FK506 ameliorates the discrimination learning impairment due to preventing the rarefaction of white matter induced by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion in rats.
We examined the effects of the immunosuppressant tacrolimus (FK506) on the discrimination learning impairment induced by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion in rats. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion was prepared by permanent ligation of bilateral common carotid arteries for male Wistar rats aged 9 weeks. FK506 (0.05 mg/kg, s.c.) recovered the learning impairment and also prevented the rarefaction of white matter and striatal neuronal cell damage. Our findings suggest that FK506 ameliorates the learning impairment mainly due to preventing neuropathological alterations.

FK506-induced intractable leukoencephalopathy following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
FK506-related leukoencephalopathy has been reported to be reversible and readily treated by discontinuation or reduction of FK506. We describe two pediatric cases of FK506-related leukoencephalopathy following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, which could not be readily controlled. These cases show that FK506-related leukoencephalopathy is not always reversible, and patients may develop epilepsy. Bone Marrow Transplantation (2000) 25, 331-334.
