abstract：:Cyclosporin (CsA) is widely used in the treatment of renal disease and transplantation, which are often complicated by alterations of lipid metabolism. Both chronic administration of CsA and hyperlipidaemia have been shown to evoke an early macrophage influx and have progressively led to glomerular and interstitial sc...
