Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a lysophospholipid signaling molecule that regulates important biological functions in both intracellular and extracellular compartments. It interacts with five G protein-coupled receptors subtypes (S1PR(1-5)) to generate multiple downstream signaling. Activation of S1PR1 has been validated to be involved in the process of immune modulation. Fingolimod (FTY720), the novel S1PR1 agonist, has been approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis in clinical trials. The study towards discovery of selective S1PR1 agonists has become hot spot for immunological diseases. This article summarized the research progress of S1PR1 agonists, emphasizing their structure types, structure-activity relationship and direction of development.

Huntington's disease (HD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by severe motor deficits, cognitive decline and psychiatric disturbances. An early and significant morphological hallmark of HD is the activation of astrocytes triggered by mutant huntingtin, leading to the release of inflammatory mediators. Fingolimod (FTY), an FDA-approved sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor agonist is used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS), a neuroinflammatory disease, and has shown therapeutic promise in other neurological conditions.

Memory impairment in chronic pain patients is substantial and common, and few therapeutic strategies are available. Chronic pain-related memory impairment has susceptible and unsusceptible features. Therefore, exploring the underlying mechanisms of its vulnerability is essential for developing effective treatments.

Article Synopsis
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common issue in older males, but how it develops is still not fully understood, prompting research into the role of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and its receptors (S1PRs) in the prostate.
  • The study found that S1P and its receptors are highly expressed in the prostate, and S1PR1, S1PR2, and S1PR3 are involved in promoting cell growth, muscle contraction, and reducing inflammation via various cellular pathways.
  • Treatment with S1P and specific receptor agonists led to prostate enlargement in rats, while antagonists of S1PR1 and S1PR3 reduced BPH symptoms

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a lysosphingolipid with antiatherogenic properties, but mechanisms underlying its effects remain unclear. We here investigated atherosclerosis development in cholesterol-rich diet-fed LDL receptor-deficient mice with high or low overexpression levels of S1P receptor 1 (S1P1) in macrophages. S1P1-overexpressing macrophages showed increased activity of transcription factors PU.

Macrophages possess M1/M2 polarization, which perform an essential role in immunology and inflammation studies. However, few studies have investigated the specific molecules involved in the polarization process beyond its induction and characterization. Here, we determined that the molecule S1PR1 regulates M1 polarization in macrophages and that the surface marker CD83 is involved in this process.
