Cyclosporin neurotoxicity after chemotherapy.
Contributors: DEW designed the audit, collected and analysed the data, and participated in writing the paper with EHB. EHB provided DEW with the list of subjects to be investigated, discussed core ideas, and participated in writing the paper; she maintains the database of mothers who are hepatitis B positive and advises on appropriate immunisations. EHB will act as guarantor for the paper. Comp...
متن کاملCombined use of cyclosporin A and verapamil in modulating multidrug resistance in human leukemia cell lines.
This study describes the synergistic interaction of two biochemical modulators, cyclosporin A (CyA) and verapamil (Vp), in multidrug-resistant cells, the highly resistant and moderately resistant variants (CEM/VLB 1000 and CEM/VLB 100) of the parental drug-sensitive T-cell leukemia cell line CEM/CCRF. In the absence of either modulator, the 50% inhibitory concentration for Adriamycin in these c...
متن کاملCyclosporin neurotoxicity in cardiac transplant recipients.
Cyclosporin toxicity may produce a wide range of neurological disorders. We report three patients whose neurological problems developed while taking cyclosporin following cardiac transplantation, but resolved rapidly when the drug was discontinued. In two cases, MRI revealed abnormalities which disappeared with clinical recovery. Blood cyclosporin concentrations were not markedly increased, and...
متن کاملIvermectin: does P-glycoprotein play a role in neurotoxicity?
The macrocyclic lactone ivermectin (Mectizan(R)) is widely used for the control of human filarial infections, particularly as a donated product for onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis. In the case of control of lymphatic filariasis in Africa, it is used in combination with donated albendazole. In areas co-endemic for Onchocerciasis and Loa loa, serious adverse reactions have been observed i...
متن کاملRelative Neurotoxicity of Ivermectin and Moxidectin in Mdr1ab (−/−) Mice and Effects on Mammalian GABA(A) Channel Activity
The anthelmintics ivermectin (IVM) and moxidectin (MOX) display differences in toxicity in several host species. Entrance into the brain is restricted by the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter, while toxicity is mediated through the brain GABA(A) receptors. This study compared the toxicity of IVM and MOX in vivo and their interaction with GABA(A) receptors in vitro. Drug toxicity was asse...
