Effects of various agents on [3H]Sph metabolism in HUVECs. HUVECs were incubated with [3H]Sph for 1 minute and then challenged without (C) or with 100 U/mL of IL-1β (IL-1), 1 U/mL of thrombin (Thr), or 1 μmol/L TPA for 20 minutes in the presence of a 1% FCS medium. Lipids were extracted from cells or media and analyzed for [3H]Sph metabolism. Locations of standard lipids are indicated on the left.
