    Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a novel respiratory illness firstly reported in Saudi Arabia in 2012. It is caused by a new corona virus, called MERS corona virus (MERS-CoV). Most people who have MERS-CoV infection developed severe acute respiratory illness.. This work is done to determine the clinical characteristics and the outcome of intensive care unit (ICU) admitted patients with confirmed MERS-CoV infection.. This study included 32 laboratory confirmed MERS corona virus infected patients who were admitted into ICU. It included 20 (62.50%) males and 12 (37.50%) females. The mean age was 43.99 ± 13.03 years. Diagnosis was done by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) test for corona virus on throat swab, sputum, tracheal aspirate, or bronchoalveolar lavage specimens. Clinical characteristics, co-morbidities and outcome were reported for all subjects.. Most MERS corona patients present with fever, cough, dyspnea, sore throat, runny nose and sputum. The presence of abdominal symptoms may indicate bad prognosis. Prolonged duration of symptoms before patients' hospitalization, prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation and hospital stay, bilateral radiological pulmonary infiltrates, and hypoxemic respiratory failure were found to be strong predictors of mortality in such patients. Also, old age, current smoking, smoking severity, presence of associated co-morbidities like obesity, diabetes mellitus, chronic heart diseases, COPD, malignancy, renal failure, renal transplantation and liver cirrhosis are associated with a poor outcome of ICU admitted MERS corona virus infected patients.. Plasma HO-1, ferritin, p21, and NQO1 were all elevated at baseline in CKD participants. Plasma HO-1 and urine NQO1 levels each inversely correlated with eGFR (. SnPP can be safely administered and, after its injection, the resulting changes in plasma HO-1, NQO1, ferritin, and p21 concentrations can provide information as to antioxidant gene responsiveness/reserves in subjects with and without kidney disease.. A Study with RBT-1, in Healthy Volunteers and Subjects with Stage 3-4 Chronic Kidney Disease, NCT0363002 and NCT03893799.. HFNC did not significantly modify work of breathing in healthy subjects. However, a significant reduction in the minute volume was achieved, capillary [Formula: see text] remaining constant, which suggests a reduction in dead-space ventilation with flows > 20 L/min. (ClinicalTrials.gov registration NCT02495675).. 3 组患者手术时间、术中显性失血量及术后 1 周血红蛋白下降量比较差异均无统计学意义(. 对于肥胖和超重的膝关节单间室骨关节炎患者,采用 UKA 术后可获满意短中期疗效,远期疗效尚需进一步随访观察。.. Decreased muscle strength was identified at both time points in patients with hEDS/HSD. The evolution of most muscle strength parameters over time did not significantly differ between groups. Future studies should focus on the effectiveness of different types of muscle training strategies in hEDS/HSD patients.. These findings support previous adverse findings of e-cigarette exposure on neurodevelopment in a mouse model and provide substantial evidence of persistent adverse behavioral and neuroimmunological consequences to adult offspring following maternal e-cigarette exposure during pregnancy. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP6067.. This RCT directly compares a neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen with a standard CROSS regimen in terms of overall survival for patients with locally advanced ESCC. The results of this RCT will provide an answer for the controversy regarding the survival benefits between the two treatment strategies.. NCT04138212, date of registration: October 24, 2019.. Results of current investigation indicated that milk type and post fermentation cooling patterns had a pronounced effect on antioxidant characteristics, fatty acid profile, lipid oxidation and textural characteristics of yoghurt. Buffalo milk based yoghurt had more fat, protein, higher antioxidant capacity and vitamin content. Antioxidant and sensory characteristics of T. If milk is exposed to excessive amounts of light, Vitamins B. The two concentration of ZnO nanoparticles in the ambient air produced two different outcomes. The lower concentration resulted in significant increases in Zn content of the liver while the higher concentration significantly increased Zn in the lungs (p < 0.05). Additionally, at the lower concentration, Zn content was found to be lower in brain tissue (p < 0.05). Using TEM/EDX we detected ZnO nanoparticles inside the cells in the lungs, kidney and liver. Inhaling ZnO NP at the higher concentration increased the levels of mRNA of the following genes in the lungs: Mt2 (2.56 fold), Slc30a1 (1.52 fold) and Slc30a5 (2.34 fold). At the lower ZnO nanoparticle concentration, only Slc30a7 mRNA levels in the lungs were up (1.74 fold). Thus the two air concentrations of ZnO nanoparticles produced distinct effects on the expression of the Zn-homeostasis related genes.. Until adverse health effects of ZnO nanoparticles deposited in organs such as lungs are further investigated and/or ruled out, the exposure to ZnO nanoparticles in aerosols should be avoided or minimised.

A phase I trial of ANG1/2-Tie2 inhibitor trebaninib (AMG386) and temsirolimus in advanced solid tumors (PJC008/NCI♯9041).
    Investigational new drugs, 2016, Volume: 34, Issue:1

    There is crosstalk between the ANG-Tie2 and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways. Combined ANG1/2 and mTOR blockade may have additive anti-cancer activity. The combination of trebananib, an inhibitor of ANG1/2-Tie2 interaction, with temsirolimus was evaluated in patients with advanced solid tumors to determine tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and preliminary antitumor activity.. Patients were enrolled using 3 + 3 design, and were given intravenous trebananib and temsirolimus on Day 1, 8, 15 and 22 of a 28-day cycle. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were evaluated during cycle 1. Peripheral blood was collected for evaluation of Tie2-expressing monocytes (TEMs) and thymidine phosphorylase (TP). Sparse pharmacokinetic (PK) sampling for trebananib drug levels was performed on Day 1 and 8 of cycle 2.. Twenty-one patients were enrolled, 6 at dose level (DL) 1, 7 at DL -1, and 8 at DL -2. No effect of temsirolimus on trebananib PK was observed. The most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were: fatigue (81 %), edema (62 %), anorexia (57 %), nausea (52 %), rash (43 %) and mucositis (43 %). The most common grade ≥ 3 AEs included lymphopenia (28 %) and fatigue (28 %). The MTD was exceeded at DL-2. Of 18 response evaluable patients, 1 partial response was observed (ER+/HER2-/PIK3CA mutant breast cancer) and 4 patients had prolonged SD ≥ 24 weeks. No correlation with clinical benefit was observed with change in number TEMs or TP expression in TEMs with treatment.. The MTD was exceeded at trebananib 10 mg/kg weekly and temsirolimus 20 mg weekly, with frequent overlapping toxicities including fatigue, edema, and anorexia.

Sirolimus-associated eyelid edema in kidney transplant recipients.
    Transplantation, 2001, Jul-15, Volume: 72, Issue:1

    The immunosuppressant sirolimus is effective in preventing acute rejection episodes. So far, unusual edema formation has not been reported as a side effect.. Two groups of patients with renal transplants, consisting of 11 patients each, were followed for up to 29 months. The immunosuppressive regimen was either sirolimus and prednisone with or without cyclosporine or azathioprine/mycophenolate and prednisone with cyclosporine. Routine follow-up included a thorough clinical investigation. Edema formation was documented photographically.. In 5 of the 11 patients treated with sirolimus uni- or bilateral, non-itching, eyelid edema was observed. After discontinuation of sirolimus, lid edema disappeared. The duration until recovery varied from weeks to months. No cause of edema formation other than the treatment with sirolimus was detected.. Severe eyelid edema formation seems to be associated with sirolimus treatment. The underlying mechanism is unknown.

Successful re-administration of Pazopanib in a patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a history of Pazopanib-induced nephrotic syndrome: a case report.
    BMC nephrology, 2019, 01-03, Volume: 20, Issue:1

    Drug-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS) can be resolved by eliminating the causative agents. However, patients with metastatic cancer have not been previously reported to achieve complete recovery from anticancer drug-induced NS after discontinuation of treatment, because many patients die of cancer progression before NS is restored.. A 67-year-old man presented with edema of both lower extremities. He received pazopanib therapy for recurrent metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) for 17 months. Laboratory examinations revealed 7484.58 mg/day of 24-h urine protein, 434 mg/dL of serum cholesterol, and 2.9 g/dL of serum albumin. He was diagnosed with NS, and pazopanib treatment was discontinued. Four months later, he completely recovered from NS. He was then treated with temsirolimus and nivolumab sequentially for > 26 months. Pazopanib was re-introduced following disease progression, and demonstrated antitumor effects for 7 months without NS recurrence.. Pazopanib-induced NS can occur late in patients with mRCC, and its subsequent discontinuation can enable patients to completely recover from its adverse effects. Moreover, pazopanib treatment may be re-introduced without the recurrence of NS.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis manifesting as refractory chylothorax and chyloperitoneum.
    BMJ case reports, 2019, Jul-11, Volume: 12, Issue:7

    This is a rare case of sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis (S-LAM) manifesting as refractory chylothorax and chyloperitoneum. A middle-aged woman with unremarkable medical history presented with respiratory failure, abdominal distension and anasarca. She was found to have high-output chylous effusion that required chest tube drainage, as well as chylous ascites. Notably initial chest and abdominal CT did not reveal characteristic pulmonary cysts or the presence of angiomyolipomas suggestive of LAM. An extensive oncologic and infectious work-up was undertaken with negative findings. The chylous effusion was persistent and refractory to thoracic duct embolization, total parenteral nutrition with octreotide, and talc pleurodesis. Diagnosis of S-LAM was confirmed after repeat chest CT showed subtle pulmonary cystic changes, and serum vascular endothelial growth factor-D level was found to be elevated at 834 pg/mL. Patient was started on sirolimus therapy, but lost to follow-up after hospital discharge. Patient died approximately 1 year later.

Effects of topically applied rapamycin and mycophenolic acid on TNCB-induced atopic dermatitis-like skin lesions in NC/Nga mice.
    International immunopharmacology, 2015, Volume: 26, Issue:2

    Rapamycin (RPM) and mycophenolic acid (MPA) are immunosuppressive drugs approved for use in preventing transplant rejection. These drugs have also been used in the field of dermatology as glucocorticoid sparing agents for autoimmune and inflammatory disorders such as atopic dermatitis (AD). The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of topically applied RPM and/or MPA on AD-like skin lesions in NC/Nga mice. RPM (0.04% - 4%), MPA (0.2% - 5%), and formulations of both agents at various ratios were administrated topically to NC/Nga mice with 2-chloro-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TNCB)-induced AD-like skin lesions. The therapeutic effects of topical RPM, MPA, and the mixed formulations in TNCB-treated NC/Nga mice were assessed by measuring skin severity scores, ear thickness, and histological changes in the lesioned skin including mast cell count and total serum IgE levels. Expression of interleukin (IL)-4, and interferon (IFN)-γ was also assessed. Topical 4% RPM and/or 1% MPA treatment significantly improved clinical signs of AD such as erythema, edema, excoriation, and dryness on day 29 (P<0.05). In addition, 4% RPM, 1% MPA, and the mixed formulations significantly decreased epidermal thickening, dermal edema, and cellular infiltration into the dermis compared with the vehicle. RPM (4%) and/or MPA (1%) significantly reduced the expression of IL-4 and IFN-γ mRNA and protein levels compared with the vehicle (P<0.05). No significant change in the levels of total serum IgE was induced by topical 4% RPM and/or 1% MPA. The present results demonstrated that topical 4% RPM and/or 1% MPA improved TNCB-induced AD-like lesions of NC/Nga mice by suppressing expression of Th2-related cytokines (IL-4) and Th1-related cytokines (IFN-γ). These findings suggest that RPM and/or MPA may be promising topical therapeutic candidates for the treatment of AD.

[Experience with everolimus therapy for patients with metastatic renal cancer in Hungary].
    Magyar onkologia, 2014, Volume: 58, Issue:1

    Everolimus is indicated for the therapy of adults with advanced renal cell carcinoma after failure of treatment with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). The aim of the study was a multicenter evaluation of efficiency and toxicity of everolimus in patients with metastatic renal carcinoma who received one line of VEGFR-TKI therapy. Data of one hundred and one patients were analyzed retrospectively. Patients received everolimus therapy between January 2010 and July 2013. Data were collected in 7 different oncology institutes in Hungary. Starting daily dose of everolimus was 10 mg in 28-day cycles. Physical and laboratory examinations were done monthly. Imaging tests were performed every 3 months. Tumor response and toxicity were evaluated according to RECIST 1.0 and NCI CTCAE 3.0, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed with SPPS version 20.0 for Windows. Currently 26 (27%) patients are being treated, 52 (54.1%) patients are alive. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.7 months (95% CI 4.07-7.33). Partial remission, stable disease and progression occurred in 6 (6%), 71 (74%) and 19 (20%) patients, respectively. Median overall survival (OS) was 14.3 months (95% CI 6.99-19.81). PFS and OS results were more favorable in patients with ECOG 0-1. Survival was poorer in case of anemia, while better if PFS was longer than 12 months. In anemic patients with ECOG 0-1 and ECOG 2-3 OS was 30.9 and 7.7 months, respectively (p=0.031). Dose reduction and treatment delay happened in 8 (7.9%) and 12 (11.9%) cases, respectively. The most common side effects were the following: exanthema, edema, stomatitis, pneumonitis, anemia and abnormal kidney-, liver functions, blood sugar and cholesterol levels. According to the Hungarian experience, everolimus can safely be administered. PFS and OS results representing the centers' everyday practice, are similar to the results of the respective subgroups in the registration study.. Az everolimus elõrehaladott vesesejtes carcinoma kezelésére javallt, vascularis endothelialis növekedési faktor receptor (VEGFR) tirozinkináz-gátló (TKI) kezelést követõen. A vizsgálat célja metasztatikus veserákban szenvedõ betegeknél egy vonalban alkalmazott VEGFR-TKI kezelés utáni everolimusterápia hatékonyságának és toxicitási profiljának multicentrikus értékelése volt. 2010. 01.–2013. 07. között hazánk 7 onkológiai intézményében 101 betegnél indult everolimusterápia retrospektív elemzése. Az induló dózis 10 mg volt naponta, 28 napos ciklusokban. Fizikális és laborvizsgálat havonta, képalkotó kontroll 3 havonta történt. A tumorválaszt RECIST 1.0, a toxicitást NCI CTCAE 3.0 szerint értékeltük. Jelenleg 26 (27%) beteg kezelése zajlik, 52 beteg (54,1%) él. A medián progressziómentes túlélés (PFS) 5,7 hónap. Részleges remisszió 6 (6%), stabil betegség 71 (74%), progresszió 19 (20%). A medián teljes túlélés (OS) 14,3 hónap. A jobb általános állapotú (ECOG 0-1) betegek PFS és OS eredménye kedvezõbb volt. A túlélést csökkentette a fellépõ anémia (p=0,037), viszont javította a 12 hónapon túli PFS (p=0,001). A OS ECOG 0-1 és nem anémiás betegeknél 30,9, míg ECOG 2-3 és anémia esetén 7,7 hónap (p=0,031) volt. Dózisredukció 8 (7,9%), terápiahalasztás 12 (11,9%) esetben történt. Leggyakoribb mellékhatások: bõrkiütés, ödéma, stomatitis, pneumonitis, anémia, valamint vesefunkció-, májfunkció-, vércukor- és koleszterinszint-emelkedés. A hazai gyakorlatban szerzett tapasztalatok alapján az everolimus biztonsággal alkalmazható mTOR-gátló szer. A centrumok napi gyakorlata során elért PFS és OS hasonló a törzskönyvezõ vizsgálat megfelelõ alcsoportjainak eredményeihez.

Withdrawal of proliferation signal inhibitors due to adverse events in the maintenance phase of heart transplantation.
    The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation, 2012, Volume: 31, Issue:3

    The increasing use of proliferation signal inhibitors (PSIs) has raised the issue of their risk profile. We sought to determine the causes, incidence, risk factors, and consequences of withdrawal due to adverse events of PSIs in maintenance heart transplantation.. This was a retrospective study from 9 centers of the Spanish Registry for Heart Transplantation. Demographic, clinical, analytic, and evolution data were obtained for patients in whom a PSI (sirolimus or everolimus) was used between October 2001 and March 2009.. In the first year, 16% of 548 patients could not tolerate PSIs. This incidence rate stabilized to 3% to 4% per year thereafter. The most frequent causes for discontinuation were edema (4.7%), gastrointestinal toxicity (3.8%), pneumonitis (3.3%), and hematologic toxicity (2.0%). In multivariate analysis, withdrawal of PSI was related to the absence of statin therapy (p = 0.006), concomitant treatment with anti-metabolites (p = 0.006), a poor baseline renal function (p = 0.026), and multiple indications for PSI use (p = 0.04). Drug discontinuation was associated with a decline in renal function (p = 0.045) but not with an excess in mortality (p = 0.42).. In this large cohort of maintenance heart transplant recipients taking a PSI, 16% withdrew treatment in the first year, and 25% had stopped PSI due to severe adverse events by the fourth year. This high rate of toxicity-related PSI withdrawal could limit the clinical utility of this otherwise novel class of immunosuppressive agents.

Everolimus in different combinations as maintenance immunosuppressive therapy in heart transplant recipients.
    Experimental and clinical transplantation : official journal of the Middle East Society for Organ Transplantation, 2012, Volume: 10, Issue:3

    We examined the experiences of heart transplant recipients receiving everolimus as maintenance therapy in different combinations over a long time.. Between 2004 and 2009, forty patients (29 men, 11 women; mean age, 51.6 y) were switched from a routine immunosuppressive regimen to everolimus. Indications were other (2), renal insufficiency (17), cardiac allograft vasculopathy (14), and ongoing cellular rejection (7). Combinations were either along with cyclosporine (24), mycophenolate mofetil (14), or others (2). Indications for the introduction of everolimus including safety, efficacy, different combinations of everolimus, biopsy-proven acute rejections, renal function, and infections were evaluated retrospectively.. Five patients died, 4 of them were still on everolimus at the time of death; they died from intracerebral hemorrhage (1), embolism (1), cardiac arrest (2), and unknown (1). Everolimus was discontinued in 6 patients owing to severe adverse effects: Edema (2), gastrointestinal adverse effects (3), and dermal adverse effects (1). Mean everolimus trough levels were 5.8 μmol/L at 6 months and 4.9 at 60 months. Mean cyclosporine levels were 67.62 μmol/L at 6 months and 47.3 μmol/L at 60 months. Mean serum creatinine levels were stable (147.9 μmol/L after 60 months). Four life-threatening infections (all pneumonia) occurred but resulted in complete recovery.. Everolimus is safe with different immunosuppressive combinations after receiving a heart transplant.

Tolerance profile of the proliferation signal inhibitors everolimus and sirolimus in heart transplantation.
    Transplantation proceedings, 2008, Volume: 40, Issue:9

    The side effects of proliferation signal inhibitors (PSIs) have been characterized as a class. However, it would be convenient to assess them according to the molecule.. To assess prospectively the tolerance of PSIs among heart transplant (HT) patients.. We studied 56 HT patients who sequentially received PSIs to either withdraw (77%) or reduce the dosage of a calcineurin inhibitor; 42 received everolimus (EVE) and 14 sirolimus (SRL). We analyzed the demographic variables, side effects, and need to withdraw the drug during a median follow-up period of 365 days.. No differences between groups were observed upon analysis of the clinical and demographic variables when the treatment was changed owing to renal dysfunction (67%) or tumor (32%). No difference between groups was observed over the follow-up period (P = .28). Infection was the most common side effect, 28.6%: EVE, 14.3% versus SRL, 71.4% (P < .0001). Edema occurred in 26.8% of patients: EVE, 14.3% versus SRL, 64.3% (P = .001); diarrhea in 5.4% of patients: EVE, 2.4% versus SRL, 14.3% (P = .15). Treatment was withdrawn in 23.2% of the patients due to intolerance: EVE, 11.9% versus SRL, 57.1% (P < .0001). EVE showed significantly better survival without edema or infections or used for drug withdrawal upon Kaplan-Meier analysis, (P = .01; P = .0005; P = .0097). Only SRL use was shown to be an independent predictor of side effects.. Edema and infections are the main problems caused by PSIs. EVE may display a better tolerance profile than SRL.

mTOR inhibitors and their secondary effects in cardiac transplant recipients: a descriptive study.
    Transplantation proceedings, 2007, Volume: 39, Issue:7

    Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors are relatively new drugs in the field of cardiac transplantation (HT), hence the need for further study of their secondary effects. We described the nature and incidence of secondary effects of these drugs in a group of HT recipients.. We studied 23 HT recipients aged 52 +/- 9 years (Male: 91%, body mass index: 27 +/- 3.7, ischemic cardiopathy: 52%, dilated cardiomyopathy: 39%) who were started on an mTOR inhibitor (everolimus: 65%, sirolimus: 35%) as part of their treatment. We have described the secondary effects detected during a follow-up period of 10.7 +/- 6 months.. The reasons for starting the drug were renal impairment (65%), tumors (26%), and others (8%). During follow-up, 17% of patients required a dose reduction and 12% required drug withdrawal: edemas: 4%, recurrent infection: 4%, and hemolytic-uremic syndrome: 4%. Drug-attributable edemas presented in 26% of patients. Thirty nine percent suffered an infection that required hospital admission, 89% of which were lung and all bacterial two patients died due to the infection). The mean time to first infection was 5 +/- 6 months. In patients who had a treatment change due to tumors, 50% experienced improvement. We did not detect alterations in cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, or leukocytes. There was a nonsignificant trend toward decreased hemoglobin and platelet levels (P = .07 and P = .056, respectively).. Lung infection was the principal complication among our patients treated with mTOR inhibitors. A large percentage required dose reduction (17%) and even drug withdrawal (12%) due to secondary effects.

Pathological angiogenesis is induced by sustained Akt signaling and inhibited by rapamycin.
    Cancer cell, 2006, Volume: 10, Issue:2

    Endothelial cells in growing tumors express activated Akt, which when modeled by transgenic endothelial expression of myrAkt1 was sufficient to recapitulate the abnormal structural and functional features of tumor blood vessels in nontumor tissues. Sustained endothelial Akt activation caused increased blood vessel size and generalized edema from chronic vascular permeability, while acute permeability in response to VEGF-A was unaffected. These changes were reversible, demonstrating an ongoing requirement for Akt signaling for the maintenance of these phenotypes. Furthermore, rapamycin inhibited endothelial Akt signaling, vascular changes from myrAkt1, tumor growth, and tumor vascular permeability. Akt signaling in the tumor vascular stroma was sensitive to rapamycin, suggesting that rapamycin may affect tumor growth in part by acting as a vascular Akt inhibitor.

Cutaneous adverse events in renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus-based therapy.
    Transplantation, 2005, Feb-27, Volume: 79, Issue:4

    Sirolimus is an immunosuppressive drug recently developed for organ transplantation. Its mechanism of action, independent of calcineurin, is different from that of cyclosporine and tacrolimus, two calcineurin inhibitors (CIs). Because the toxicity of CIs is partly the result of calcineurin blockade, sirolimus exhibits a different toxicity profile. In this study, we evaluated the profile, frequency, and severity of cutaneous adverse events in renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus-based therapy.. A systematic and in-depth evaluation of skin, mucous membranes, nails, and hair was performed in 80 renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus-based therapy. The mean duration of the graft was 6 years and of sirolimus treatment was 18 months. Mycophenolate mofetil and steroids were combined with sirolimus for 74 patients. Sirolimus was used as first immunosuppressive therapy for 36 patients, and 44 patients were switched from CIs to sirolimus.. Seventy-nine patients (99%) experienced cutaneous adverse events. Twenty patients (25%) demonstrated serious adverse events, and six patients (7%) stopped sirolimus during the 3 months after the study because of cutaneous events. The most frequent of these were pilosebaceous apparatus involvement, including acne-like eruptions (46%), scalp folliculitis (26%), and hidradenitis suppurativa (12%); edematous complaints, including chronic edemas (55%) and angioedema (15%); mucous membrane disorders, including aphthous ulceration (60%), epistaxis (60%), chronic gingivitis (20%), and chronic fissure of the lips (11%); and last, nail disorders including chronic onychopathy (74%) and periungual infections (16%).. Skin disorders are frequent in renal transplant recipients receiving sirolimus as a long-term therapy. Despite the usually mild nature of skin events, they are often the reason for stopping sirolimus.

A retrospective review of liver transplant patients treated with sirolimus from a single center: an analysis of sirolimus-related complications.
    Transplantation, 2004, Jul-27, Volume: 78, Issue:2

    Sirolimus (SRL) is a powerful immunosuppressant used primarily in calcineurin inhibitors (CNI)-related nephrotoxicity. However, reports of drug-related side effects are increasing. The aim of our report is to review the frequency and timing of these complications within our transplant patient population.. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of liver-transplanted patients treated with sirolimus between November 1998 and April 2002. The data collected included SRL serum levels, frequency of reported and documented SRL-related side effects, and survival outcomes. Statistical evaluation included Pearson chi-square and the Fisher's exact tests.. Overall, 205 patients were identified, with 30 patients removed from the analysis for different reasons. Of the remaining 175 patients, 91 (52%) patients developed a complication other than an increase in serum triglycerides and/or cholesterol. The most frequent complications were: bilateral lower extremity edema (57.1%), dermatitis (25.3%), oral ulcers (24.2%), joint pain (23.0%), pleural effusion (16.5%) and increase in abdominal girth (9.9%). Other complications included: generalized edema (5.5%), pericardial effusion (5.5%), facial edema (2.2%), and upper extremity edema (1.3%). In addition, we reported two cases of hepatic artery thrombosis, one case of wound dehiscence with evisceration that required surgical repair, and one case of skin cancer. Interestingly, we found that a previous history of myocardial ischemia correlates with the development of SRL side effects.. SRL is a powerful immunosuppressant but not devoid of side effects. These results have elevated our level of suspicion when instituting SRL and may help with early recognition and prevention of drug related complications.

Pharmacological characterization of Sephadex-induced oedema in rat paws: predominant role of serotonin and platelet-activating factor.
    International archives of allergy and immunology, 1996, Volume: 109, Issue:4

    An intravenous injection of Sephadex beads has been used to induce lung inflammation and bronchial hyperreactivity in small animals. In the present study, we injected Sephadex beads (0.3-5.5 mg/paw) into rat paws and followed the resulting inflammation plethysmometrically. Our results show that Sephadex beads induced a significant and dose-dependent increase in the hindpaw volume at 5 min; it was maximal at 30-60 min and declined at 4 h. However, the paw volume remained significantly increased for up to 21 days. The initial 4-hour-oedema was confirmed by histopathology of the paw tissues, but the persistent increase in paw volume was related to a chronic inflammatory (granulomatous) response. The Sephadex-induced oedema was predominantly due to serotonin (5-HT) release since specific antagonists such as methysergide (1 mg/kg) and pizotifen (0.1-2 mg/kg) administered both systemically and locally were able to inhibit the oedema (10-100 microgram/paw) as could pretreatment with compound 48/80. In addition, platelet-activating factor (PAF) was also shown to be involved, since systemic pretreatment using the specific PAF antagonist BN 52021 (1 mg/kg) was able to inhibit the increase in paw volume induced by Sephadex. Effective doses of indomethacin (2 mg/kg), L-NAME (1 mg/kg), pyrilamine (1-2 mg/kg), ondansetron (1 mg/kg) and HOE 140 (1 mg/kg) did not affect the Sephadex-induced oedema, thus ruling out the participation of prostaglandins, nitric oxide, histamine, 5-HT3 receptors and bradykinin in its development. Since the late increases in paw volume induced by Sephadex were reduced by pretreatment of the animals with the immunosuppressive drugs rapamycin and dexamethasone but not cyclosporin, our results also suggested that distinct immunological pathways may be involved in the modulation of the chronic phase of inflammation induced by Sephadex beads in rat paws.
