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.
