Background: ENPP-7/Alk-SMase

ENPP7 (ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 7), also known as alkaline sphingomyelinase (Alk-SMase) is expressed in the intestines and in bile (1). It shares 30-36% homology with the members of the nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterese (NPP) family while sharing no similarities with neutral or acid SMase (2). Its main function is the digestion of dietary sphingomyelin by hydrolyzing sphingomyelin into ceramide and phosphorylcholine. ENPP7 is reported to hydrolyse and inactivate platelet-activating factor (PAF) by a phospholipase C-type activity (3). Studies show a decrease in ENPP7 activity in human colorectal adenocarcinomas and human colorectal carcinomas, which indicate a potential role of ENPP7 in human colon cancer (4, 5).
