abstract = {AIM: To study mRNA level of cyclophilin in the white blood cells (WBC) of the renal allograft recipients (RAR) and its correlation with ciclosporin concentration in whole blood.
METHODS: The cyclophilin mRNA levels and beta-actin as controls in the WBC of 47 RAR were measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The blood ciclosporin assay utilized monoclonal antibody fluorescence polarization immunoassay.
RESULTS: With the increase of ciclosporin concentration in whole blood (from 62 micrograms.L-1 to 678 micrograms.L-1), relative cyclophilin mRNA level in the WBC of RAR decreased nonlinearly (from 1.1 to 0.03, r = 0.8195). CONCLUSION: There was a negative correlation between the mRNA level of cyclophilin in the WBC of RAR and the ciclosporin concentration in whole blood.},
