Current knowledge of immunosuppression as a risk factor for skin cancer development
(2022)
This review outlines our current understanding of the relationship between immunosuppression and skin cancer.
Primary immunodeficiencies increase the incidence of skin cancer, but due to their low frequency, the establishment ...
Cell-mediated immune response to Leishmania chagasi experimental infection of BALB/c immunosuppressed mice
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Centro de Estudos de Venenos e Animais Peçonhentos (CEVAP), 2010-01-01)
Leishmaniasis, a zoonosis of worldwide distribution, presents a significant impact on immunosupressed patients. This study aimed to evaluate Leishmania chagasi infection in BALB/c mice immunosuppressed with dexamethasone. ...

Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Immunosuppressive Agents
(2013)
Immunosuppressive drugs are used to reduce the immune response in organ transplantation and autoimmune disease. The pharmacokinetics of the immunosuppressive drugs is complex and unpredictable. Therapeutic drug monitoring ...
Screening for parasitic infection and tuberculosis in immunosuppressed and pre-immunosuppressed patients: An observational study
(MDPI, 2021)
Reactivation of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) or latent parasitic infection (LPI) during drug-induced immunosuppression can have serious consequences. The Division of tropical and humanitarian medicine of the Geneva ...
The metabolic and toxicological considerations for immunosuppressive drugs used during pancreas transplantation
(Informa Healthcare, 2012-12-01)
Introduction: Pancreas-kidney transplant is an effective treatment for patients with insulin-dependent dabetes and chronic renal failure. Reduction in technical failure loss and early acute rejection rates contributed to ...
Brain abscess due to viridans streptococci in a severely immunosuppressed HIV-infected patient
(ROYAL SOC MEDICINE PRESS LTD, 2009)
We report a case of viriclans streptococcus brain abscess in a severely immunosuppressed HIV-infected patient with a history of chronic sinusitis. A 39-year-old homosexual man showed mental confusion and worsening of a ...
Experimental infection of Leishmania chagasi in immunosuppressed balb/c mice: cellular immune response and parasite burden
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Centro de Estudos de Venenos e Animais Peçonhentos (CEVAP), 2008-01-01)
The immune response to leishmaniasis can result in a polarization of a subpopulation of T lymphocytes, which leads to a different cell phenotype and results in immune protection or exacerbation of the disease. Leishmanias ...
Experimental infection with Leishmania chagasi in immunosuppressed Balb/c mice: cytokines and parasite burdens
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Centro de Estudos de Venenos e Animais Peçonhentos (CEVAP), 2009-01-01)
The immune response in leishmaniasis may result in a polarization of the T lymphocyte subpopulation, altering cell phenotype and resulting in immune protection or disease exacerbation. Leishmania may persist in the body ...
