General description
Sphingosine (d16:1), also known as hexadecasphingosine or hexadecasphing-4-enine, is a minor sphingoid base with 16 carbon atoms. It is one of the major sphingoid bases found in Musca domestica larvae and adults.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Sphingosine is implicated in negative regulation of cell proliferation and stimulation of apoptosis. It has a potential to control the activities of phospholipases, protein kinases, ion channels, cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB-1) receptors and steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1) receptors.

The sphingolipid metabolites ceramide, sphingosine, and sphingosine 1-phosphate contribute to controlling cell proliferation and apoptosis. Ceramide and its catabolite sphingosine act as negative regulators of cell proliferation and promote apoptosis. Conversely, sphingosine 1-phosphate, formed by phosphorylation of sphingosine by a
