Figure Lengend Snippet: ORMDLs reduction does not correlate with phosphorylated sphingolipid levels and is unaffected by direct dhS1P or S1P treatment. (A) Quantification of phosphorylated sphingolipids by LC‐ESI‐MS/MS in HEK293 cells treated with low or high concentrations of myriocin, FB 1 , or their combination, (B) together with relative quantification of ORMDLs, SPTLC1, SPTLC2, and phosphorylated AKT (S473) protein levels. (C) Analysis of ORMDLs, SPTLC1, SPTLC2, and the pAKT S473 /AKT ratio in HEK293 cells following a 6‐h desensitization period and subsequent 30‐ or 60‐min stimulation with dhS1P or S1P. In both (A) and (B), protein levels were normalized to total protein loading based on Ponceau S staining. (D) Representative time‐lapse images of HEK293 cells showing morphological responses to dhS1P or S1P stimulation. Scale bar: 100 μm. Data in (A‐C) are presented as geometric means ± GSEM ( N = 3). Statistical significance was assessed by one‐way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test. Significance levels: p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**), p < 0.001 (***), p < 0.0001 (****); n.s., not significant.
Article Snippet: Briefly, 50 μL of homogenate was transferred to a 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube (Cat# 780420, Brand GmbH, Wertheim, Germany), mixed with 25 μL of MilliQ water, and loaded with internal standards: 50 ng dhS1P d17:0 (Cat# 860655), 50 ng S1P d17:1 (Cat# 860641), and 25 ng C1P d18:1/C12:0 (Cat# 860531), each from Avanti Polar Lipids, dissolved in 5 μL of chloroform/methanol solution (2:1, v/v).
