摘要

Objectives: The adenosine triphosphate assay using peripheral lymphocytes may be useful to evaluate the risks of acute rejection and infection in kidney transplant patients. We used the adenosine triphosphate assay to evaluate differences between recipients who were treated with cyclosporine- or tacrolimus-based immunosuppressive therapy. Materials and Methods: Adenosine triphosphate levels were measured in peripheral CD4+ cells before and after transplant and were correlated with clinical outcomes in 45 kidney transplant recipients. These recipients received immunosuppressive therapy with either cyclosporine (23 patients) or tacrolimus (22 patients). Results: Adenosine triphosphate levels were significantly lower in the cyclosporine- than tacrolimus-based therapy groups from 2 to 6 weeks after transplant. Adenosine triphosphate levels were similar between these groups before and 1 week after transplant. The frequency of cytomegalovirus infection was greater in the recipients who received cyclosporine (17 patients [74%]) than tacrolimus (6 patients [27%]; P ≤ .003). The frequency of acute rejection episodes was similar between the cyclosporine and tacrolimus groups. Conclusions: These observations suggest that cyclosporine-based immunosuppressive therapy causes excessive immunosuppression compared with tacrolimus-based therapy, evidenced by the lymphocyte adenosine triphosphate levels. The adenosine triphosphate assay using peripheral CD4+ cells may be a useful method for predicting the occurrence of cytomegalovirus infections in kidney transplant recipients.
