This paper shows new effects of fingolimod on the immune system beyond its sequestration ability. |
Fingolimod is an effective drug in adults with relapsing–remitting MS and in pediatric forms of the disease. |
Fingolimod negatively regulates Th1 and Th17 differentiation while promoting Th2 differentiation. |
Fingolimod exerts its effects through action on B lymphocytes. |
Fingolimod not only modulates lymphocyte trafficking but is able to modulate the composition of B- and T-cell subsets. |
