Anti-MHC-II (400 μg/injection, produced inhouse by L. Boon) was injected intravenously and Fingolimod/FTY720 (3 mg/kg, Sigma Aldrich) intraperitoneally the day before and just before SWAg footpad injection. In some experiments, FTY720 was injected from 1 day prior to H. polygyrus infection and then daily for 14 days.

To the solution of azido-PEG3-Val-Cit-PAB-PNP (compound 9, BroadPharm, San Diego, CA, USA) (9.2 mg, 0.01 mmol) in 3 mL of tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 1.5 mL of dimethylformamide (DMF) was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) (38.7 mg, 0.3 mmol) at 0 °C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 min. Next, fingolimod, FTY720 (19.3 mg, 0.063 mmol) (Sigma Aldrich, Saint-Louis, MO, USA), which was previously dissolved in a mixed solution of 3 mL of THF and 1.5 mL of DMF, was added at 0 °C and stirred for 5 min under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature (r.t.) overnight. After solvent removal under reduced pressure, the crude mixture was purified by preparative HPLC (0 min: 10% CH3CN, 90% H2O; 20 min: 90% CH3CN; flow of 20 mL/min; all solvents contained 0.1% TFA). The pure fractions were evaporated and lyophilized to afford compound 10 (5 mg, 45%) as a tacky solid. MS (ESI) m/z calcd: 941.5586; found: 942.7114 ([M + H]+) (Figures S6 and S7).

All drugs were administered by intraperitoneal injection (I.P.). FG-7142 (Sigma-Aldrich, #E006-100MG) was used as an anxiolytic drug, and administered as described previously (Evans and Lowry, 2007 (link)) at a final concentration of 5 mg/kg body weight 30 min before behavioral testing. The SphK1 antagonist PF-543 (Cayman Chemicals, #17034) was dissolved in 2% DMSO/PBS 0.01M and administered at a final dosage of 10mg/kg. Fingolimod (FTY-720, Sigma-Aldrich, #SML0700-5MG) was used as an S1P receptor agonist, dissolved in saline solution and administered at a final dosage of 0.1 mg/kg, as described (Deogracias et al., 2012 (link)).

Blocking Lymphocyte Egress with Fingolimod

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blocking the egress of activated lymphocytes from the LNs to the peripheral tissues was achieved through treatment of transplanted animals with the sphingosine-1-phosphate antagonist, fingolimod (FTY720; Sigma-Aldrich), as previously described (64 (link)). Briefly, BMT recipients were injected intraperitoneally with 1.0 mg/kg FTY720 daily, from D+3 to D+7 (experiment terminus); control subjects received an equivalent volume of saline.

Fingolimod Treatment in Animal Study

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Animals were distributed into eight experimental groups (see also Table A1):

Early vehicle-treated males;

Early FTY-treated males;

Early vehicle-treated females;

Early FTY-treated females;

Late vehicle-treated males;

Late FTY-treated males;

Late vehicle-treated females;

Late FTY-treated females.

Fingolimod (FTY720, Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany) was given dissolved in drinking water at a dose of 1 mg/kg bodyweight per day. The animals had a mean uptake between 2.8 mL (late treated males) and 3.5 mL (early treated males) per day from the drinking water. The FTY720 dose in water was corrected according to water consumption in each group. The treatment was administered for 50 days starting at 50 or 125 days of age, respectively, depending on the experimental group (Figure 7). The body weight and water consumption rate of the animals was controlled weekly to monitor potential side effects and to adjust the dose.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
