Inhibition of acid sphingomyelinase disrupts LYNUS signaling and triggers autophagy
Journal of Lipid Research, 2018 Activation of the lysosomal ceramide-producing enzyme, acid sphingomyelinase (ASM), by various stresses is centrally involved in cell death and has been implicated in autophagy.

Gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry of synthetic ceramides
Journal of Lipid Research, 1969 Two series of ceramides with either sphingosine (sphing-4-enine) or sphinganine as base and with one of the saturated fatty acids C16, C18, C20, C22, C24, C26, or oleic acid were analyzed as the 1,3-di-O-trimethylsilyl ether derivatives by gas ...

Targeting the sphingosine kinase/sphingosine 1-phosphate pathway in disease: Review of sphingosine kinase inhibitors [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2013 Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is an important bioactive sphingolipid metabolite that has been implicated in numerous physiological and cellular processes. Not only does S1P play a structural role in cells by defining the components of the plasma membrane, but in the last 20 years it has been implicated in various significant cell signaling pathways and

Drugging Sphingosine Kinases [PDF]
ACS Chemical Biology, 2014 The transfer of the gamma phosphate from ATP to sphingosine (Sph) to generate a small signaling molecule, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), is catalyzed by sphingosine kinases (SphK), which exist as two isoforms, SphK1 and SphK2. SphK is a key regulator of S1P and the S1P:Sph/ceramide ratio.

A novel mode of action of the putative sphingosine kinase inhibitor 2-(p-hydroxyanilino)-4-(p-chlorophenyl) thiazole (SKI II): induction of lysosomal sphingosine kinase 1 degradation [PDF]
, 2010 Sphingosine kinase 1 (SK1) is a key enzyme in the generation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) which critically regulates a variety of important cell responses such as proliferation and migration.
