O. Schuck et al., CHANGES IN CYCLOSPORINE-A KINETICS AFTER EXPERIMENTAL REDUCTION OF RENAL PARENCHYMA, European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 22(3), 1997, pp. 207-209
Experimental chronic renal insufficiency (produced by 5/6 ablation of
renal parenchyma) is associated with changes in the kinetics of oral (
intragastric) cyclosporine A (CyA). Compared with animals with intact
renal parenchyma, significantly lower levels of CyA are reached under
these conditions. The factors responsible for reduced CyA availability
under these conditions have not yet been identified.
