medicine | incubation of lyase-deficient neurons with either sphingosine or S1P results in a similar elevation in cellular S1P, but only S1P addition to the culture medium induces apoptosis. This is not due to S1P acting on the S1P receptor but to hydrolysis of S1P to sphingosine that is phosphorylated by the cells. Although the cells produce S1P from both exogenously added sphingosine as well as sphingosine derived from exogenous S1P, the S1P from these two sources are not equivalent, because the former is primarily produced by SK1, whereas the latter is mainly formed by sphingosine kinase-2 | Mus musculus |
