Product Description

Fingolimod (formerly FTY720; FTY-720; FTY 720; trade names Gilenia and Gilenya), an approved medication for treating Multiple sclerosis, is a potent S1P (sphingosine 1-phosphate) antagonist with anticancer activity. It inhibits S1P with an IC50 of 0.033 nM in K562 and NK cells. It is a folk medicine emerged from Fungi. Fingolimod was firstly found to be a therapeutic agent in organ transplantation. It plays the role in MS treatment through receptor-mediated actions both on the immune system and in the CNS. Fingolimod is used to treat multiple sclerosis, and has antineoplastic activity.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Before surviving with NK cells, monocyte-derived immature dendritic cells (iDCs) were exposed to various doses of S1P for variable amounts of time. In these dishes, autologous or allogeneic iDCs that were exposed to 0.2–20 μM S1P for four hours considerably shielded the NK cells. For autologous iDCs and allogeneic iDCs, the IC50 values for S1P were determined to be 160 nM and 34 nM, respectively. Subsequently, fingolimod or SEW2871 at varying doses were able to counteract the inhibitory effect of S1P, with IC50 values of 173 or 15 nM, respectively [1]. It has been observed that fungiolimod causes LPA to be synthesized by preventing lysophospholipase automobility in cells. An important component of axonal development, axonal cAMP concentration, showed a strong correlation with fingolim therapy. Furthermore, fingolimod dramatically lowered the nerve center's LPA levels. Myelin thickness improvements are linked to PF-8380 therapy [2].
ln Vivo
Fourteen days after extrusion, fingolimod therapy led to a notable increase in nerves in wild-type C57BL/6 nozzles. On the other hand, T-deficient B-deleted Foxn1-/-nozzles treated with fingolimod demonstrated enhanced nerve regeneration. Though the average rate of nerve growth in Foxn1-/- nozzles treated with Fingolimod and control Foxn1-/- nozzles suggested that T deficit affects nerve regeneration. Possibility of a role, although only Foxn1-/-treated mice significantly outperformed C57BL/6 and fared better in functional examination [2]. Ex vivo radioactive autobinding was used to quantify the amount of 18F-GE180 tracer binding that occurred after animals treated with fingolimod for 28 days. The results showed that the binding potential of 18F-GE180 was significantly reduced (P<0.0001) after treatment with fingolimod.

  • 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)
