A commensal protozoan exacerbates acetaminophen-induced liver injury by producing free sphingosine [PDF]
The mechanisms by which the gut microbiota influence host disease outcomes remain poorly understood. As an integral yet overlooked component of this microbial community, the role of gut commensal protists in host physiology and pathology is even more ...

NRPT 1X reduces ALT and ceramide 14:0 in 65% of subjects as compared to only 28% in the placebo group. Abstract Background and Aims The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing globally and on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed.

Sphingosine Kinase and Sphingosine 1-Phosphate in Cardioprotection [PDF]
Activation of sphingosine kinase/sphingosine 1-phosphate-mediated signaling has emerged as a critical cardioprotective pathway in response to acute ischemia/reperfusion injury. Application of exogenous sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) in cultured cardiac myocytes subjected to hypoxia or treatment of isolated hearts either before ischemia or at the onset ...

Interaction of microRNAs with sphingosine kinases, sphingosine-1 phosphate, and sphingosine-1 phosphate receptors in cancer [PDF]
AbstractSphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a pleiotropic lipid mediator, participates in various cellular processes during tumorigenesis, including cell proliferation, survival, drug resistance, metastasis, and angiogenesis. S1P is formed by two sphingosine kinases (SphKs), SphK1 and SphK2. The intracellularly produced S1P is delivered to the extracellular
