Utility of monitoring mycophenolic acid in solid organ transplant patients.
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether monitoring concentrations of mycophenolic acid (MPA) in the serum or plasma of persons who receive a solid organ transplant will result in a lower incidence of transplant rejections and adverse events versus no monitoring of MPA. To investigate whether the incidence of rejection or adverse events differs according to MPA dose or frequency, type of MPA, the form...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Therapeutic Corner Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Mycophenolic Acid
M ycophenolic acid (MPA)-based therapies are widely used in combination with calcineurin inhibitors as maintenance immunosuppression for kidney transplant recipients (1). The two MPA therapies used in clinical transplantation are mycophenolate mofetil (MMF [brand name CellCept, Roche Pharmaceuticals, Nutley, NJ]) and mycophenolate sodium (MPS [brand name Myfortic, Norvartis Pharmaceuticals, Nut...
متن کاملMycophenolic acid in silage.
We examined 233 silage samples and found that molds were present in 206 samples with counts between 1 x 10(3) and 8.9 x 10(7) (mean, 4.7 x 10(6)) CFU/g. Mycophenolic acid, a metabolite of Penicillium roqueforti, was detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in 74 (32%) of these samples at levels ranging from 20 to 35,000 (mean, 1,400) microg/kg. This compound has well-known immunosupp...

متن کاملIMP-dehydrogenase inhibition in human lymphocytes and lymphoblasts by mycophenolic acid and mycophenolic acid glucuronide.
Inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMP-DH) activities were measured in human lymphocytes (exhibiting type I IMP-DH activity) and human lymphoblasts (exhibiting type II IMP-DH activity) in the presence of various amounts of mycophenolic acid (MPA) (0-20 mumol/L) and MPA glucuronide (MPAG) (0-200 mumol/L). Moreover, the influences of human serum albumin (HSA) and human plasma on the MPA- and...
