Formal total synthesis of (-)-FK506
FK506 (2)* was isolated in 1987 by Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Co. in Japan from a strain of Streptomyces tsukubanesis (no. 9993). FK506 has been shown to be more potent than Cyclosporin A (1, CsA), the only anti-rejection drug currently used.

The immunosuppressant FK506 inhibits amino acid import in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The immunosuppressants cyclosporin A, FK506, and rapamycin inhibit growth of unicellular eukaryotic microorganisms and also block activation of T lymphocytes from multicellular eukaryotes. In vitro, these compounds bind and inhibit two different types of

Tacrolimus (FK506) Cerebral Blindness Following Translplantation
Tacrolimus (FK506) is an immunosuppressant agent in use since 1984 to prevent graft rejection following transplantation. It is presumed similar to cyclosporine in its mode of action and its toxicity.
