Background. Both mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and azathioprine (AZA) are immunosuppressive drugs that inhibit purine synthesis. In theory, MMF selectively inhibits lymphocyte proliferation, while AZA has well-known effects on red blood cells and thrombocytes as well. In renal transplant recipients we replaced CsA therapy by MMF in an attempt to reduce the immunosuppressive load 1 year after kidney transplantation. During this study we observed the effect of MMF on haematological parameters such as haemoglobin (Hb), leukocytes, and thrombocytes. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
