Popis: Amiselimod (MT-1303) is a novel sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor-1 (S1P1 receptor) modulator with a more favorable cardiac safety profile than other S1P1 receptor modulators. MT-1303 phosphate (MT-1303-P), an active metabolite of MT-1303, exhibits S1P1 receptor agonism at a lower EC50 value than other S1P1 receptor modulators currently being developed. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of MT-1303 and its mode of action in chronic colitis using an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) model. Oral administration of MT-1303 (0.3 mg/kg) once daily for 3 days to mice almost completely abolished S1P1 receptor expression on CD4+ T cells from mesenteric lymph nodes, which corresponded to a marked decrease in CD4+ T cell count in peripheral blood, indicating that MT-1303-P acts as a functional antagonist of the S1P1 receptor. The potential benefit of MT-1303 for IBD was assessed using immunodeficient SCID mice with chronic colitis induced by adoptive transfer of CD4+CD45RBhigh T cells from BALB/c mice. An oral dose of 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg MT-1303 administered daily one week after the cell transfer inhibited the development of chronic colitis with an efficacy comparable to that of an anti-mTNF-α mAb (250 μg/mouse). In addition, MT-1303 administration significantly reduced the number of infiltrating Th1 and Th17 cells into the lamina propria of the colon in colitis mice. Our results suggest that MT-1303 acts as a functional antagonist of the S1P1 receptor on lymphocytes, regulates lymphocyte trafficking, and inhibits infiltration of colitogenic Th1 and Th17 cells into the colon to inhibit the development of chronic colitis.
