General description

Sphingosine-d7 is a deuterated derivative of sphingosine. Sphingosine is an important bioactive sphingolipid metabolite. It is a 18-carbon amino alcohol derived from sphingomyelin. Sphingosine contains an unsaturated hydrocarbon chain.

Application

Sphingosine-d7 has been used as an internal standard in liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry for quantitative analysis of sphingolipids in biological samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sphingosine negatively regulates cell proliferation and induces apoptosis. It has an ability to regulate the activities of phospholipases, protein kinases, ion channels, cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB-1) receptors and steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1) receptors. Sphingosine acts as a precursor for ceramide synthesis.

The 1-deoxysphingolipids (1-deoxySLs) are atypical sphingolipids (SLs) that are formed when serine palmitoyltransferase condenses palmitoyl-CoA with alanine instead of serine during SL synthesis. The 1-deoxySLs are toxic to neurons and pancreatic β-cells. Pathologically elevated 1-deoxySLs cause the inherited neuropathy, hereditary
