Lifitegrast sodium
Based on 11 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Lifitegrast (SAR 1118) sodium is a potent integrin antagonist. Lifitegrast sodium blocks the binding of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) to lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1), interrupting the T cell-mediated inflammatory cycle. Lifitegrast sodium inhibits Jurkat T cell attachment to ICAM-1 with an IC50 of 2.98 nM. Lifitegrast sodium can be used for researching dry eye disease.

Lifitegrast (SAR 1118) inhibits T cell-mediated inflammation by blocking the binding of two important cell surface proteins (lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 and intercellular adhesion molecule 1), thus lessening overall inflammatory responses[1].
Lifitegrast strongly inhibits Jurkat T cell attachment to ICAM-1 with an IC50 of 2.98 nM[1].
