N,N-Dimethylsphingosine (also known as DMS) is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase, which has been identified as an inducer of pain in a rat model of chronic pain. Recently was shown, that DMS through anti-parasitic and immunomodulatory actions, can be beneficial in the treatment of chronic phase of T. cruzi infection and was suggested that S1P-activated processes could be possible therapeutic targets for the treatment of Chagas disease cardiomyopathy.

Sample Use Guides

in mice: C57BL/6 mice infected with trypomastigotes (Colombian strain) were treated during the chronic phase of infection (6 months pos-infection) with N, N-Dimethylsphingosine (DMS) (200 µg/Kg/day; 3x week; i.p.).
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
In vitro experiments indicated that N, N-Dimethylsphingosine (DMS) induced a dose-dependent reduction in [3H]-thymidine incorporation and ERK-1/2 activation via a protein kinase C (PKC) independent mechanism with an IC50 value of 12 ± 6 and 15 ± 10 µM respectively. DMS also reduced Akt signalling.
