ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Sgpl1-/- mice recapitulated the main characteristics of the human disease with abnormal adrenal and renal morphology
  • S1P lyase deficiency in mice causes a severe, lethal phenotype
  • Sgpl1-deficient mice have low numbers of lymphocytes and high numbers of neutrophils in their blood
