Sphingosine-1-phosphate-1 (S1P) receptor agonists are well-known drugs for treating multiple sclerosis (MS) caused by autoreactive lymphocytes that attack the myelin sheath. Therefore, an effective therapeutic strategy is to reduce the lymphocytes in the blood by inducing S1P receptor internalization. We synthesized serinolamide A, a natural product of the sea, and performed S1P receptor internalization assay to evaluate functionally antagonistic S1P receptor agonist activity. In order to synthesize derivatives with better efficacy than serinolamide A and B, new derivatives were synthesized by introducing the phenyl ring moiety of fingolimod. Among them, compounds and had superior S1P agonistic effects to serinolamide. We also confirmed that compound effectively inhibited lymphocyte outflow in peripheral lymphocyte count (PLC) assay.

Background And Aims: Biliary atresia (BA) is a severe neonatal cholangiopathy characterized by progressive inflammation and fibrosis. We aimed to systematically investigate BA pathology using integrated multi-omics.
Methods: Multi-omics integration of BA and control livers revealed sphingolipid dysregulation.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels have long been inversely associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and are traditionally evaluated by serum HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. However, recent studies have raised doubts regarding the causal role of HDL quantity (HDL-C), drawing attention to HDL functionality. Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is a major anti-atherosclerotic mechanism involving ATP-binding cassette A1 (ABCA1), ATP-binding cassette G1 (ABCG1), scavenger receptor class B type I (SRB1), and regulatory factors, such as liver X receptor (LXR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ).

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy accompanied by neuropathic pain (CIPN) is a major neurotoxicity of cisplatin, a platinum-based drug widely used for lung, ovarian, and testicular cancer treatment. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy accompanied by neuropathic pain causes drug discontinuation and severely affects life quality with no FDA-approved interventions. We previously reported that platinum-based drugs increase levels of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) in the spinal cord and drive CIPN through activating the S1P receptor subtype 1 (S1PR1).

Background: Fingolimod is an immunomodulatory drug that has shown promising effects in stroke treatment, including improvements in neurofunctional recovery and a reduction in infarct size. Fingolimod modulates the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors, which leads to the internalization of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors on T and B lymphocytes, thereby preventing their egress from secondary lymphoid organs. Here, we report a secondary analysis from the Stroke Preclinical Assessment Network trial.

Purpose: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) plays a pivotal role in cells as a bioactive lipid mediator, with emerging evidence suggesting that it may play a role in retinal ganglion cell survival, axonal growth, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) barrier function, and photoreceptor function. While previous studies have documented associated ophthalmic effects such as fingolimod-associated macular edema, the specific impact of S1P receptor modulators on inner and outer retinal layer thicknesses requires further elucidation.
Design: Retrospective case series.
