| drug target | pharmacological inhibition of sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase prevents the progression of cancer | Homo sapiens |
| metabolism | sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase facilitates cancer progression through converting sphingolipids to glycerophospholipids. Overexpression of sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase in Colon 26 cells results in elevated levels of lysophosphatidylinositol and lysophosphatidylglycerol, which are agonists of GPR55. Sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase overexpression-enhanced cell proliferation is inhibited by GPR55 silencing. Contribution of sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase and glycerolyssphingosine 1-phosphate lyase to tumour progression depending on levels of sphingosine 1-phosphate lyase and GPR55. The underlying mechanisms for the SPL-mediated cancer progression are the activation of p38 and mitochondrial function through the lysophosphatidylinositol, lysophosphatidylglycerol-GPR55 axis and the suppression of autophagy in a GPR55-independent manner | Homo sapiens |
