State of immunosuppressive agents in organ transplantation.
TRANSPLANT A nON has been built on the foundation of using drug thera.py to nonspecifically suppress the recipient immune response. Failure to achieve adequate immunosuppression is associated with a high incidence of graft loss from rejection. The present goal of immunosuppressive regimens is to suppress the immune response to the allograft while preserving sufficient immunity to avoid opportun...
متن کاملEffect of Immunosuppressive Agents on Hepatocyte Apoptosis Post-Liver Transplantation
INTRODUCTION Immunosuppressants are used ubiquitously post-liver transplantation to prevent allograft rejection. However their effects on hepatocytes are unknown. Experimental data from non-liver cells indicate that immunosuppressants may promote cell death thereby driving an inflammatory response that promotes fibrosis and raises concerns that a similar effect may occur within the liver. We ev...
متن کاملImmunosuppressive agents and cytomegalovirus infection.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the major infectious complication observed after organ transplantation. As rejection episodes always occur in allograft-transplanted recipients, various kinds of immunosuppressive agents are used to control such rejection episodes. Among the commonly used immunosuppressive agents, anti-pan-T cell polyclonal and monoclonal antibody are known to increase the ris...
متن کاملPharmacological immunosuppressive agents.
A vast range of different compounds seem capable of depressing the immune response, however, it has been disappointing that so few of these have shown potential as immunosuppressive agents in man. The action of many has been to suppress lymphocyte reactivity in vitro and of those that are capable of prolonging graft survival in animals in addition, just a handful have been found to be safe and ...
متن کامل[Immunosuppressive agents in Dermatology].
Immunosupressants are drugs that act in cell division and have anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, they are essentially prescribed in the prevention of transplant rejection and in the treatment of autoimmune disorders and chronic inflammatory diseases, whose main example in Dermatology is psoriasis. In this work the most important immunosuppressive drugs and orientation to properly administer...
