Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)
Conditions:
Stigmasterol (also known as Wulzen anti-stiffness factor) is a plant sterol, or phytosterol. Recent investigation discovered that this compound could be new promising anti- Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus agent.
L-erythro-Sphingosine (also known as erythro-Sphingosine, (+)) – is an inactive isomer from the four possible stereoisomers of sphingosine. This isomer can induce dephosphorylation of pRb protein with EC50 = 5 μM. -erythro-Sphingosine is a weak substrate of ceramidase and has shown competitive inhibition properties.

Other
Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)
Targets:
Sphingosine harbors two chiral centers and therefore exhibits four stereoisomers, only one of which, the D-erythro (2S,3R) is known to exist naturally. ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (±)- is a mixture of two isomers: inactive ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (+)- and the active ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (-), also known as D-erythro (2S,3R)-SPHINGOSINE or D-erythro –SPHINGOSINE. It was found, that D-erythro –SPHINGOSINE acts as a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C and of transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7). Besides, was shown, that sphingosine may be efficacious against alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, irrespective of TP53 mutation status. It also could evolve as alternative treatment options for aggressive lymphomas via PKC inhibition, apoptosis, and autophagy.
