Sphinganine is a lipid of Sphingolipids (SP) class. Sphinganine is associated with abnormalities such as Sphingolipidoses, CLEFT LIP, CONGENITAL HEALED, Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 4, Morphologically altered structure and Atherosclerosis. The involved functions are known as Transcription, Genetic, Signal, Muscle Contraction, biological adaptation to stress and Gene Expression. Sphinganine often locates in Tissue membrane, Membrane, Protoplasm, Plasma membrane and Cytoplasmic. The associated genes with Sphinganine are SLC33A1 gene, HM13 gene, P4HTM gene, SPHK1 gene and SPHK2 gene. The related lipids are Sphingolipids, Phosphatidylserines, Sterols, Fatty Acids and inositolphosphorylceramide. The related experimental models are Mouse Model and Knock-out.
To understand associated biological information of Sphinganine, we collected biological information of abnormalities, associated pathways, cellular/molecular locations, biological functions, related genes/proteins, lipids and common seen animal/experimental models with organized paragraphs from literatures.
Sphinganine is suspected in Pulmonary Edema, Morphologically altered structure, Infection, HIV Infections, Pulmonary Hypertension, Exanthema and other diseases in descending order of the highest number of associated sentences.
