Notes: Laquinimod is an orally bioavailable immunomodulator.{40911} It induces expression of genes related to antigen presentation and inflammatory pathways in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) when used at a concentration of 0.1 μM.{40912} In a mouse model of acute autoimmune encephalomyelitis (aEAE), laquinimod (5 mg/kg per day) decreases the severity of symptoms by 91.4%, and it decreases the number of relapses in a mouse model of chronic EAE (crEAE).{40911} It decreases T cell and macrophage density and demyelination in the spinal cord of EAE mice compared to non-treated controls when administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg per day.{40913} Laquinimod (12.5 and 25 mg/kg per day) decreases inflammatory lesions and demyelination in the sciatic nerve in a rat model of experimental autoimmune neuritis (EAN).{40914} Laquinimod (25 mg/kg per day) activates gene expression in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway in splenocytes from EAE mice with no effect in AhR knockout mice.{40915}
