General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function under hypoxia, isoform Sk2 shows an increase in protein level and activity, which correlates with the release of shingosine 1-phosphate into the medium. Knockdown of Sk2 by siRNA releives chemoresistance of A-450 cells under hypoxia and conditioned medium obtained from Sk2 knock-down cells is only partly protective, while conditioned medium of cells with normal levels of Sk2, incubated for 24 h under hypoxia, protects naive A-549 cells from etoposide-induced cell death Homo sapiens
