Cyclosporin A Description:

1.Cyclosporine A is a powerful immunosuppressive drug intended for preventing rejection of kidney, heart, and lung transplants. A new era in the development of immunopharmacology began with the discovery of cyclosporines. Cyclosporines are produced by mycelial mushrooms Tolypocladium inflatum, Tricoderma polysporum, and Cylindrocarpon lucidum, which are found in the ground.
2.Cyclosporine A is the first drug to affect a specific line of protecting cells of the body. Unlike usual cytotoxics, it suppresses T-cells and acts on all cell lines simultaneously. Cyclosporine A significantly eases the 'reception' of transplants, and increases the possibility of treating autoimmune system diseases.
