Natural killer cell activity in renal transplant recipients receiving cyclosporine

Natural killer cell activity in renal transplant recipients receiving cyclosporine.

Normal subjects (n = 11) had a mean circulating natural killer (NK) cell activity of 188 lytic units per 10(7) peripheral mononuclear blood leukocytes. This activity was significantly enhanced by in vitro incubation with 500 U of alpha-interferon (+207 lytic units). The mean NK activity of renal transplant recipients on azathioprine (n = 17) or on cyclosporine (n = 17) studied at various times ...

PREGNANCY IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS

 ABSTRACT Background: Correction of the uremic state by a functioning allograft often restores fertility in women of reproductive age. The rate of fertility significantly differs between industrial countries, developing and middle east countries. On the other hand the results of pregnancy in Kidney Transplantation (KTP) patients are significantly better than hemodialysis patients, and pregnancy...

A 16 Month Survey of Cyclosporine Utilization Evaluation in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients

Objectives: Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a life threatening reaction in the stem cell transplantation process. Nowadays Cyclosporine is the most commonly utilized agent for GVHD prophylaxis and it has a major role in successful transplantation. Cyclosporine has been applied for many years in this field but it could be stated that currently no general consensus is available for its optima...
