myometrium during gestation, isoforms Sphk1 and Sphk2 are co-expressed. The levels and activity of SphK1/2 are modest at midgestation , increase at day 19 and progressively decline to low at postpartum. Inhibition of protein kinase C and ERK reduces SphK1/2 activity. In primary cultures of myometrial cells from day 19 pregnant rats, induction of COX2 is mediated by 4-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate and IL-1 through sequential activation of protein kinase C, ERK1/2, and SphK1. Sphingosine 1-phosphate produced by SphK1 is released in the medium. In day 12 myometrial tissues, the release of sphingosine 1-phosphate is markedly reduced in association with low levels of SphK1 and COX2 Rattus norvegicus
