sphingosine

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an agonist for S1P1-5 receptors and a ligand for GPR3, GPR6, and GPR12. As an intracellular second messenger, it mobilizes Ca2+ and acts as an extracellular ligand for G-protein coupled receptors. This important lipid mediator is generated from sphingosine or other membrane phospholipids.

Sphingosine (d17:1) (C17 Sphingosine) is a 17-carbon sphingolipid found in human skin that can be phosphorylated by sphingomyelin kinase.Sphingosine C-17 can be used as an internal standard to perform spectroscopic analysis of sphingolipids.

D-erythro-Sphingosine hydrochloride, also known as Erythrosphingosine, serves as a specific TRPM3 activator and induces retinoblastoma protein dephosphorylation.

Sphingosine (d14:1) is a bioactive sphingolipid that has been found in B. mori (silkworm), P. clarkii (crayfish), and A. aurita (jellyfish) extracts. It increases the germination rate of N. rileyi, an entomopathogenic fungus, with an EC50 value of 10.2 nM. Sphingosine (d14:1) inhibits protein kinase C (PKC) in vitro (IC50 = 7.3 mol%) as well as superoxide generation induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate in neutrophils and reduces growth of CHO cells (IC50s = 19 and 8 μM, respectively).

Glucosylsphingosine (Lyso-Gb1) is a naturally occurring glycosyl ceramide, a metabolite of GBA (acid β-glucosidase), involved in cellular recognition, signaling, and intercellular interactions.Glucopsychosine accumulates in certain neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Gaucher disease), disrupts lysosomal function through activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), and is a noncompetitive inhibitor of glucocerebrosidase.

Dihydrosphingosine is a Protein kinase C inhibitor.

D-Glucosyl-β-1,1′-N-palmitoylsphingosine (C16 Glucosyl(β) Ceramide (d18:1 16:0)) is an endogenous ligand for the Macrophage-Inducible C-type Lectin (Mincle) with immunostimulatory properties [1].

Phytosphingosine is a phospholipid with anticancer properties. In cancer cells, Phytosphingosine induces cell apoptosis through activation of caspase 8 and translocation of Bax.

D-Erythro-dihydrosphingosine (C18-Dihydrosphingosine) inhibits arachidonic acid release and cPLA2α activity.

N-Stearoylsphingosine (Cer(d18:1 18:0)) is an amide compound widely found in eukaryotic organisms that enhances protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity by interfering with the binding of PP2A to PP2A inhibitor 2, leading to dephosphorylation of Akt.N-Stearoylsphingosine is used in prostate cancer research.

Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a member of the phorbol ester group of natural products, activates PKC, SphK, and NF-κB, and induces THP1 cell differentiation.

Fingolimod (FTY-720A) is an antagonist of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) (IC50 of 0.033 nM in K562 and NK cells).

Fumonisin B2 is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium moniliforme in various grains. It also is a potent inhibitor of sphingosine N-acyltransferase (ceramide synthase). Which disrupts de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis.

Fumonisin B1 (Fumonisin-B1) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium oxysporum that is widely present in crops, contaminating them and posing a significant food safety hazard.Fumonisin B1 is structurally a sphingosine and sphingomyelin analog, and inhibits the biosynthesis of complex sphingolipids through the inhibition of ceramidic synthases.

Tricosanoic acid (Tricosan-1-oic acid) , also known as N-tricosanoate or tricosylate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as very long-chain fatty acids.Tricosanoic acid has been detected in multiple biofluids, such as blood and urine. Within the cell, Tricosanoic acid is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP), cytoplasm and adiposome. Tricosanoic acid is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, beta-D-galactosyl-N-(tricosanoyl)sphingosine, beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucosyl-(11)-N-tricosanoylsphingosine, and N-(tricosanoyl)-[(4E,6E)-tetradecasphingadienine]-1-phosphoethanolamine. Outside of the human body, Tricosanoic acid can be found in citrus, date, and papaya. This makes Tricosanoic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.

C14 Ceramide (d18:1 14:0) is an endogenous ceramide produced by ceramide synthetase 6, which can be used for Parkinson's research.

C12-Ceramide (C12 Ceramide (d18:1 12:0)), a ceramide present in the protective membranes surrounding umbilical cord blood vessels in infants born to women with pre-eclampsia, can be used to assess the level of ASM activity in the plasma of patients with Niemann-Pick disease.

Mycestericin G, a sphingosine-like fungal metabolite, demonstrates immunosuppressive activity [1].

C20 Ceramide (N-Arachidoyl-D-sphingosine) is a 20:0 ceramide found in the brain that crosses the blood-brain barrier to activate microglia and induce depressive-like behavior.

Nervonic acid (Selacholeic acid) is a long chain unsaturated fatty acid that is enriched in sphingomyelin. It consists of choline, sphingosine, phosphoric acid, and fatty acid. Nervonic acid may enhance the brain functions and prevent demyelination (Chemical Land21). Research shows that there is negative relationship between nervonic acid and obesity-related risk factors. Demyelination in adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is associated with an accumulation of very long chain saturated fatty acids stemming from a genetic defect in the peroxisomal beta oxidation system responsible for the chain shortening of these fatty acids. Sphingolipids from post mortem ALD brain have decreased levels of nervonic acid, 24:1(n-9), and increased levels of stearic acid, 18:0.
