Transcriptional Regulation of Sphingosine Kinase 1 [PDF]
Once thought to be primarily structural in nature, sphingolipids have become increasingly appreciated as second messengers in a wide array of signaling pathways.

Ablation of Sphingosine Kinase 1 Protects Cornea from Neovascularization in a Mouse Corneal Injury Model [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1), which generates sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), in corneal neovascularization (NV).

Sphingosine Kinase 1 and Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Signaling in Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Sphingosine kinase 1 (Sphk1) is a highly conserved lipid kinase that phosphorylates sphingosine to form sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Growing studies have demonstrated that Sphk1 is overexpressed in various types of solid cancers and can be induced by growth factors, cytokines, and carcinogens, leading to the increase of S1P production.

Sphingolipid Expression During Corneal Wound Healing in a Sphingosine Kinase 1 Knockout Model [PDF]
Corneal scarring is a result of unregulated fibrotic processes in wound healing, which causes visual impairment. Bioactive sphingolipids (SPLs) are known to modulate physiological processes that are central to wound healing.

Sphingosine kinase 1 mediates sexual dimorphism in fibrosis in a mouse model of NASH [PDF]
Objective: Men with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are more likely to progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis than women. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this dimorphism is unclear.

The Sphingosine Kinase 1/Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Pathway in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
Abstract Rationale Sphingosine kinases (SphKs) 1 and 2 regulate the synthesis of the bioactive sphingolipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), an important lipid mediator that promotes cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis ...

Mechanisms by which cancer cells communicate with the host organism to regulate lung colonization/metastasis are unclear. We show that this communication occurs via sphingosine 1‐phosphate (S1P) generated systemically by sphingosine kinase 1 (SK1 ...

A Novel Function of Sphingosine Kinase 2 in the Metabolism of Sphinga-4,14-Diene Lipids
The number, position, and configuration of double bonds in lipids affect membrane fluidity and the recruitment of signaling proteins. Studies on mammalian sphingolipids have focused on those with a saturated sphinganine or mono-unsaturated sphingosine ...
