Experimental Cell Line Models for Nephrotoxicity Screening
The aim of the study was to review literature data on cell models for experimental assessment of drug nephrotoxicity in vitro. Because of nephrotoxicity, 2% of new investigational medicinal products are discarded at the stage of preclinical in vivo ...

Cyclosporin a hepatotoxicity in 66 renal allograft recipients [PDF]
Liver functional abnormalities were seen in 13 (19.7%) of 66 recipients of cadaveric renal homografts treated with cyclosporin A and prednisone. However, such presumed hepatotoxicity was a minor problem in the use of cyclosporin A.

Canine liver transplantation under nva cyclosporine versus cyclosporine [PDF]
The immunosuppressive qualities and other features of a new cyclosporine (CsA) analogue, Nva 2-cyclosporine (Nva 2-CsA) were examined using canine orthotopic liver allografts.

Incidence of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients receiving vancomycin with concomitant piperacillin-tazobactam, cefepime, or meropenem [PDF]
Critically ill patients are frequently treated with empirical antibiotic therapy, including vancomycin and -lactams. Recent evidence suggests an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients who received a combination of vancomycin and ...
