产品描述:
AUY954 is an orally bioavailable and selective agonist of the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1; EC50 = 1.2 nM for stimulating GTPγS binding to S1P1 in CHO cells).{14536} It is highly selective for the S1P1 receptor with EC50 values of >10,000, 1,210, >1,000, and 340 nM for S1P2, S1P3, S1P4, and S1P5 receptors, respectively. AUY954 reduces circulating lymphocytes and prevents rejection of rat heart allografts. In a rat model of experimental autoimmune neuritis, chronic treatment with AUY954 (10 mg/kg), starting on the day of immunization, almost completely prevents peripheral paralysis.{37100} In the same model, it also decreases T cell, B cell, and macrophage infiltration and perivascular demyelination in sciatic nerves.
