Treatment of transplant rejection: are the traditional immunosuppressants good enough?
Due to the improvement in the understanding of the anti-allogenic immune response, the success of transplantation medicine has increased rapidly over the last two decades. The knowledge that the T-lymphocyte played an integral role in transplant rejection, brought cyclosporine A and FK-506 to the fore as therapeutic immunosuppressants. However, the current mainstays in transplant rejection are not without their problems and many drug companies are exploring the possibilities of improving the available therapies by developing drugs with reduced toxicity, improved long-term survival and efficacy against chronic rejection and improved immunosuppressive selectivity. The advances in the understanding of T-cell activation and lymphocyte trafficking has highlighted ways to improve the existing therapies and more selective immunosuppressant targets.
