SGPL1₃₂₁ mutation: one main trigger for invasiveness of pediatric alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a sphingolipid with second messenger properties, is a main regulator of various cellular processes including lymphocyte cell trafficking, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and survival. High S1P concentrations and deficiencies in S1P degradation have been associated with cancer cell progression, their directed chemoattraction and promotion of chemo-resistance mechanism. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane localized enzyme sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SGPL1) has a key role in prevention of S1P overstimulation in tumor cells by its irreversible S1P degradation activity. In this paper we demonstrated a SGPL1 overexpression and mislocalization in pediatric alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (RMA) cells. Moreover, a homozygous point mutation from A to G at position 3
