosis, cell growth arrest, and differentiation. Increased levels of ceramides have been associated with many neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, multiple...
