Does allergic sensitization in kidney-transplanted patients prevail under tacrolimus treatment?
Our results suggest that post-transplant immunosuppression with tacrolimus is associated with an increased occurrence of IgE-mediated sensitization and probably manifestation of allergic disease, which has to be treated specifically despite immunosuppressive therapy.
Adipose tissue hyperplasia (too many small fat cells) and low leptin production resulting in relative hypoleptinemia in the fasting (basal) state are common features of the postobese state in women.
