Mitochondrially targeted ceramides preferentially promote autophagy, retard cell growth, and induce apoptosis
C6-pyridinium (d-erythro-2-N-[6′-(1′′-pyridinium)-hexanoyl]sphingosine bromide [LCL29]) is a cationic mitochondrion-targeting ceramide analog that promotes mitochondrial permeabilization and cancer cell death. In this study, we compared the biological effects of that compound with those of d-erythro...
