Abstract
Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a drug that has allowed the field of human organ transplantation to develop from an experimental stage to a practical and effective form of therapy (1). FK 506, a novel compound, is now becoming of interest as an alternative immunosuppressive agent (2, 3), and preliminary reports have appeared to demonstrate its usefulness in organ transplantation (4).
