Pyridoxine supplementation amelioratesSGPL1 R222Q variant sphingosine phosphate lyase insufficiency syndrome in mice.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase insufficiency syndrome (SPLIS) is a rare condition causing nephrotic syndrome, neuropathy, and other manifestations. SPLIS is caused by mutations in SGPL1, which encodes sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SPL), a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme needed to degrade the bioactive sphingolipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Supplementation with the PLP precursor pyridoxine benefits some individuals with PLP-dependent enzymopathies. We investigated whether pyridoxine has therapeutic activity in SPLIS. Neurological improvement, plasma S1P normalization, and inc…

An inducible sphingosine kinase 1 in hepatic stellate cells potentiates liver fibrosis.

Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) play a role in hepatic fibrosis and sphingosine kinase (SphK) is involved in biological processes. As studies on the regulatory mechanisms and functions of SphK in HSCs during liver fibrosis are currently limited, this study aimed to elucidate the regulatory mechanism and connected pathways of SphK upon HSC activation. The expression of SphK1 was higher in HSCs than in hepatocytes, and upregulated in activated primary HSCs. SphK1 was also increased in liver homogenates of carbon tetrachloride-treated or bile duct ligated mice and in transforming growth factor-β (T…

Abnormal Lymphatic Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Signaling Aggravates Lymphatic Dysfunction and Tissue Inflammation.

BACKGROUND: Lymphedema is a global health problem with no effective drug treatment. Enhanced T-cell immunity and abnormal lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC) signaling are promising therapeutic targets for this condition. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) mediates a key signaling pathway required for normal LEC function, and altered S1P signaling in LECs could lead to lymphatic disease and pathogenic T-cell activation. Characterizing this biology is relevant for developing much needed therapies. METHODS: Human and mouse lymphedema was studied. Lymphedema was induced in mice by surgically ligating th…

Sphingosine-1-phosphate induces myocyte autophagy after myocardial infarction through mTOR inhibition.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P)/S1P receptor 1 signaling exerts cardioprotective effects including inhibition of myocyte apoptosis. However, little is known about the effect of S1P treatment on myocyte autophagy after myocardial infarction (MI). In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that S1P induces myocyte autophagy through inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), leading to improvement of left ventricular (LV) function after MI. Sprague-Dawley rats underwent MI or sham operation. The animals were randomized to receive S1P (50 μg/kg/day, i.p.) or placebo for one week. H9…

Reduction of circulating sphingosine-1-phosphate worsens mdx soleus muscle dystrophic phenotype.

NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of the study? What are the consequences of reducing circulating sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) for muscle physiology in the murine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)? What is the main result and its importance? Reduction of the circulating S1P level in mdx mice aggravates the dystrophic phenotype, as seen by an increase in fibre atrophy, fibrosis and loss of specific force, suggesting that S1P signalling is a potential therapeutic target in DMD. Although further studies are needed, plasma S1P levels have the intriguing possibility of being used…

Responsiveness of sphingosine phosphate lyase insufficiency syndrome to vitamin B6 cofactor supplementation.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) lyase is a vitamin B6-dependent enzyme that degrades sphingosine-1-phosphate in the final step of sphingolipid metabolism. In 2017, a new inherited disorder was described caused by mutations in SGPL1, which encodes sphingosine phosphate lyase (SPL). This condition is referred to as SPL insufficiency syndrome (SPLIS) or alternatively as nephrotic syndrome type 14 (NPHS14). Patients with SPLIS exhibit lymphopenia, nephrosis, adrenal insufficiency, and/or neurological defects. No targeted therapy for SPLIS has been reported. Vitamin B6 supplementation has therapeutic…

Discovery of super soft-drug modulators of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1.

The oral S1PR1 agonist ponesimod demonstrated substantial efficacy in a phase II clinical trial of psoriasis. Unfortunately, systemic side effects were observed, which included lymphopenia and transient bradycardia. We sought to develop a topical soft-drug S1PR1 agonist with an improved therapeutic index. By modifying ponesimod, we discovered an ester series of S1PR agonists. To increase metabolic instability in plasma we synthesised esters described as specific substrates for paraoxonase and butyrylcholinesterases, esterases present in human plasma.

FTY720, sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator, selectively radioprotects hippocampal neural stem cells.

Cranial irradiation is an effective treatment modality for both primary and metastatic brain tumors, yet it induces cognitive decline in a substantial number of patients. At present, there are no established methods for neuroprotection. Recent investigations have revealed a link between radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction and the loss of neural precursor cells in the hippocampus. Hence, identifying pharmacological agents, capable of protecting this cell population, is of interest. FTY720 (fingolimod), an FDA-approved oral drug for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, has been shown to prom

S1P₂ receptor regulation of sphingosine-1-phosphate effects on conventional outflow physiology.

Elevated intraocular pressure is the main risk factor in primary open-angle glaucoma, involving an increased resistance to aqueous humor outflow in the juxtacanalicular region of the conventional outflow pathway which includes the trabecular meshwork (TM) and the inner wall of Schlemm's canal (SC). Previously, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) was shown to decrease outflow facility in porcine and human eyes, thus increasing outflow resistance and intraocular pressure. Owing to S1P's known effect of increasing barrier function in endothelial cells and the robust expression of the S1P₁ receptor on t…

Ocular safety signals of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulators in postmarketing surveillance.

BACKGROUND: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators are used for immune-mediated diseases, and macular oedema is an established ocular adverse effect. However, ocular-focused, class-wide postmarketing reporting across all five approved agents remains incompletely characterized. METHODS: We analyzed U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data from 2004 Q1 through 2026 Q1 using report-level deduplication, approval-aligned windows, and primary-suspect exposure. Ocular events were assessed using a curated set of 52 Preferred Term (PT) strings. Sensitivi…

A commensal protozoan exacerbates acetaminophen-induced liver injury by producing free sphingosine.

The mechanisms by which the gut microbiota influence host disease outcomes remain poorly understood. As an integral yet overlooked component of this microbial community, the role of gut commensal protists in host physiology and pathology is even more ambiguous. Here, we show that the protozoan Tritrichomonas musculis (T. mu) remotely increases host sensitivity to drug-induced liver injury via the production of free sphingosine. Inhibiting sphingosine kinases (SPHKs) with PF543 or K145, or antagonizing sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) with FTY720, abolished the effect of T. mu-mediated e…

Heparin decreases serum sphingosine-1-phosphate levels in patients with vascular diseases.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is crucial for cardiovascular homeostasis and pathophysiology. We aimed to explore i) whether the associations between blood components and circulating S1P change in patients with atherosclerosis undergoing invasive vascular procedures and ii) whether in a mice model of vascular injury heparin treatment regulates circulatory S1P levels and intimal hyperplasia. METHODS: In a group of patients with vascular diseases, S1P blood concentrations and laboratory parameters were measured before and shortly after vascular procedures (n = 330) as well a…
