Abstract

Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is an enzyme that converts sphingosine to bioactive sphingosine-1-phosphate. Recent in vitro data suggest a potential role of SphK1 in TNF-alpha-mediated inflammation. Our aims in this study were to determine the in vivo significance of SphK1 in TNF-alpha-mediated chronic inflammation and to define which pathogenic mechanisms induced by TNF-alpha are SphK1 dependent. To pursue these aims, we studied the effect of SphK1 deficiency in an in vivo model of TNF-alpha-induced chronic inflammatory arthritis. Transgenic hTNF-alpha mice, which develop spontaneous inflammatory erosive arthritis beginning at 14-16 wk, were crossed with SphK1 null mice (SphK1(-/-)), on the C57BL6 genetic background. Beginning at 4 mo of age, hTNF/SphK1(-/-) mice had significantly less severe clinically evident paw swelling and deformity, less synovial and periarticular inflammation, and markedly decreased bone erosions as measured quantitatively through micro-CT images. Mechanistically, the mice lacking SphK1 had less articular cyclooxygenase 2 protein and fewer synovial Th17 cells than did hTNF/SphK1(+/+) littermates. Microarray analysis and real-time RT-PCR of the ankle synovial tissue demonstrated that hTNF/SphK1(-/-) mice h...Continue Reading
