摘要
The enzyme sphingosine kinase (SK) catalyzes the formation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid that acts extracellularly on G protein-coupled receptors of the S1P(1)/EDG-1 subfamily. Although S1P is formed in the cytosol of various cells, S1P release is not understood and is controversial because this lipid mediator is also regarded as a second messenger. In this report, we describe the existence of an extracellular S1P-generating system in vascular endothelial cells. Endothelial cells release SK constitutively and form S1P in the range of receptor stimulation. Levels of sphingosine but not ATP in the extracellular environment are rate-limiting. Treatment of endothelial cells with small interfering RNA for SK-1 transcript specifically inhibited SK export, and SK-1-transfected human embryonic kidney 293 cells exhibited enhanced release of SK-1. The export of SK-1 is constitutive and is inhibited by cytochalasin D and treatment at 4 degreesC but not by brefeldin A or nocodazole, suggesting that a nonclassical secretory pathway that requires the actin cytoskeleton dynamics is involved. Because S1P regulates angiogenesis and vascular maturation, we overexpressed SK-1 using an adenoviral vector in vivo in the Matrigel system of angiogenesis. Overexpression of SK-1 resulted in enhanced release of SK activity and induced angiogenesis and vascular maturation. These findings suggest that SIP is made in the extracellular milieu and that extracellular export of SK contributes to the action of S1P in the vascular system.
