The sphingolipid metabolites ceramide,sphingosine,and sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P) and its enzyme sphingosine kinase(SphK) play an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation,survival,inflammation,and cell ...
Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is an important mediator of apoptosis and the proliferation of cancer cells. It is upregulated in cells showing increasing radioresistance. Here we present the correlation between SphK1 ex...
