Recent studies, however, have shown that HDL exerts a variety of anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic actions independently of cholesterol metabolism. The present review provides an overview of the roles of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P)/S1P receptor and apolipoprotein A-I/scavenger receptor class B type I systems in the anti-atherogenic HDL actions. In addition, the physiological significance of the existence of S1P in the HDL particles is discussed.展开更多

Sphingolipids were demonstrated to function as structural components, second messengers, and regulators of cell growth and survival in normal and disease-affected tissues. Particularly, sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) and its product sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) operate as mediators and facilitators of proliferation-linked signaling. Unlimited proliferation (selfrenewal) within the regulated environment is a hallmark of progenitor/stem cells that was recently associated with the S1P signaling network in vasculature, nervous,muscular, and immune systems. S1P was shown to regulate progenitor-related characteristics in normal and cancerstemcells(CSCs) viaG-protein coupled receptorsS1Pn(n=1 to 5). The SphK/S1P axis is crucially involved in the regulation of embryonic development of vasculature and the nervous system, hematopoietic stem cell migration, regeneration of skeletal muscle, and development of multiple sclerosis. The ratio of the S1P receptor expression, localization, and specific S1P receptoractivated downstream effectors influenced the rate of selfrenewal and should be further explored as regeneration related targets. Considering malignant transformation,it is essential to control the level of self-renewal capacity.Proliferation of the progenitor cell should be synchronized with differentiation to provide healthy lifelong function of blood, immune systems, and replacement of damaged ordead cells. The differentiation-related role of SphK/S1P remains poorly assessed. A few pioneering investigations exploredpharmacologicaltoolsthattargetsphingolipid signaling and can potentially confine and direct self-renewal towards normal differentiation. Further investigation is required to test the role of the SphK/S1P axis in regulation of self-renewal and differentiation.展开更多

Their metabolites ceramide, sphingosine, and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) have important physiological functions, including regulation of cell growth and survival. S1P is generated by phosphorylation of sphingosine catalyzed by sphingosine kinase-1 (SPHK1). The purpose of this study is to explore the roles of S1P, S1P receptors, and sphingosine kinases in malignant musculoskeletal tumors. Twenty-one tumor samples (7 liposarcomas, 3 chondrosarcomas, 6 osteosarcomas, 5 MFH) obtained at open biopsy, and four human MFH cell lines (Nara H, Nara F, TNMY1, GBS-1) were used. We examined the mRNA expression of S1P receptors by RT-PCR, and the expression levels of SPHK by Real-time PCR. We used 4 MFH cell lines to analyze SPHK1 proteins by Western blotting. SPHK1 siRNA was transfected into MFH cell lines by lipofection method. Cell proliferation (control and transfected with siRNA) was assayed using WST-8 (Cell Counting Kit-8) assay. All high grade malignant tumors expressed S1P1, S1P2, S1P3 receptors, whereas the expression of S1P1 receptor was detected in 50% of low-grade malignant tumors, S1P2 receptor in 30%, and S1P3 in 50%. No statistically significant difference was found in the expression level of SPHK1 between high-grade and low-grade malignant tumors by Real-time PCR. By results of Western blotting, proteins of SPHK1 were expressed in all MFH cell lines. In MFH cell lines, transfection with SPHK1 siRNA oligonucleotides resulted in approximately 50 to 80% suppression of SPHK1 mRNA expression as determined by real-time PCR. Down-regulation of SPHK1 with small interfering RNA significantly reduced SPHK1 protein levels by Western blotting. Knock down of SPHK1 expression significantly decreased cell proliferation of all MFH cells. These results suggest that the expression of S1P receptors may play an important role for cell proliferation and may correlate with histologic grade in malignant bone and soft tissue tumors, and that SPHK1 may be one of essential molecules for cell proliferation in MFH cell lines.展开更多

This study investigated the role that sphingosine kinases (SPHK) and ceramide-derived sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) play in adipocyte terminal differentiation. Materials and Methods: The mouse 3T3-L1 cell line was used as a model for adipogenesis. Cells were harvested at specific time points after initation of differentiation, and SPHK activity was measured. 3T3-L1 cells were treated with S1P and expression of early adipogenesis transcription markers was measured by real time PCR. The expression of S1P-receptors (S1PRs) during differentiation was measured. Results: SPHK activity is induced when 3T3-L1 cells are treated with insulin, dexamethasone, and isobutylmethylxanthine to induce differentiation. SPHK1 is active in preadipocytes and early in the differentiation process. Both SPHK1 and SPHK2 isozymes contribute to activity in differentiated adipocytes. Inhibition of SPHK1 attenuates adipocyte differentiation;however, extracellular S1P does not rescue the effect of SPHK1 inhibition on adipogenesis. Although treatment of preadipocytes with S1P induced message expression of the early adipogenesis transcription factor CC AAT/ binding proteinalpha, continued treatment did not fully support the development of differentiated adipocytes. Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors (S1PRs) are expressed in preadipocytes and message expression declines markedly during adipocyte differentiation. Conclusion: These results demonstrate that the contribution of SPHK and S1P to adipogenesis is mediated primarily through biphasic activation of SPHK1 and 2 with extracellular S1P and S1PRs playing little role during preadipocyte differentiation.展开更多

文摘The reverse cholesterol transport mediated by high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is an important mechanism for maintaining body cholesterol, and hence, the crucial anti-atherogenic action of the lipoprotein. Recent studies, however, have shown that HDL exerts a variety of anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic actions independently of cholesterol metabolism.
