SLM6031434 is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase 2 (SPHK2) (Ki = 0.4 μM for the recombinant mouse enzyme).1 It is selective for SPHK2 over SPHK1 (Kis = >20 μM). It decreases sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P; Item No. 62570) and increases sphingosine levels in U937 monocytic leukemia cells in a concentration-dependent manner. SLM6031434 (5 mg/kg) reduces blood S1P levels in Sphk1-/-, but not Sphk2-/-, mice. SLM6031434 also increases blood S1P levels in wild-type mice and rats.
