S1PR1 and neoplasm: In a previous study by Liu, STAT3 was co-localized with S1PR1 in the tumor cells of a few ABC DLBCL tissues, and the inhibition of S1PR1 with FTY720 or S1PR1 shRNA successfully suppressed STAT3 activity and tumor cell growth in vitro and in an in vivo murine lymphoma model [18].
