Human SPHK1 (Sphingosine Kinase 1) ELISA Kit

Human SPHK1 (Sphingosine Kinase 1) ELISA Kit

The Human (SPHK1) Sphingosine Kinase 1 ELISA Kit measures Sphingosine Kinase 1 in samples. The plate has been pre-coated with Human SPHK1 antibody. SPHK1 present in the sample is added and binds to antibodies coated on the wells. And then biotinylated Human SPHK1 Antibody is added and binds to SPHK1 in the sample. Then Streptavidin-HRP is added and binds to the Biotinylated SPHK1 antibody. After incubation unbound Streptavidin-HRP is washed away during a washing step. Substrate solution is then added and color develops in proportion to the amount of Human SPHK1. The reaction is terminated by addition of acidic stop solution and absorbance is measured at 450 nm.

Background Catalyzes the phosphorylation of sphingosine to form sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP), a lipid mediator with both intra- and extracellular functions. Also acts on D-erythro-sphingosine and to a lesser extent sphinganine, but not other lipids, such as D,L-threo-dihydrosphingosine, N,N-dimethylsphingosine, diacylglycerol, ceramide, or phosphatidylinositol (PubMed: 20577214, PubMed: 23602659, PubMed: 29662056, PubMed: 24929359, PubMed: 11923095). In contrast to proapoptotic SPHK2, has a negative effect on intracellular ceramide levels, enhances cell growth and inhibits apoptosis (PubMed: 16118219). Involved in the regulation of inflammatory response and neuroinflammation. Via the product sphingosine 1-phosphate, stimulates TRAF2 E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, and promotes activation of NF-kappa-B in response to TNF signaling leading to IL17 secretion (PubMed: 20577214). In response to TNF and in parallel to NF-kappa-B activation, negatively regulates RANTES induction through p38 MAPK signaling pathway (PubMed: 23935096). Involved in endocytic membrane trafficking induced by sphingosine, recruited to dilate endosomes, also plays a role on later stages of endosomal maturation and membrane fusion independently of its kinase activity (PubMed: 28049734, PubMed: 24929359). In Purkinje cells, seems to be also involved in the regulation of autophagosome-lysosome fusion upon VEGFA (PubMed: 25417698). Has serine acetyltransferase activity on PTGS2/COX2 in an acetyl-CoA dependent manner. The acetyltransferase activity increases in presence of the kinase substrate, sphingosine. During neuroinflammation, through PTGS2 acetylation, promotes neuronal secretion of specialized preresolving mediators (SPMs), especially 15-R-lipoxin A4, which results in an increase of phagocytic microglia.
