The Use of Topical Calcineurin Inhibitors in Atopic Dermatitis

Abstract: In recent years, two topical calcineurin inhibitors have emerged as effective alternatives to corticosteroids for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Decisions regarding first line therapy between pimecrolimus and tacrolimus are often based on anecdotal evidence. Herein, we review the current evidence supporting the use of pimecrolimus and tacrolimus in atopic dermatitis as well as key differences in safety, tolerability, and cost between the drugs.

“…In a consistent with a majority of the articles that dealt with the use of tacrolimus in A.D. treatment (Crissinger and Nguyen, 2014), our recent work obviates the effect of tacrolimus on atopic dermatitis tissue markers, histological and observational severity scores and also on the CBC of the affected mice.…”

“…Furtherly, more recent study postulated that tacrolimus bind to the F.K. binding protein-12 (FKBP12) to inhibit calcineurin, a protein phosphatase responsible for the dephosphorylation of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NF-AT) (Crissinger and Nguyen, 2014). Without dephosphorylation, NF-AT cannot be translocated into the nucleus, and thus the pro-duction of in lammatory interleukins is inhibited.…”

“…На основании полученных данных сделан вывод, что длительное прерывистое (3 раза в неделю) назначение мази такролимус детям, страдающим АтД средней и тяжелой степени, является новым способом контроля течения этого заболевания. Результаты длительного наблюдения более чем за 5000 детей показали, что такролимус эффективен, абсолютно безопасен и имеет минимальную системную абсорбцию [50].…”
