ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the effects of dexamethasone,cyclophosphamide,cyclosporin A and mycophenolate mofetil on the expression of Dectin-1 and TLR2 receptor in RAW264.7 cell line.Methods:In vitro culturing RAW264.7 macrophages ,the cells were given different doses of dexamethasone and cyclophosphamide ,cyclosporin A and mycophenolate mofetilfor 24 h.The influence of different immunosuppresants on cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay.Dectin-1,TLR2 mRNA and protein levels of change were detected with RT-PCR technique and flow cytometry .Results:CCK-8 cell proliferation toxicity experiment results showed that with the increase of the dose of dexamethasone ,cyclophosphamide ,Cyclosporin A and mycophenolate mofetil ,the different degree of inhibi-tion of RAW264.7 cell proliferation in mice can be saw after the intervention of 24 h (P0.05 ) .Mycophenolate mofetil and cyclosporin A could both inhibit the expression of Dectin-1 and TLR2 (P<0.05).Conclusion:There are significant differences among the regulatory functions of various immunosupres -sants on the expression of pattern recognition receptors .Different immunosuppressive agents exert their inhibitory effects on immune rec-ognition process of fungal pathogens not only by selectively regulating their target PRRs expression ,but also by inhibiting the growth and proliferation of macrophages .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To provide references for clinical rational and safe use of immunosuppressant agents. METHODS: The data regarding the consumption quantity and consumption sum of the immunosuppressant agents were retrieved from "China medical economy information network" ( "menet" ), which were analyzed and compared with the pertinent literature both at home and abroad. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: From 2004 to 2006, dominating the first 3 places in respect of consumption quantity and consumption sum were mycophenolate mofetil, ciclosporin, and tarcolimus. And tacrolimus is expected to become the choice drug for organ transplantation.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the recent use of immunosuppressive agents for renal transplantation patients during our hospital.METHODS:Case history of124renal transplantation patients in our hospital in2004was reviewed ret-rospectively,and the categories and the associated costs of immunosuppressive agents were statistically analyzed,which were compared with that of2000.RESULTS:In2004,patients’mean hospitalization cost was74462.77yuan and mean immuno-suppressive agents cost was25809.93yuan,increased by75.12%and175.35%,respectively as compared to2000.Of the total drug costs,the immunosuppressive agents accounted for61.37%in2004and46.4%in2000.Dominated the first3places in the list of DDDs of immunosuppressive agents in2004were Methylprednisolone,ciclosporin A and dehydrocortisone,respec-tively.CONCLUSIONS:As compared with2000,the application categories and costs of neotype immunosuppressive agents for renal transplantation patients in our hospital increased in2004,thus to find a more effective immunosuppressive remedy that of less adverse drug reaction and lower cost is of great significance.
