Because sphingosine (Sph) is actively incorporated into platelets
and rapidly converted to sphingosine 1-phosphate (Sph-1-P), which is
then released extracellularly, it is important to study the effects of
Sph and Sph-1-P on endothelial cells from the viewpoint of
platelet-endothelial cell interaction. In this study, we found that
Sph, as well as ceramide, induces apoptosis in human umbilical vein
endothelial cells (HUVECs). In contrast, Sph-1-P acts as a HUVEC
survival factor; this bioactive lipid was shown to protect HUVECs from
apoptosis induced by the withdrawal of growth factors and to stimulate
HUVEC DNA synthesis. In metabolic studies, [3H]Sph,
incorporated into HUVECs, was converted to [3H]Cer and
further to [3H]sphingomyelin in a time-dependent manner,
whereas [3H]Sph-1-P formation from [3H]Sph
was weak and transient. These findings in HUVECs are very different
from those of platelets, which possess a highly active Sph kinase but
lack Sph-1-P lyase. As a result, platelets abundantly store Sph-1-P,
whereas HUVECs contain much less Sph-1-P. Finally, HUVECs, in contrast
to platelets, failed to release Sph-1-P extracellularly, indicating
that HUVECs themselves are not able to supply the survival factor Sph-1-P, but receive it from activated platelets. Our results suggest that platelets may maintain the integrity of endothelial cells
by incorporating Sph and releasing Sph-1-P.
