Our previous studies have indicated that de novo ceramide synthesis plays a critical role in ethanol-induced apoptotic neurodegeneration in the 7-day-old mouse brain. Here, we examined whether the formation of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a ceramide metabolite, is associated with this apoptotic pathway. Analyses of basal levels of S1P-related compounds indicated that S1P, sphingosine, sphingosine kinase 2, and S1P receptor 1 increased significantly during postnatal brain development. In the 7-day-old mouse brain, sphingosine kinase 2 was localized mainly in neurons. Subcellular fractionation studies of the brain homogenates showed that sphingosine kinase 2 was enriched in the plasma membrane and the synaptic membrane/synaptic vesicle fractions, but not in the nuclear and mitochondrial/lysosomal fractions. Ethanol exposure in 7-day-old mice induced sphingosine kinase 2 activation and increased the brain level of S1P transiently 2-4h after exposure, followed by caspase-3 activation that peaked around 8h after exposure. Treatment with dimethylsphingosine, an inhibitor of sphingosine kinases, attenuated the ethanol-induced caspase-3 activation and the subsequent neurodegeneration. These results indicate that ethanol activates sphingosine kinase 2, leading to a transient increase in S1P, which may be involved in neuroapoptotic action of ethanol in the developing brain.
