Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) is a G-protein coupled receptor for the bioactive lysosphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). S1PR1 belongs to the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor subfamily comprising five members (S1PR1-5). It has prominent roles in regulating endothelial cell cytoskeletal structure, cell migration, immunomodulation, vasculogenesis during embryogenesis, T cell egress and Multiple sclerosis. This review is addressing the role of S1PR1 in tumorigenesis and therapeutic opportunities to target S1PR1 in cancer. |
