Lysophospholipid Receptors and Effects in Breast Cancer

open access: yes, 2000
Abstract : Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) are widely-distributed stimuli of cellular growth and functions, which are generated enzymatically from precursors in membranes of activated normal cells and at much higher levels from many types of cancers.

Lysophospholipid Receptors

Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2001
Lysophospholipids (LPs), including lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1-phosphate, produce many cellular effects. However, the prolonged absence of any cloned and identified LP receptor has left open the question of how these lipids actually bring about these effects.

Lysophospholipids--Receptor Revelations

Science, 2001
Upon cell activation, membrane phospholipids are metabolized into potent lysophospholipid (LP) mediators, such as sphingosine 1-phosphate and lysophosphatidic acid. LPs fulfill signaling roles in organisms as diverse as yeast and humans. The recent discovery of G protein–coupled receptors for LPs in higher eukaryotes, and their involvement in ...

Lysophospholipid Receptors in the Nervous System

Neurochemical Research, 2002
The lysophospholipid mediators, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), are responsible for cell signaling in diverse pathways including survival, proliferation, motility, and differentiation. Most of this signaling occurs through an eight-member family of G-protein coupled receptors once known as the endothelial differentiation ...

Lysophospholipid receptors in cell signaling

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2007
There is increasing evidence that different phospholipids are involved in regulation of various cell processes and cell-cell interactions. Lysophospholipids (lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylcholine) and a number of lysosphingolipids play particular roles in these regulations. Their effects are mediated by specific G-protein-coupled receptors.

Cell surface receptors in lysophospholipid signaling

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2004
The lysophospholipids, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), regulate various signaling pathways within cells by binding to multiple G protein-coupled receptors. Receptor-mediated LPA and S1P signaling induces diverse cellular responses including proliferation, adhesion, migration, morphogenesis, differentiation and survival ...

Roles for lysophospholipid S1P receptors in multiple sclerosis

Critical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2010
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) signaling in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) has been highlighted by the efficacy of FTY720 (fingolimod), which upon phosphorylation can modulate S1P receptor activities. FTY720 has become the first oral treatment for relapsing MS that was approved by the FDA in September 2010. Phosphorylated FTY720 modulates four

Chemical approaches to the lysophospholipid receptors

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2005
Both ligand-based and GPCR privileged scaffold chemical tools have recently emerged to provide new insights into the function and physiology of the GPCR lysophospholipid receptors both in vitro and in vivo. Both rational, design-based approaches as well as hybrid approaches where high throughput screening has been coupled to an understanding of ...
