Scientific summary

Sphingosine is the fundamental building block of sphingolipids. These analogues carry modified chain lengths or functional groups intended for precise modulation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signalling — a pathway studied in autoimmune disease research, including multiple sclerosis models, and in tumour angiogenesis.

How they are used

As a defined series rather than single compounds: varying one structural feature at a time across the set is what makes a structure–activity relationship visible in an S1P assay.

Applications

  • S1P pathway modulation studies
  • Multiple sclerosis research models
  • Angiogenesis research
  • Biomedical research tool compounds

Common questions

How does an engagement start?
With a free 30-minute discovery call. We establish whether there is a fit and what the right next step is. Nothing is committed at that point.
Can we sign an NDA before we describe our project?
Yes. Tick the NDA box on the inquiry form and we arrange it before any disclosure.
Are the prices on this site binding?
No. They are indicative ranges so that you can size a project before contacting us. Final terms are negotiated per scope.
How quickly do you reply?
Every inquiry is acknowledged within one working day and answered by the responsible group leader within three.
What happens if you cannot help?
We say so, early, and where we can we point you to someone who can. A negative feasibility answer delivered quickly is a useful result.
