Product Description
Siponimod (BAF-312) hemifumarate is a potent, selective sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator. Siponimod hemifumarate is more selective for S1P1 and S1P5 receptors than S1P2, S1P3 and S1P4 (EC50 of 0.39, 0.98, >10000, >1000 and 750 nM, respectively). Siponimod hemifumarate may be used in multiple sclerosis (MS) research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Siponimod, also known as BAF312, is a strong and selective S1P receptor agonist that shows >1000-fold selectivity over S1P2, S1P3, and S1P4 receptors. Its EC50 values are 0.39 nM and 0.98 nM for S1P1 and S1P5 receptors, respectively. 91% of S1P1 receptors are promoted to prominently internalize by BAF312 (1 h at 1 μM).

ln Vivo
BAF312 suppresses encephalomyelitis (EAE) in rats effectively by internalizing S1P1 receptors and making them immune to the lymph node egress signal. When administered as a preventive or therapeutic dose in mice at 0.3 mg/kg, BAF312 significantly lowers clinical scores.
Enzyme Assay
After the cells are homogenized, they are centrifuged for 30 minutes at 4°C at 26900 × g. In 20 mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, and 0.1% fat-free BSA, membranes are re-suspended at a protein concentration of 2-3 mg/mL. Membranes (75 mg protein/mL in 50 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 20 μg/mL saponin and 0.1% fat-free BSA; pH 7.4), 5 mg/mL with a wheat-germ agglutinin-coated scintillation proximity assay-bead, and 10 μM GDP for 10–15 min) are used in the GTPγ[35S] binding technique. 200 pM GTPγ[35S] is added to initiate the GTPγ[35S]-binding reaction. Following 120 minutes at room temperature, the plates undergo a 10-minute 300 × g centrifugation before being tallied.
Cell Assay
Analysis of CHO cells using flow cytometry reveals antagonist-mediated internalization of S1P1 receptors. An agonist is added to standard culture medium and Myc-tag hS1P1 cells are incubated for 1 hour at 37°C. The cells are then washed with PBS. While one aliquot is left in culture medium (without an agonist) at 37°C for three hours, the other is kept on ice for three hours (or twelve hours). First, the cells are incubated for 60 minutes at 4°C with either 4 μg/mL monoclonal mouse anti-C-myc IgG1 antibody or isotype control mouse IgG1. Next, they are incubated with 1 μg/mL of goat anti-mouse secondary conjugates that have been labeled with Alexa488, which is a fluorescent dye. Using 10,000 viable cells per sample, the cells are measured using flow cytometry.
Animal Protocol
Suspended in 1% aqueous carboxy-methylcellulose; 0.03, 0.3 and 3 mg/kg; oral givage

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
