Discovery and characterisation of novel anticancer compounds acting on sphingosine kinase

There is a critical need to develop novel anticancer therapeutics. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that sphingosine kinase (SK) is a promising target for the treatment of cancer. There are two SK isoforms, termed SK1 and SK2. SK phosphorylates sphingosine to form sphingosine-1-phosphate which...
