General description

Lyso-sphingomyelin (Lyso SM) (d17:1), is an amphiphilic lysophospholipid with a long-chain sphingosine (C17 base) and a hydrophilic phosphorylcholine. Lyso SM, also known as sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) is a de-acylated form of sphingomyelin, found in blood plasma.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lyso-sphingomyelin (Lyso SM) is a vital lipid mediator, with an ability to regulate cell proliferation, migration, differentiation, metabolism and apoptosis. It exhibits various functions in cardiovascular system, immune system, central nervous system and skin. Increased concentration of Lyso SM has been observed in few disease states such as atopic dermatitis, Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) and cancer.

Sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) is a bioactive sphingolipid in blood plasma that is metabolized from the hydrolysis of the membrane sphingolipid. SPC maintains low levels in the circulation under normal conditions, which makes studying its origin and action difficult. In recent years
