Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a potent sphingolipid mediator produced by sphingosine kinase isoenzymes (SphK1 and SphK2), regulates diverse cellular processes important for breast cancer progression acting in an autocrine and/or paracrine manner. Here we show that SphK1, but not SphK2, increased S1P export from MCF-7 cells. Whereas for both estradiol (E(2)) and epidermal growth factor-activated SphK1 and production of S1P, only E(2) stimulated rapid release of S1P and dihydro-S1P from MCF-7 cells. E(2)-induced S1P and dihydro-S1P export required estrogen receptor-alpha, not GPR30, and was suppressed either by pharmacological inhibitors or gene silencing of ABCC1 (multidrug resistant protein 1) or ABCG2 (breast cancer resistance protein). Inhibiting these transporters also blocked E(2)-induced activation of ERK1/2, indicating that E(2) activates ERK via downstream signaling of S1P. Taken together, our findings suggest that E(2)-induced export of S1P mediated by ABCC1 and ABCG2 transporters and consequent activation of S1P receptors may contribute to nongenomic signaling of E(2) important for breast cancer pathophysiology.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid generated by sphingosine kinases (SphK1/2), initiates different signalling pathways involved in physiological and pathological processes. We previously demonstrated that in rat myometrium at late (day 19) gestation, SphK1 increases the expression of COX2 via S1P generation and release. In rat uterine leiomyoma cells (ELT3), SphK1/S1P axis controls survival and proliferation. In the present study we demonstrate that PDBu activates SphK1 but not SphK2. SphK1 activation requires PKC and MAPK ERK1/2. S1P produced by PDBu is released in the medium. PDBu-induced S1P export is abolished by Ro-318220 and BIM (PKC inhibitors), by U0126 and PD98059 (MEK inhibitors), SKI-II (SphKI/2 inhibitor) and SphK1-siRNA, suggesting the involvement of PKC, ERK and SphK1 respectively. The release of S1P is insensitive to inhibitors of ATP Binding Cassette (ABC)A1 and ABCB1 transporters, but is abolished when ABCC1 transporters are inhibited by MK571 or down-regulated by ABCC1-siRNA. PDBu increases COX2 expression that is blocked by the inhibition of PKC, ERK1/2, SphK1, and when cells are treated with MK571 or transfected with ABCC1-siRNA. The induction of COX2 by the S1P release due to PDBu or by exogenous S1P involves S1P2 receptors coupled to Gi. In myometrium from rat at late gestation, the release of S1P is also strongly reduced when SphK and ABCC1 are inhibited. The data reveal that in rat leiomyoma cells and late pregnant rat myometrium, the release of S1P involves a similar signalling pathway and occurs through ABCC1.
