Description | Laquinimod (ABR-215062) sodium, an orally available carboxamide derivative, is a potent immunomodulator which prevents neurodegeneration and inflammation in the central nervous system. Laquinimod sodium reduces astrocytic NF-κB activation to protect from Cuprizone-induced demyelination. Laquinimod sodium has the potential for relapsing remitting (RR) and chronic progressive (CP) forms of multiple sclerosis (MS; RRMS or CPMS) as well as neurodegenerative diseases research[1][2][3][4]. |

In Vitro | Laquinimod sodium reverses EAE and inhibits pathogenic T cell immune responses. Laquinimod reverses RR-EAE and inhibits inflammatory T cell responses via a direct effect on myeloid APC. Laquinimod alters myeloid APC subsets and inhibits Th1 and Th17 polarization of myelin-specific T cells. Laquinimod-induced type II (M2) monocytes reverse established EAE[1]. Laquinimod modulates the phenotype of B cells of healthy donors. Laquinimod modulates expression of markers related to regulatory capacity in B cells of RRMS patients. Laquinimod reduces IFNγ cytokine expression in CD4+ T cells[2]. |
In Vivo | Laquinimod sodium treatment inhibits donor myelin-specific T cells from transferring EAE to naive recipient mice. In vivo laquinimod treatment alters subpopulations of myeloid antigen presenting cells (APC) that include a decrease in CD11c+CD11b+CD4+ dendritic cells (DC) and an elevation of CD11bhiGr1hi monocytes[1]. |
