Sphingosine kinase and sphingosine-1-phosphate in liver pathobiology [PDF]
Over 20 years ago, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) was discovered to be a bioactive signaling molecule. Subsequent studies later identified two related kinases, sphingosine kinase 1 and 2, which are responsible for the phosphorylation of sphingosine to S1P. Many stimuli increase sphingosine kinase activity and S1P production and secretion.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors: do they have a therapeutic potential in cardiac fibrosis? [PDF]
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that is characterized by a peculiar mechanism of action. In fact, S1P, which is produced inside the cell, can act as an intracellular mediator, whereas after its export outside the cell, it can act as ...

Bioactive sphingolipids—ceramide, sphingosine, and their respective 1-phosphates (C1P and S1P)—are signaling molecules serving as intracellular second messengers. Moreover, S1P acts through G protein-coupled receptors in the plasma membrane. Accumulating

Recent advances in the role of sphingosine 1‐phosphate in cancer
Sphingosine 1‐phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that binds to a family of G protein‐coupled receptors (S1P1–5) and intracellular targets, such as HDAC1/2, that are functional in normal and pathophysiologic cell biology. There is a significant role for

Cellular signalling by sphingosine kinase and sphingosine 1‐phosphate [PDF]
AbstractSphingosine 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 maturation. The last few years have seen a number of significant advances in understanding of the

Signaling at the membrane interface by the DGK/SK enzyme family
The sphingosine (SK) and diacylglycerol (DGK) kinases have become the subject of considerable focus recently due to their involvement as signaling enzymes in a variety of important biological processes.

Cancer cells may depend on exogenous serine, depletion of which results in slower growth and activation of adaptive metabolic changes. We previously demonstrated that serine and glycine (SG) deprivation causes loss of sphingosine kinase 1 (SK1) in cancer
