    These results suggest that p53 mediates DDR and exerts its tumor suppressive role in part by regulating the expression of ACER2, which in turn regulates the bioactive sphingolipid lipids.

    Tumor suppressor p53 links ceramide metabolism to DNA damage response through alkaline ceramidase 2.

    Consistently, forced expression of p53 significantly stimulated ACER2 transcription. Notably, p53-mediated autophagy and apoptosis were markedly enhanced by ACER2. Depletion of the essential autophagy gene ATG5 revealed that ACER2-induced autophagy facilitates its effect on apoptosis.

    Alkaline ceramidase 2 is a novel direct target of p53 and induces autophagy and apoptosis through ROS generation.

    Results suggest that up-regulation of the ACER2/DHS pathway mediates the cytotoxicity of 4-HPR in tumor cells and that up-regulating or activating ACER2 may improve the anti-cancer activity of 4-HRR and other DHC-inducing agents.

    Alkaline ceramidase 2 (ACER2) and its product dihydrosphingosine mediate the cytotoxicity of N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)retinamide in tumor cells.
