1 FK506 potently inhibits T cell activation induced TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production in vitro by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Tacrolimus tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
2 The aim of this study was to elucidate the in vitro inhibitory potency of FK506 on production of the inflammatory cytokines, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-1beta, with a view to assessing this immunosuppressive agent as a potential anti-rheumatic drug. Tacrolimus tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
3 FK506 inhibited anti-CD3/CD28 induced TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production at concentrations less than 1 ng ml(-1). Tacrolimus tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
4 Flow cytometric analysis of intracellular TNF-alpha and IL-1beta positive cells showed that FK506 potently suppresses inflammatory cytokine production from CD14+ monocytes as well as from T cells. Tacrolimus tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
