Preeclampsia is a disease that is strongly linked with the risk of stroke and other cardiovascular disease. This is a condition with greater prevalence in the Low and middle income countries of the world especially sub-Saharan Africa, where the morbidity and mortality is reportedly higher. Larger
Lower respiratory tract infections are the most frequent infectious cause of death worldwide[1] and impose a considerable burden on healthcare resources. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid and has both extracellular and intracellular effects in mammalian cells[2-5]. S1P is
Liver resection is an effective treatment for both benign and malignant liver diseases. However, post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is still a life-threatening complication of liver resection. The pathophysiological mechanism of PHLF has not yet been fully studied, and there is still a lack of
Fingolimod (Gilenya®; Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, East Hanover, NJ, USA) is a novel oral disease-modifying therapy that acts as a sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor agonist and reduces the recirculation of lymphocytes to blood and peripheral tissues, including inflammatory lesions.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a potent anti-apoptotic sphingolipid with potent pro-inflammatory actions which are driven in most part by activation of the S1P receptor subtype S1PR158. Biologically active S1P is generated by the phosphorylation of sphingosine, catalyzed by two sphingosine kinases
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammatory demyelinative lesions in central nervous system. Relapsing-Remitting MS is the most common form of the disease observed in 85% of patients. This form presents with acute or sub-acute onset of neurological symptoms
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) design clinical trial, in multiple stroke centers of China. The total sample size will be 98. Patients being treated with standard alteplase bridging and mechanical thrombectomy will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to
The first purpose of this study is to determine whether serum sphingolipid metabolites associate significantly with the weight among type 2 diabetes. 60 patients with diagnosed type 2 diabetes will be recruited. The serum concentrations of sphingolipid metabolites of 20 type 2 diabetic patients with
This study will enroll 87 stroke patients who have been diagnosed with stroke and meet the inclusion criteria.
After successfully meeting initial screening criteria, investigators will contact the family, explain the study, and send a consent form for their review.
After that, patients will be given
BACKGROUND:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a debilitating, progressive neurological disease characterized by inflammation of the central nervous system (CNS), resulting in demyelination and axonal damage (for review see [Compston, 2008]). The clinical course for ~85% of MS patients at diagnosis is a
S1P modulates the AMD-associated processes of angiogenesis, inflammation and fibrosis. A potential strategy for treating choroidal neovascularization associated with AMD is to reduce the biologically available extracellular levels of S1P. iSONEP is highly selective for S1P and binds with picomolar
Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common autosomal recessive disorder at least in western countries, is caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator molecule (CFTR) and affects approximately 40 000 patients in Europe. Most, if not all, CF-patients develop a chronic
