Cellular signalling by sphingosine kinase and sphingosine 1-phosphate [PDF]
Sphingosine kinases, through the formation of the bioactive phospholipid sphingosine 1-phosphate, have been implicated in a diverse range of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, calcium homeostasis, angiogenesis and vascular ...

Intracellular S1P generation is essential for S1P-induced motility of human lung endothelial cells : role of sphingosine kinase 1 and S1P lyase [PDF]
Earlier we have shown that extracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) induces migration of human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) through the activation of S1P(1) receptor, PKCε, and PLD2-PKCζ-Rac1 signaling cascade.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate lyases as novel therapeutic targets in intracellular bacteria [PDF]
A critical feature of the pathogenesis of B. pseudomallei is its ability to invade, survive and replicate in both phagocytic and non-phagocytic cells, hence a thorough understanding of this intracellular stage is essential in order to develop novel ...

Role of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors, sphingosine kinases and sphingosine in cancer and inflammation [PDF]
Sphingosine kinase (there are two isoforms, SK1 and SK2) catalyses the formation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid that can be released from cells to activate a family of G protein-coupled receptors, termed S1P1-5. In addition, S1P can bind to intracellular target proteins, such as HDAC1/2, to induce cell responses.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate in renal diseases [PDF]
Because of its highly bioactive properties sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is an attractive target for the treatment of several diseases. Since the expression of sphingosine kinases as well as S1P receptors was demonstrated in the kidney, questions about ...

Targeting sphingosine kinase 1 in carcinoma cells decreases proliferation and survival by compromising PKC activity and cytokinesis [PDF]
Sphingosine kinases (SK) catalyze the phosphorylation of proapoptotic sphingosine to the prosurvival factor sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), thereby promoting oncogenic processes.

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 ...
