Popis: | Colitis-associated cancer (CAC) is one of the most serious complications in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Sphingosine kinase 1 (Sphk1) is a key enzyme in the sphingolipid pathway and has oncogene potential for inducing both initiation and progression of tumors. The aim of this work is to characterize the role of epithelial Sphk1 in mouse colitis and CAC models. We investigated the roles of Sphk1 in CAC by conditional deletion of Sphk1 in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). CAC was induced in both Sphk1ΔIEC/ApcMin/+ and Sphk1IEC/ApcMin/+ mice by administration of 2% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days. Genetic deletion of Sphk1 significantly reduced the number and size of tumors in ApcMin/+ mice. Histologic grade was more severe in Sphk1ΔIEC/ApcMin/+ mice compared with Sphk1IEC/ApcMin/+ mice (invasive carcinoma, 71% versus 13%, p |
