ENPP7 is a member of the ecto-nucleotide pyrophosphatase/ phosphodiesterase (NPP) family with specific activity against lipids with positively charged phosphocholine headgroup including sphingomyelin, lysophosphatidylcholine and platelet activating factor (PAF).
It hydrolyzes sphingomyelin to generate ceramide, a potent antiproliferative and proapoptotic molecule.
It hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine to monoglyceride and therefore competes with lysophospholipase D to reduce the formation of lysophosphatidic acid, a potent factor for inflammation and angiogenesis.
It hydrolyses PAF to 1-0-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol and inhibits PAF-induced inflammatory responses.
ENPP7 has been proposed as a tumor suppressor protein.
In addition, ENPP7 may influence cholesterol absorption by hydrolyzing sphingomyelin in the intestinal lumen and on the apical surface of microvilli, as the levels of sphingomyelin in the intestinal tract affect cholesterol absorption.
