General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function in cardiac fibroblasts, sphingosine 1-phosphate increases alpha-smooth muscle actin and collagen expression in a S1P2 receptor- and Rho-kinase-dependent manner. TGF-beta increases sphingosine kinase 1 expression and activity. TGF-beta-stimulated collagen production is inhibited by SphK1 or S1P2 siRNA, a SphK inhibitor, and an anti-S1P monoclonal antibody Mus musculus
