K6PC-5
- Soluble in DMSO
- MF: C19H37NO4
- MW: 343.5
Description
K6PC-5 is an activator of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1/SK1) that increases sphingosine-1-phosphate production. It activates S1P-linked survival signaling and protects osteoblasts from dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in reported studies.
SphK1 converts sphingosine to S1P, a bioactive lipid mediator involved in survival, migration, vascular function and immune signaling. K6PC-5 is useful for studying SphK1/S1P pathway activation in bone, inflammation and cell-survival models.
Key Features
- SphK1 activator
- Increases sphingosine-1-phosphate production
- Induces Akt phosphorylation in cultured osteoblasts
- Protects osteoblasts from dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in reported models
Applications
- SphK1/S1P signaling research
- Osteoblast survival and bone biology studies
- Lipid mediator pathway assays
- Akt-dependent cell-survival research
