1 Tacrolimus 10 ng/mL reduced the production of IL-2 in CD4 and CD8 T cells by 28.9% and 45.4% (P < 0.05). Tacrolimus CD8a molecule Homo sapiens
2 This effect on tacrolimus pharmacodynamics was associated with ABCB1 3435C>T SNP in renal transplant patients: verapamil reduced the percentage of IL-2-producing CD4 and CD8 T cells by 14% and 22% in patients with the CC genotype (P < 0.05) but not in patients with the TT genotype. Tacrolimus CD8a molecule Homo sapiens
3 Moreover, the ratio of tacrolimus C0 over the percent of IL-2-producing CD8 T cells in CC genotype patients was significantly higher compared with TT genotype patients (P < 0.05), showing a smaller pharmacodynamic effect in CC genotype patients. Tacrolimus CD8a molecule Homo sapiens
