1 Cyclosporin A and FK506 decrease adenosine kinase activity and adenosine uptake in T-lymphocytes. Tacrolimus adenosine kinase Homo sapiens
2 The immunosuppressive drugs cyclosporin A (CsA) and FK506 inhibited both adenosine uptake and AK activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Tacrolimus adenosine kinase Homo sapiens
3 These data demonstrate that CsA and FK506 enhance adenosine concentrations in T-lymphocytes by way of a mechanism that involves AK inhibition. Tacrolimus adenosine kinase Homo sapiens
