Cyclosporine nephrotoxicity

Transplantation Proceedings, 2004
The polypeptide immunosuppressant cyclosporine is a prodrug that binds an intracellular immunophilin. The complex cyclosporine-cyclophilin binds and inhibits the phosphatase activity of calcineurin interfering with the dephosphorilation of members of the nuclear factor of activated T cells, which is involved in the regulation of genes encoding many ...

Cyclosporine

Drug Intelligence & Clinical Pharmacy, 1985
Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant used to prevent the rejection of transplanted kidneys, hearts, and livers. Cyclosporine suppresses T-lymphocyte function without causing myelosuppression, and its pharmacokinetics are highly variable. Compared with conventional immunosuppressive drug therapy, both patient and graft survival improved in patients ...

Cyclosporine

Southern Medical Journal, 1986
Cyclosporine is a fungal metabolite increasingly used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ transplantation. It provides immunosuppression primarily through reversible inhibition of T-lymphocytes, without myelotoxicity. Cyclosporine appears to inhibit primary activation of helper cells and to decrease the production of lymphokines by these cells ...

Cyclosporine immunosuppression

American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 1984
The chemistry, pharmacokinetics, mechanism of action, clinical efficacy in organ transplants, adverse effects, and dosage and administration of cyclosporine, a new immunosuppressant, are reviewed. Advice on counseling patients who take the drug is also included. Cyclosporine is a cyclic undecapeptide with a high molecular weight.

Cyclosporine Monitoring

Drug Intelligence & Clinical Pharmacy, 1986
Cyclosporine is an important immunosuppressive agent in organ and bone marrow transplantation. The pharmacokinetics of cyclosporine are quite complex and are complicated by the availability of two assay systems that yield differing results. This article summarizes the views from two major solid organ transplant centers and one bone marrow transplant ...

Cyclosporin A

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1986
Cyclosporin A is a new immunosuppressive agent that selectively affects T helper cells without suppressing the bone marrow. Cyclosporin A has been used primarily to prevent rejection in organ transplantation and acute graft-versus-host disease. Studies suggest that it may be of benefit in psoriasis, pemphigus vulgaris, bullous pemphigoid, Behçet's ...

Cyclosporine nephrotoxicity

Seminars in Nephrology, 2003
After more than 20 years of cyclosporine use its nephrotoxicity remains a significant clinical problem. Cyclosporine-induced renal injury has been described in solid organs recipients and in patients treated for autoimmune diseases. It is manifested in 2 distinct and well characterized forms, acute nephrotoxicity and chronic nephrotoxicity.

The cyclosporins

Folia Microbiologica, 1995
This review presents the progress and some aspects achieved during recent years with cyclosporin sources, chemistry, biological activities, side effects, biosynthesis and metabolism. Although incomplete the results indicate future research trends and some white spots to be studied in the near future to afford unique insights into cell biology and to ...

Cyclosporine Controversies

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1987
Cyclosporine is a potent immunosuppressant with low myelotoxicity. It is approved for use to prevent rejection of kidney, liver, and heart transplants, and is being investigated for possible use for suppression of graft-versus-host disease in patients who have received bone marrow transplants.

Cyclosporine-Induced Anaphylaxis

The Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2000
OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of an anaphylactic reaction after first ingestion of oral cyclosporine capsules (Neoral). CASE SUMMARY: A 73-year-old white woman was admitted for the treatment of metastatic breast carcinoma with an experimental oral paclitaxel solution in combination with cyclosporine capsules.
