摘要
Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor agonist, FTY720 at oral doses of 0.03 to 1 mg/kg exhibited the prophylactic and therapeutic effect on lupus nephritis spontaneously developed in MRL/lpr mice. The therapeutical administration of FTY720 resulted in a decrease in the number of T cells, especially CD4(+) T cells, infiltrated into kidney as well as reduction of lymphocytes in blood. Moreover, the elevation of Th1 cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression was decreased in kidneys of FTY720-treated group. These results suggest that FTY720 decreases autoreactive Th1 cell infiltration into kidneys by reduction of circulating lymphocytes in blood, and thereby shows a marked therapeutic effect on progressing lupus nephritis of MRL/lpr mice.
