A single oral dose of cyclosporin-A (CsA) transiently reduces renal plasma flow (RPF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in transplant patients and, in some patients, chronic administration of CsA leads to renal impairment and fibrosis. Based on experimental studies, several mediators including free radicals have been proposed to account for CsA-nephrotoxicity. We have previously reported that administration of the antioxidant vitamin E in a rat model of chronic CsA-nephrotoxicity reduces renal fibrosis and maintains renal function.
