Sphingosine (Sph) is emerging as an intracellular regulator of cellular differentiation and apoptosis (Ohta, et al., Cancer Res., 55, 691-697, 1995). We have recently found that both Sph and its methylated derivative N,N-dimethylsphingosine (DMS) inhibit mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity

The natural product D-erythro-sphingosine and synthetic racemic dihydrosphingosines were examined for their abilities to self-assemble into high-axial-ratio microstructures. When precipitated from methanol/water solution, D-erythro-sphingosine formed a viscoelastic gel composed of 50-nm diameter flexible fibers. These are 'cochleate cylinders' composed of

The immunomodulatory glycolipid α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) binds to CD1d and exhibits potent activity as a ligand for invariant CD1d-restricted natural killer-like T cells (iNKT cells). Structural analogues of α-GalCer have been synthesised to determine which components are required for CD1d presentation
