Sphingosylphosphorylcholine is an activator of transglutaminase activity in human keratinocytes [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2001 We characterize functional roles of a newly discovered chemical, sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC), in the epidermis by elucidating the biological effect of SPC on human keratinocytes in culture. The intracellular calcium level of human keratinocytes was increased by incubation with SPC, but not with sphingosine (SS) or sphingomyelin (SM). The addition
