Phosphorylation and Action of the Immunomodulator FTY720 Inhibits Vascular Endothelial Cell Growth Factor-induced Vascular Permeability
Open accessAbstract
FTY720, a potent immunosuppressive agent, is phosphorylated in vivo into FTY720-P, a high affinity agonist for sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptors. The effects of FTY720 on vascular cells, a major target of S1P action, have not been addressed. We now report the metabolic activation of FTY720 by sphingosine kinase-2 and potent activation of vascular endothelial cell functions in vitro and in vivo by phosphorylated FTY720 (FTY720-P). Incubation of endothelial cells with FTY720 resulted in phosphorylation by sphingosine kinase activity and formation of FTY720-P. Sphingosine kinase-2 effectively phosphorylated FTY720 in the human embryonic kidney 293T heterologous expression system. FTY720-P treatment of endothelial cells stimulated extracellular signal-activated kinase and Akt phosphorylation and adherens junction assembly and promoted cell survival. The effects of FTY720-P were inhibited by pertussis toxin, suggesting the requirement for Gi-coupled S1P receptors. Indeed, transmonolayer permeability induced by vascular endothelial cell growth factor was potently reversed by FTY720-P. Furthermore, oral FTY720 administration in mice potently blocked VEGF-induced vascular permeability in vivo. These findings suggest that FTY720 or its analogs may find utility in the therapeutic regulation of vascular permeability, an important process in angiogenesis, inflammation, and pathological conditions such as sepsis, hypoxia, and solid tumor growth.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
