Abstract
Ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P), together with other sphingolipids, plays a crucial role in regulating several cell functions. Solid evidence has accumulated that C1P can induce proliferation of some types of cells, regulates inflammation and phagocytosis, has anti-apoptotic properties, and is a potent chemoattractant for variety of cells including stem cells and cancer cells. Unlike most studied peptide-based chemoattractants which show activity in experimental models at supraphysiological concentrations, C1P can activate cell migration within physiological concentration range. Moreover, C1P level may be upregulated in damaged tissues due to injury, ischemia, irradiation, or as a toxic effect of chemotherapy. Therefore, CIP as therapeutic target has important implication for optimizing stem cells mobilization and homing, tissue and organ regeneration, and preventing cancer metastasis.
