Abstract

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a Neurological Disease that leads to severe physical and cognitive disabilities. Drugs used in the treatment of MS vary from small synthetic molecules to large macromolecules such as Antibodies. Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulators are frequently used for the treatment of MS. These medicines prevent the egress of lymphocytes from secondary lymphoid organs leading to immune system suppression. Currently, four S1PR modulators are on the market and several potential drug candidates are in clinical trials for the treatment of MS. These compounds differ in chemical structure, adverse effects, and efficacy points of view. The current article reviews the latest studies on S1PR1 modulators and compares them with other MS drugs in terms of efficacy, tolerability, and safety. A special focus was dedicated to discussing the structure-activity relationships of these compounds and performing a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) analysis to gain better insight into the ligand-receptor interaction mode.
