Description

S1PR3 (sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3) is a member of the endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) family of G protein-coupled receptors. It binds the bioactive lipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and mediates diverse cellular responses including proliferation, migration, cytoskeletal rearrangement, and angiogenesis. S1PR3 is widely expressed and plays critical roles in cardiovascular development, immune cell trafficking, and neural function.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Cardiovascular diseases (e.g., atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction) S1PR3 signaling modulates endothelial barrier function, vascular tone, and inflammatory cell recruitment. Altered expression or activity contributes to vascular pathology. ClinVar, NCBI Gene
Cancer (e.g., breast, ovarian, glioma) S1PR3 promotes tumor cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis via S1P-dependent pathways. Overexpression is associated with poor prognosis. COSMIC, NCBI Gene
Multiple sclerosis S1PR3 on immune cells and glia influences neuroinflammation and demyelination. S1P receptor modulators (e.g., fingolimod) target S1PR3 among others. NCBI Gene, OMIM
Pulmonary fibrosis S1PR3 activation on fibroblasts and endothelial cells contributes to fibrotic remodeling in lung tissue. NCBI Gene

Protein Summary

S1PR3 is a 378-amino acid integral membrane protein with seven transmembrane domains typical of GPCRs. It couples primarily to Gq and Gi proteins, leading to activation of phospholipase C, calcium mobilization, and MAPK/ERK signaling. The receptor is N-glycosylated and undergoes agonist-induced internalization. S1PR3 is critical for vascular development and immune regulation.
