Quantification of sphingosine and sphinganine from crude lipid extracts by HPLC electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry
Sphingosine (SPH) comprises the backbone of sphingolipids and is known as a second messenger involved in the modulation of cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. The currently available methods for the quantification of SPH are, in part, complicated, time-consuming, insensitive, or unselective...
