초록

Calcineurin inhibitors, cyclosporine A (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK506), have been studied extensively regarding their effects on T lymphocytes, but their effects on dendritic cells (DC) are relatively unknown. DC can really capture Ag from dead and dying cells for presentation to MHC class I-restricted CTL. The main targets for the immunosuppressive calcinerin inhibitors, FK506 and CsA. have been considered to be activated T cells, but not antigen presenting cells (APCs). (omitted)
