Since blood platelets release sphingosine 1-phosphate (Sph-1-P) upon activation, it is
important to examine the effects of this bioactive lipid on vascular endothelial cell functions
from the viewpoint of platelet-endothelial cell interactions. In the present study, we examined
Sph-1-P-stimulated signaling pathways related to human umbilical vein endothelial cell
(HUVEC) motility, with a special emphasis on the cytoskeletal docking protein Crk-
associated substrate (Cas). Sph-1-P stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas, which was …
