malfunction | sphingosine kinase-1 silencing decreases the expression of various immunosuppressive factors in the tumor microenvironment to limit regulatory T cell infiltration | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | sphingosine kinase-1 is a key regulator of anti-tumor immunity. Increased expression of the enzyme in tumor cells is significantly associated with shorter survival in metastatic melanoma patients treated with anti-programmed cell death protein-1 | Homo sapiens |
