Comparative Study of the Cellular Pharmacodynamics of Calcineurin Inhibitors between Patients with Chronic Renal Failure Awaiting Renal Transplantation and Cirrhosis Patients Awaiting Liver Transplantation

The in vitro response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to the suppressive effects of calcineurin inhibitors is known to correlate with the clinical efficacy of drugs used in renal transplantations. The present study was conducted to examine the differences of PBMC responses to calcineur...
