Abstract

VLCFAs (very-long-chain fatty acids) are the most abundant fatty acids in myelin. Hence, during demyelination or aging, glia are exposed to higher levels of VLCFA than normal. We report that glia convert these VLCFA into sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) via a glial-specific S1P pathway. Excess S1P causes neuroinflammation, NF-κB activation, and macrophage infiltration into the CNS. Suppressing the function of S1P in fly glia or neurons, or administration of Fingolimod, an S1P receptor antagonist, strongly attenuates the phenotypes caused by excess VLCFAs. In contrast, elevating the VLCFA levels in glia and immune cells exacerbates these phenotypes. Elevated VLCFA and S1P are also toxic in vertebrates based on a mouse model of multiple sclerosis (MS), experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Indeed, reducing VLCFA with bezafibrate ameliorates the phenotypes. Moreover, simultaneous use of bezafibrate and fingolimod synergizes to improve EAE, suggesting that lowering VLCFA and S1P is a treatment avenue for MS.

  • VLCFA accumulation in OLs is noxious to the CNS, as OLs can transport S1P to axons.

    “In the fly brain, increased S1P—not VLCFA accumulation per se—triggers direct axonal loss, stimulation of immune cells, and neuroinflammation [273], meaning that VLCFA accumulation in OLs is noxious to the CNS, as they can transport S1P to axons [273].”

    From Revisiting the Pathogenesis of X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (2025) · cites this paper as [273]

    The Results section, “S1P is transported from glia to neuron” (page not provided), reports that S1P produced in fly glia reaches neurons. The Discussion, “VLCFA toxicity in glia” (page not provided), notes that oligodendrocytes express genes in the S1P pathway. The paper does not establish that oligodendrocytes specifically transport S1P to axons, so that part of the citing sentence is an extrapolation. (LLM, conf=0.87)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Elevated S1P is also toxic in vertebrates.

    “Elevated S1P is also toxic in vertebrates [273].”

    From Revisiting the Pathogenesis of X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (2025) · cites this paper as [273]

    The Results section, “S1P induces the demise of neurons” (page unavailable), reports that humans with SGPL1 loss have elevated S1P and neurologic phenotypes. The paper’s experimental evidence that elevated S1P causes toxicity comes from flies, however; the human association does not establish that elevated S1P itself is toxic in vertebrates. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • In Drosophila, increased S1P-not VLCFA accumulation per se-triggers direct axonal loss, stimulation of immune cells, and neuroinflammation.

    From Revisiting the Pathogenesis of X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (2025) · cites this paper as [273]

    The Introduction and the Discussion’s “Immune activation and neuroinflammation” section report that elevated glial S1P is toxic to neurons and drives immune activation, macrophage recruitment, and neuroinflammation in flies, rather than VLCFA accumulation alone. The copy does not establish direct axonal loss in flies: its reference to axonal damage concerns inflammatory responses during MS. It shows S1P transfer from fly glia to neurons, not specifically from oligodendrocytes to axons. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
