PF-543 Citrate is a novel cell-permeant inhibitor of SphK1 with a K(i) of 3.6 nM, PF-543 is sphingosine-competitive and is more than 100-fold selective for SphK1 over the SphK2 isoform.
Peretinoin, also known as NIK-333 , orally available, acyclic retinoid with potential antineoplastic and chemopreventive activities. Peretinoin binds to and activates nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RAR), which in turn recruit coactivator proteins and promote, with other transcriptional complexes, the transcription of target genes. As a result, this agent may modulate the expression of genes involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and apoptosis of both normal and tumor cells.
MHP (Methyl caprooyl tyrosinate) is an activator of sphingosine kinase (SPHK1), and significantly stimulates CAMP mRNA and protein production. MHP (Methyl caprooyl tyrosinate) enhances antimicrobial defense and innate immunity.
SKI-178 is a sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) inhibitor (IC50 = 0.1-1.8 μM). Induces CDK1-dependent apoptosis in human acute myeloid leukemia cell lines. Active in vivo.
