Abstract excerpt
Fingolimod, a sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator, is an oral drug approved for the treatment of active relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). It selectively inhibits the egress of lymphocytes from lymph nodes. We studied the changes in the transcriptome of peripheral blood CD8+ cells to unravel the effects at the molecular level during fingolimod therapy. We separated CD8+ cells from the...
