BREDININ TREATMENT IN CLINICAL KIDNEY ALLOGRAFTING

Abstract
Bredinin, a new nucleoside antibiotic isolated from Eupenicillium brefeldianum, and steroids were used as immunosuppressive agents in 31 renal transplant patients; 17 of them received grafts from living-related donors and 14 from cadavers. The one-year graft survival rates were 100% in renal recipients from living donors and 69.2% in cadaver kidney recipients. There was no serious complication from the use of these immunosuppressive agents.
