abstract：:Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a lipid-signaling molecule produced by sphingosine kinase in response to a wide number of stimuli. By acting through a family of widely expressed G protein-coupled receptors, S1P regulates diverse physiological processes. Here we examined the role of S1P signaling in neurodegeneration ...
