Effects of cyclosporin A on suppressor and inducer T lymphocytes in primary biliary cirrhosis

Lancet
G RouthierG Goldstein

Abstract

There is a significant decrease in the ratio of inducer (helper) to suppressor T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). These changes are not seen in other forms of cholestatic liver disease, but are similar to those described in chronic graft-versus-host disease. Cyclosporin A treatment increased the proportion of suppressor A lymphocytes and improved liver function in 6 patients with PBC. This indicates that cyclosporin A is an immunoregulatory drug. Unfortunately nephrotoxicity precluded long-term use.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
