Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Agonists of vascular endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors are described. Compounds such as FTY720 can be phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase-2 into the phosphorylated forms which serve as sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists. The vascular endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists are employed in methods of treating a mammal for vascular permeability disorders and unwanted vascular endothelial cell apoptosis, and for the growth of new blood vessels. The sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists can be used for the manufacture of a medicament for treating vascular permeability disorders and unwanted vascular endothelial cell apoptosis, and for the growth of new blood vessels.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of treating Alzheimer's disease, comprising administering to a mammal in need of treatment for Alzheimer's disease a therapeutically effective amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 2-amino-2-[2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl]propane-1,3-diol, 2-amino-3-phosphate-2-[2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl]propane-1-ol, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
