Abstract
Mast cells are innate immune cells that function as regulatory or effector cells and serve to amplify adaptive immunity. In adaptive immunity these cells function primarily through cell surface Fc receptors that bind immunoglobulin antibodies. The dysregulation of their adaptive role makes them central players in allergy and asthma. Upon encountering an allergen (antigen), which is recognized by immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies bound to the high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) expressed on their cell surface, mast cells secrete both preformed and newly synthesized mediators of the allergic response. Blocking of these responses is an objective in therapeutic intervention of allergic diseases. Thus, understanding the mechanisms by which antigens elicit mast cell activation (via FcepsilonRI) holds promise toward identifying therapeutic targets. Here we review the most recent advances in understanding antigen-dependent mast cell activation. Specifically, we focus on the requirements for FcepsilonRI activation, the regulation of calcium responses, co-stimulatory signals in FcepsilonRI-mediated mast cell activation and function, and how genetics influences mast cell signaling and responses. These recent discoveries open new avenues of investigation with therapeutic potential.

Abstract
The present study aimed at investigating the influence of imidazoline receptor ligands on the proliferation of PC12 cells and the involvement of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signaling system in this effect. In cultured PC12 cells, S1P (0.3-100 nM) and the I(1) imidazoline receptor ligands moxonidine (0.3 and 1 mM), agmatine (1 mM), idazoxan (10-100 microM) and efaroxan (1-100 microM) concentration-dependently reduced protein contents which were used as estimates for cell number. The antiproliferative effects elicited by the compounds were abolished after knock-down of S1P(1), S1P(2) and S1P(3) receptors by RNA interference indicating an involvement of S1P receptors. In conclusion, the present data add further evidence to the recent finding that effects of imidazoline receptor ligands in PC12 cells are mediated by homo- and heterodimers of members of the S1P receptor family.

Abstract
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors are widely expressed in the central nervous system where they are thought to regulate glia cell function. The phosphorylated version of fingolimod/FTY720 (FTY720P) is active on a broad spectrum of S1P receptors and the parent compound is currently in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Here, we aimed to identify which cell type(s) and S1P receptor(s) of the central nervous system are targeted by FTY720P. Using calcium imaging in mixed cultures from embryonic rat cortex we show that astrocytes are the major cell type responsive to FTY720P in this assay. In enriched astrocyte cultures, we detect expression of S1P1 and S1P3 receptors and demonstrate that FTY720P activates Gi protein-mediated signaling cascades. We also show that FTY720P as well as the S1P1-selective agonist SEW2871 stimulate astrocyte migration. The data indicate that FTY720P exerts its effects on astrocytes predominantly via the activation of S1P1 receptors, whereas S1P signals through both S1P1 and S1P3 receptors. We suggest that this distinct pharmacological profile of FTY720P, compared with S1P, could play a role in the therapeutic effects of FTY720 in multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
Neointimal lesion formation was induced in sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor 2 (S1P2)-null and wild-type mice by ligation of the left carotid artery. After 28 days, large neointimal lesions developed in S1P2-null but not in wild-type arteries. This was accompanied with a significant increase in both medial and intimal smooth muscle cell (SMC) replication between days 4 to 28, with only minimal replication in wild-type arteries. S1P2-null SMCs showed a significant increase in migration when stimulated with S1P alone and together with platelet-derived growth factor, whereas both wild-type and null SMCs migrated equally well to platelet-derived growth factor. S1P increased Rho activation in wild-type but not in S1P2-null SMCs, and inhibition of Rho activity promoted S1P-induced SMC migration. Plasma S1P levels were similar and did not change after surgery. These results suggest that activation of S1P2 normally acts to suppress SMC growth in arteries and that S1P is a regulator of neointimal development.

Abstract
The S1P1 receptor, on the surface of lymphocytes and endothelial cells, regulates the unique trafficking behavior of certain lymphocyte populations. We have examined whether the S1P1 receptor also dictates the distinctive tissue distribution of V alpha14-J alpha18 natural killer T (NKT) cells, whose trafficking pattern is not well understood. Mice (TCS1P1 KO) were established with a conditional deletion of the S1P1 receptor in thymocytes that included precursors of NKT cells. Within the thymus, NKT cells were found at normal or increased levels, indicating that S1P1 receptor expression was dispensable for NKT cell development. However, substantially reduced numbers of NKT cells were detected in the peripheral tissues of the TCS1P1 KO mice. Short-term S1P1 deletion after NKT cells had established residence in the periphery did not substantially alter their distribution in tissues, except for a partial decrease in the spleen. FTY720, a S1P1 receptor ligand that has potent effects on the trafficking of conventional T cells, did not alter the preexisting distribution of NKT cells within peripheral tissues of wild-type mice. Our results indicate that the S1P1 receptor expression on NKT cells is dispensable for development within thymus but is essential for the establishment of their tissue residency in the periphery.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid that is critically involved in the embryonic development of the cardiovascular and central nervous systems. In the adult, S1P can produce cytoskeletal re-arrangements in many cell types to regulate immune cell trafficking, vascular homeostasis and cell communication in the central nervous system. S1P is contained in body fluids and tissues at different concentrations, and excessive production of the pleiotropic mediator at inflammatory sites may participate in various pathological conditions. Gene deletion studies and reverse pharmacology (techniques aiming to identify both ligands and function of receptors) provided evidence that many effects of S1P are mediated via five G-protein-coupled S1P receptor subtypes, and novel therapeutic strategies based on interaction with these receptors are being initiated. The prototype S1P receptor modulator, FTY720 (fingolimod), targets four of the five S1P receptor subtypes and may act at several levels to modulate lymphocyte trafficking via lymphocytic and endothelial S1P1 and, perhaps, other inflammatory processes through additional S1P receptor subtypes. A recently completed Phase II clinical trial suggested that the drug may provide an effective treatment of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. FTY720 is currently being evaluated in larger-scale, longer-term, Phase III studies. This review provides an overview on S1P activities and S1P receptor function in health and disease, and summarizes the clinical experience with FTY720 in transplantation and multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a natural lipid mediator that regulates immune cell traffic, Ab production, and T cell cytokine generation by mechanisms that enhance Th2 activities. Responses to S1P are controlled principally by the diverse expression patterns of its receptors in different cells. In T cells, the type 1 (S1P(1)) and type 4 (S1P(4)) G protein-coupled receptors are predominant. S1P(1) mainly transduces effects on T cell migration and trafficking, whereas S1P(4) transduces immunosuppression via its effects on T cell proliferation and cytokine production. Using T cell-specific S1P(1) transgenic (TG) mice, we investigated the regulatory effects of the S1P-S1P(1) axis on T cell cytokine production. The production of IL-4, but not IL-2 or IFN-gamma, was significantly up-regulated >10-fold in activated CD4 T cells from S1P(1) TG mice compared with those from wild-type mice. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that IL-4 up-regulation was initiated at the mRNA level as early as 4 h after T cell activation. The up-regulation of IL-4 mRNA was mediated by c-Maf, Jun B, and Gata3 as demonstrated by increases in their protein expression and DNA-binding activities. In contrast, the expression and DNA-binding activities of T-bet, FosB, C-Fos, Jun D, Fra-1, Fra-2, and c-Jun all were identical in wild-type and TG CD4 T cells. Immunological assays showed that increased IL-4 levels induced greater production of IgE. Thus, the S1P-S1P(1) axis specifically up-regulates c-Maf, Jun B, and Gata3, which consequently enhance IL-4 production that may lead to a Th2 phenotype.

Abstract
Human embryonic stem (hES) cells replicate by the process of self-renewal while maintaining their pluripotency. This process may be regulated by several different pathways and is poorly understood. In this study, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors were localized on hES cells of several cell lines (Shef 1-6), and their presence was verified by RT (reverse transcriptase)-PCR and western blotting. Dual staining with the stem cell marker Tra-1-60 revealed the presence of S1P receptors on pluripotential cells. Medium supplemented with 20 microM S1P significantly reduced the level of apoptosis in cultures of each of the Shef lines. S1P treatment was also found to statistically increase the level of proliferation in cell cultures. All Shef lines responded to S1P treatment in a similar manner; however, minor differences between cell lines were apparent. S1P directs cell fate decisions of many cell types. Here we demonstrate a role for S1P in hES cell survival by reducing apoptosis and increasing proliferation.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an ABC-transporter highly expressed in brain capillaries, protects the brain by extruding xenobiotics. However, its overexpression has also been associated with the multidrug resistance phenotype in tumors. Here, we have investigated the regulation of P-gp transport activity by sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK-1) in brain endothelial cells. We first demonstrated that SphK-1 is overexpressed in endothelial cells (EC) isolated from rat brain tumors compared with EC from normal brain. We also provide evidence that the overexpression of SphK-1 in the cerebral EC line RBE4 leads to the up-regulation of P-gp, both at the gene and protein levels, and that this modulation depends on the catalytic activity of SphK-1. Moreover, we determined the effect of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), the product of SphK-1, on P-gp function. S1P strongly stimulates P-gp transport activity, without modulating its expression. Finally, we found that the S1P-mediated stimulation of P-gp activity is mediated by S1P-1 and S1P-3 receptors at the RBE4 cell surface. Altogether, these results indicate that SphK-1 and its product S1P are involved in the control of P-gp activity in RBE4 cells. Since SphK-1 is overexpressed in EC from brain tumors, these data also suggest that this kinase and its product could contribute to the acquisition and the maintenance of the multidrug resistance phenotype in brain tumor-derived endothelial cells.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is concentrated in lipoprotein, especially high density lipoprotein (HDL), in plasma. We characterized the role of HDL-associated S1P in HDL-induced anti-atherogenic effects. HDL-associated S1P mediated HDL-induced stimulation of proliferation, migration and inhibition of apoptosis through S1P specific receptors S1P1 and/or S1P3 in endothelial cells. On the other hand, HDL-induced nitric oxide production and inhibition of adhesion molecule expression were mediated by two pathways, i.e, HDL-associated apoprotein A-I, A-II/SR-BI and S1P/S1P receptors in endothelial cells. Thus, in endothelial cells, HDL-associated S1P is a key player of HDL-induced anti-atherogenic effects.

Abstract
Withdrawing growth factors or serum from endothelial cells leads to the activation of effector caspases 3 and 7, resulting in apoptotic cell death. HDL protects against caspase induction through sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors. This anti-caspase activity of HDL is antagonized by VLDL from apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4) (genotype, APOE4/4; apolipoprotein, apoE) targeted replacement (TR) mice, but not by VLDL from TR APOE3/3 mice, and requires the binding of apoE4-VLDL to an LDL receptor family member. In the absence of HDL, apoE4-VLDL and apoE3-VLDL from TR mice have limited antiapoptotic activity. In contrast, we show here that a high-fat/high-cholesterol/cholate diet (HFD) radically alters this biological activity of VLDL. On HFD, both apoE3-VLDL and apoE4-VLDL (HFD VLDL) inhibit caspase 3/7 activation initiated by serum withdrawal. This activity of HFD VLDL is independent of an LDL receptor family member but requires the activation of S1P(3) receptors, as shown by the ability of pharmacological block of S1P receptors by VPC 23019 and by small interfering RNA-mediated downregulation of S1P(3) receptors to inhibit HFD VLDL anticaspase activity.

Abstract
Lymphocytes require sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor-1 to exit lymphoid organs, but the source(s) of extracellular S1P and whether S1P directly promotes egress are unknown. By using mice in which the two kinases that generate S1P were conditionally ablated, we find that plasma S1P is mainly hematopoietic in origin, with erythrocytes a major contributor, whereas lymph S1P is from a distinct radiation-resistant source. Lymphocyte egress from thymus and secondary lymphoid organs was markedly reduced in kinase-deficient mice. Restoration of S1P to plasma rescued egress to blood but not lymph, and the rescue required lymphocyte expression of S1P-receptor-1. Thus, separate sources provide S1P to plasma and lymph to help lymphocytes exit the low-S1P environment of lymphoid organs. Disruption of compartmentalized S1P signaling is a plausible mechanism by which S1P-receptor-1 agonists function as immunosuppressives.

Abstract
Hearing requires the transduction of vibrational forces by specialized epithelial cells in the cochlea known as hair cells. The human ear contains a finite number of terminally differentiated hair cells that, once lost by noise-induced damage or toxic insult, can never be regenerated. We report here that sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) signaling, mainly via activation of its cognate receptor S1P2, is required for the maintenance of vestibular and cochlear hair cells in vivo. Two S1P receptors, S1P2 and S1P3, were found to be expressed in the cochlea by reverse transcription-PCR and in situ hybridization. Mice that are null for both these receptors uniformly display progressive cochlear and vestibular defects with hair cell loss, resulting in complete deafness by 4 weeks of age and, with complete penetrance, balance defects of increasing severity. This study reveals the previously unknown role of S1P signaling in the maintenance of cochlear and vestibular integrity and suggests a means for therapeutic intervention in degenerative hearing loss.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid produced by sphingosine kinase (SphK1 and 2). We previously showed that S1P receptors (S1P1, S1P2, and S1P3) are expressed in hepatic myofibroblasts (hMF), a population of cells that triggers matrix remodeling during liver injury. Here we investigated the function of these receptors in the wound healing response to acute liver injury elicited by carbon tetrachloride, a process that associates hepatocyte proliferation and matrix remodeling. Acute liver injury was associated with the induction of S1P2, S1P3, SphK1, and SphK2 mRNAs and increased SphK activity, with no change in S1P1 expression. Necrosis, inflammation, and hepatocyte regeneration were similar in S1P2-/- and wild-type (WT) mice. However, compared with WT mice, S1P2-/- mice displayed reduced accumulation of hMF, as shown by lower induction of smooth muscle alpha-actin mRNA and lower induction of TIMP-1, TGF-beta1, and PDGF-BB mRNAs, overall reflecting reduced activation of remodeling in response to liver injury. The wound healing response was similar in S1P3-/- and WT mice. In vitro, S1P enhanced proliferation of cultured WT hMF, and PDGF-BB further enhanced the mitogenic effect of S1P. In keeping with these findings, PDGF-BB up-regulated S1P2 and SphK1 mRNAs, increased SphK activity, and S1P2 induced PDGF-BB mRNA. These effects were blunted in S1P2-/- cells, and S1P2-/- hMF exhibited reduced mitogenic and comitogenic responses to S1P. These results unravel a novel major role of S1P2 in the wound healing response to acute liver injury by a mechanism involving enhanced proliferation of hMF.

Abstract
The lysophospholipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a pleiotropic signaling lipid present constitutively in plasma, and secreted locally at elevated concentrations at sites of inflammation. S1P maintains essential variable homeostatic functions in addition to inducing pathophysiology through the activation of five specific high-affinity G-protein-coupled receptors. Therefore, S1P can function as an extracellular rheostat regulating tonic and acutely evoked functions. Although S1P receptors can regulate lymphoid development and lymphocyte trafficking, and different opinions exist on the roles of receptor agonism and functional antagonism in regulating lymphocyte recirculation, this personal perspective highlights the pivotal control points regulated by constitutive and induced S1P receptor tone at vascular endothelial and lymphatic endothelial barriers, through which S1P agonism impacts on both innate and adaptive immunity. We also emphasize how specific, proof-of-concept chemical tools complement genetic approaches by enabling reversible perturbation of the S1P-S1P(1) receptor axis and, thus, clarifying in vivo mechanisms in the absence of developmental compensations.

Abstract
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that signals through a family of five G-protein-coupled receptors, termed S1P(1-5). S1P stimulates growth and invasiveness of glioma cells, and high expression levels of the enzyme that forms S1P, sphingosine kinase-1, correlate with short survival of glioma patients. In this study we examined the mechanism of S1P stimulation of glioma cell proliferation and invasion by either overexpressing or knocking down, by RNA interference, S1P receptor expression in glioma cell lines. S1P(1), S1P(2) and S1P(3) all contribute positively to S1P-stimulated glioma cell proliferation, with S1P(1) being the major contributor. Stimulation of glioma cell proliferation by these receptors correlated with activation of ERK MAP kinase. S1P(5) blocks glioma cell proliferation, and inhibits ERK activation. S1P(1) and S1P(3) enhance glioma cell migration and invasion. S1P(2) inhibits migration through Rho activation, Rho kinase signaling and stress fiber formation, but unexpectedly, enhances glioma cell invasiveness by stimulating cell adhesion. S1P(2) also potently enhances expression of the matricellular protein CCN1/Cyr61, which has been implicated in tumor cell adhesion, and invasion as well as tumor angiogenesis. A neutralizing antibody to CCN1 blocked S1P(2)-stimulated glioma invasion. Thus, while S1P(2) decreases glioma cell motility, it may enhance invasion through induction of proteins that modulate glioma cell interaction with the extracellular matrix.

Abstract
Objective—
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid, which influences migration and proliferation of endothelial cells through activation of S1P receptors and has been shown to support SDF-1 induced migration and bone marrow homing of CD34
+
progenitors.
Methods and Results—
Here, we show that incubation of patient-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) with S1P or its synthetic analog FTY720 improved blood flow recovery in ischemic hind limbs. Likewise, recovery of blood flow was dramatically reduced after induction of hindlimb ischemia in mice deficient for the S1P receptor 3 (S1P
3
). S1P
3
−/−
bone marrow–derived mononuclear cells (BMCs) failed to augment neovascularization after hind limb ischemia. Of note, treatment of BMCs derived from S1P
3
−/−
mice with S1P did not rescue blood flow recovery. Mechanistically, S1P and FTY720 induced phosphorylation of CXCR
4
, activated the Src kinase, and stimulated phosphorylation of JAK2. The contribution of CXCR
4
for S1P-mediated effects was further supported by the findings that S1P preincubation failed to stimulate invasion capacity and in vivo blood flow recovery of BMCs from CXCR
4
+/−
mice. The activation of CXCR
4
was dependent on the Src kinase family as demonstrated by preincubation with the Src inhibitor PP2. The activation of the CXCR
4
signaling by S1P is mediated via the S1P
3
receptor, since S1P-induced Src phosphorylation was abrogated in EPC from S1P
3
−/−
mice.
Conclusions—
S1P agonists might serve as sensitizers of CXCR
4
-mediated signaling and may be applied in clinical progenitor cell therapy to improve EPC or BMC function in patients with coronary artery disease.

Abstract
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a pleiotropic lysophospholipid, regulates signal transduction pathway via G-protein-coupled receptors termed S1P1-5 in several types of the cells including lymphocytes. Higher levels of S1P4 mRNA as well as S1P1 mRNA are expressed in lymphoid tissues such as the spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, and Payer's patches. In contrast to S1P1 that plays an essential role in lymphocyte egress, little is known about the role of S1P4 in immune system. In this study, we found that S1P at 10 to 100 nM significantly induced the cell migration and the significant levels of S1P1 and S1P4 mRNA were expressed in mouse CD4 T cells, D10.G4.1 mouse Th2 cells, and EL-4.IL-2 mouse thymoma cells. In D10.G4.1 and EL-4.IL-2 cells, S1P-induced migration was almost completely inhibited by pretreatment with pertussis toxin, Clostoridium difficile toxin B, and (S)-enantiomer of FTY720-phosphate, a potent agonist at S1P1 and S1P4. The members of the Rho family small GTPase, Cdc42 and Rac were activated by S1P stimulation in these cells. The transfection with dominant negative or constitutively active forms of Cdc42 and Rac revealed that the activation of both Cdc42 and Rac is essential for S1P-induced migration of these cells. The immunoprecipitation assays using CHO cells co-expressing both S1P4 and S1P1 receptors indicated that S1P4 and S1P1 are associated on the cell surface. These results suggest that the association of S1P4 and S1P1 plays an important role in migratory response of mouse T cells toward S1P.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), two small lysophospholipids, are potent inducers of many of the hallmarks of cancer including cell proliferation, survival, migration, invasion, and neovascularization in in vitro and in vivo tumor models. Furthermore, the enzymes metabolizing LPA and S1P and their receptors are aberrant in multiple cancer lineages and exhibit transforming activity altering patterns and targets for metastasis. Several recent studies show the remarkable activity of new chemical genomics and/or potential novel drugs in preclinical models. Combined with the physiologic and pathophysiologic activities of LPA and S1P, these studies suggest the implementation of preclinical and clinical evaluation of LPA and S1P as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
After induction in secondary lymphoid organs, a subset of antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) homes to the bone marrow (BM) and contributes to long-term antibody production. The factors determining secondary lymphoid organ residence versus BM tropism have been unclear. Here we demonstrate that in mice treated with FTY720 or that lack sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor-1 (S1P1) in B cells, IgG ASCs are induced and localize normally in secondary lymphoid organs but they are reduced in numbers in blood and BM. Many IgG ASCs home to BM on day 3 of the secondary response and day 3 splenic ASCs exhibit S1P responsiveness, whereas the cells remaining at day 5 are unable to respond. S1P1 mRNA abundance is higher in ASCs isolated from blood compared to spleen, whereas CXCR4 expression is lower. Blood ASCs also express higher amounts of Kruppel-like factor (KLF)2, a regulator of S1P1 gene expression. These findings establish an essential role for S1P1 in IgG plasma cell homing and they suggest that differential regulation of S1P1 expression in differentiating plasma cells may determine whether they remain in secondary lymphoid organs or home to BM.

Abstract
To evaluate the therapeutic effects of the new synthetic sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator, FTY720, we investigated how FTY720 affects the development of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis and CD4+CD62L+ T cell transfer colitis. BALB/c mice were fed a chow containing 3.5% (wt/wt) DSS to induce colitis. The CD4+CD62L+ T cell transfer colitis was induced by an intraperitoneal injection of CD4+CD62L+ spleen T cells into recipient CB17 SCID mice. The FTY720 was administered by lavage at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg/day. FTY720 was effective in preventing the body weight loss in the DSS-colitis model and the CD4+CD62L+ T cell transfer model. The disease activity index, histological colitis score, and MPO activity were all significantly lower in FTY720-treated mice than in the non-treated mice. Microscopically, mucosal edema, cellular infiltration and epithelial disruption were much more moderate in the FTY720-treated mice than in the non-treated mice. In both colitis models, FTY720 prevented the infiltration of CD4+ T cells into the inflamed colonic lamina propria. In conclusion, the development of DSS-colitis and CD4+CD62L+ T cell transfer colitis were significantly attenuated by FTY720. Since FTY720 is an immunosuppressive product that does not modulate T cell functions, it could be useful in the treatment of IBD patients.
