Abstract:
:Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid metabolite that is known to mediate diverse cellular responses including cell growth, survival, and migration. Most of these effects have been attributed to its binding to a specific subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), namely S1P(1-5). Recent studies have suggested that S1P also plays a prominent role in the contraction of various types of smooth muscle. This review provides a brief overview of its role in this process and also highlights how S1P-dependent signaling serves as an important regulator of smooth muscle contraction.

abstract::Somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) are known to mediate diverse cellular responses. Most target cell express more than one SSTR isoform, making it difficult to define the signalling pathway used by individual receptor subtypes.
