Cyclosporine is a potent immunomodulatory agent with an increasing number of clinical applications. Its major mode of action is inhibition of the production of cytokines involved in the regulation of T-cell activation. In particular, cyclosporine inhibits the transcription of interleukin.
Cyclosporine is extensively distributed in peripheral tissues. Its volume of distribution is 3 to 5 L/kg. Cyclosporine distribution in the blood is approximately 41 to 58% in erythrocytes, 33 to 47% in plasma, 5 to 12% in granulocytes, and 4 to 9% in lymphocytes.
