The sphingolipid metabolite sphingosine-1-phosphate has emerged as a new bioactive molecule involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, survival, and chemotaxis as well as angiogenesis and embryogenesis. These effects are mediated either via G-protein-coupled receptors or through intracellular actions. The most prominent sources of sphingosine-l-phosphate are human platelets suggesting its potential role in wound healing. In agreement with a positive function on reconstruction of wounded skin, we identified sphingosine-1-phosphate as a potent chemoattractant for keratinocytes as well as an activator of extracellular matrix production by fibroblasts. An unexpected finding is a strong cell growth arrest of keratinocytes after exposure to sphingosine-1-phosphate, as keratinocyte proliferation is critical for re-epithelialization of the wound. Most interestingly, the anti-proliferative effect of sphingosine-1-phosphate is not a result of cytotoxicity or apoptosis as sphingosine-1-phosphate even protects these cells from programmed cell death. Moreover, sphingosine-1-phosphate enhances differentiation of keratinocytes. To investigate further by which signaling pathway cell growth inhibition is mediated expression of the mRNA of all sphingosine-l-phosphate receptors (S1P(1-5)) was identified. 1 (Edg 1), 2 (Edg 5), 3 (Edg 3), 4 (Edg 6), and 5 (Edg 8) mRNA in keratinocytes was identified. As demonstrated in guanosine 5-[gamma-S-35] triphosphate-gammaS binding assays, these G-protein-coupled receptors are functional at nanomolar concentrations. As the anti-proliferative effect of sphingosine-1-phosphate is only partially inhibited in the presence of pertussis toxin, it was investigated if intracellular actions are also involved. Microinjections of sphingosine-1-phosphate in keratinocytes also reduce proliferation suggesting that both sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors as well as intracellular actions mediate sphingosine-1-phosphate-induced cell growth arrest.
