Acid ceramidase targeting pyruvate kinase affected trypsinogen activation in acute pancreatitis
Molecular Medicine, 2022 Background Acute pancreatitis is the sudden inflammation of the pancreas. Severe cases of acute pancreatitis are potentially fatal and have no specific treatment available. Premature trypsinogen activation could initiate acute pancreatitis.

Identification of sphingosine 1-phosphate level and MAPK/ERK signaling in pancreatic β cells [PDF]
Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2021 Purpose Sphingosine kinase is a lipid kinase that phosphorylates sphingosine to generate sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). S1P regulates pancreatic islet β-cell endoplasmic reticulum stress and proliferation.

Sphingosine Kinase and Sphingosine 1-Phosphate in Cardioprotection [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 2009 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 ...

Sphingosine Kinases as Druggable Targets [PDF]
, 2018 There is substantial evidence that the enzymes, sphingosine kinase 1 and 2, which catalyse the formation of the bioactive lipid sphingosine 1-phosphate, are involved in pathophysiological processes. In this chapter, we appraise the evidence that both enzymes are druggable and describe how isoform-specific inhibitors can be developed based on the ...

A real-time high-throughput fluorescence assay for sphingosine kinases
Journal of Lipid Research, 2014 Sphingosine kinases (SphKs), of which there are two isoforms, SphK1 and SphK2, have been implicated in regulation of many important cellular processes. We have developed an assay for monitoring SphK1 and SphK2 activity in real time without the need for ...

Sphingosine kinase and sphingosine 1-phosphate in asthma
Bioscience Reports, 2010 Sphingolipids are amphiphatic molecules ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cell membranes. Initially characterized as structural components of cell membranes, sphingolipids have emerged as sources of important signalling molecules over the past decade.
