Hypereosinophilic Syndrome: A Case of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Difficulty
Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a condition with a diverse clinical presentation and prognosis. Due to its rarity, it is often under-recognized. We present a 48-year-old female patient who presented with eosinophilic pneumonia and bullous pemphigoid;

Cyclosporine A (CsA) is a neutral lipophilic compound that was first isolated in the 1970s from the fungal species Tolypocladium inflatum gams. CsA is a cyclic polypeptide that consists of 11 amino acids and that has a molecular weight of 1202 daltons.1 It was found to have potent immunosuppressive properties and was initially used in the late 1970s to

Pitfall in the high-throughput quantification of whole blood cyclosporin A using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]
In a growing number of laboratories the technique of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry is used for the quantification of cyclosporin A in whole blood, employing cyclosporin D as the internal standard. Cyclosporin A is extensively metabolized

The discovery and use of cyclosporine since its inception into clinical use in the late 1970s has played a major role in the advancement of transplant medicine. While it has improved rates of acute rejection and early graft survival, data on long-term survival of renal allografts is less convincing.

CYCLOSPORIN A (SANDIMMUN NEORAL) IN THERAPY FOR PSORIASIS AND PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS
The involvement of immune mechanisms in the pathogenesis of psoriatic arthritis (PA) is noted to give grounds to use immunoactive compounds (disease- modifying agents - basic anti-inflammatory drugs -BAIDs), such as cyclosporin A (CsA), in this disease ...
