Cyclosporine A (CsA) and tacrolimus prevent proliferation but not transendothelial migration of alloreactive lymphocytes into donor organs. As a result, serious adverse effects, such as nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity, have been observed under CsA/tacrolimus therapy. The incorporation of new drugs with infiltration blocking properties might enhance the efficacy of the current immunosuppressive protocol, allowing lower CsA/tacrolimus dosage. Because Ca2+ plays a critical role in cell-cell interaction, the Ca2+-channel blocker verapamil might be a good cany. didate for supporting CsA/tacrolimus-based therapy.
