Etrasimod arginine

Uses

Etrasimod arginine is an orally available S1P receptor modulator that is a potent full agonist of the S1P1 receptor and has partial agonist activity at S1P4. Etrasimod arginine reduces inflammation in a CD4+CD45RBhigh T cell-transferred mouse colitis model[1].

Biological Activity

Etrasimod arginine is an orally available, potent, and selective agonist of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptors 1 (S1PR1). Also, it acts as a partial agonist of S1PR4,5. Etrasimod arginine induces reductions in lymphocyte counts in mice. It is acting as immunosuppressive agents.
