Interaction between anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate in mediating vasorelaxation in rat coronary artery [PDF]
<b>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE</b> Anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) both regulate vascular tone in a variety of vessels. This study aimed to examine the mechanisms involved in the regulation of coronary vascular tone by anandamide and ...

Bile acids as global regulators of hepatic nutrient metabolism
Bile acids (BA) are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver. They are essential for promotion of the absorption of lipids, cholesterol, and lipid-soluble vitamins from the intestines.

Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Promotes FOS Activation in Osteosarcoma Under Tumor Acidosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim The tumor microenvironment in solid tumors is characterized by extracellular acidosis, which promotes cancer aggressiveness. In osteosarcoma, the most common primary bone cancer, a highly acidic tumor microenvironment is associated with metastasis and poor prognosis, partly due to metabolic rewiring, including changes in lipid pathways ...

Effects of Selective Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptor 1 Agonist, TRV045, on Evoked Pain Tests: An Exploratory, Four-Way Cross-Over Study in Healthy Volunteers. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Preclinical evidence suggests that dysregulation of the ceramide‐sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P) axis may have analgesic properties. However, currently approved S1PR1 modulators such as fingolimod are hindered for this indication as they induce lymphopenia.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase, a key regulator of sphingosine 1-phosphate signaling and function [PDF]
SPL is a highly conserved enzyme responsible for the irreversible degradation of the bioactive lipid, S1P. SPL regulates intracellular pools of S1P available for ligation of its five receptors and as such has a strong influence upon autocrine, paracrine and distant S1P signaling events.

Intravenous sphingosylphosphorylcholine protects ischemic and postischemic myocardial tissue in a mouse model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury [PDF]
HDL, through sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), exerts direct cardioprotective effects on ischemic myocardium. It remains unclear whether other HDL-associated sphingophospholipids have similar effects.

Mitochondrial sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase is essential for phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis and survival of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Sphingosine-1-phosphate is a signaling molecule involved in the control of cell migration, differentiation, survival and other physiological processes. This sphingolipid metabolite can be degraded by the action of sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SPL) to ...
