“…The role of the immunosuppressive treatments in the increased risk of skin cancer is widely admitted, and a decrease of tumors after treatment tapering has been documented [17]. More substantial weaning of immunosuppressive therapy is possible after LT as compared with other organ transplants, suggesting that in the long-term skin cancers could expectedly be less frequent in LTR.…”

“…More substantial weaning of immunosuppressive therapy is possible after LT as compared with other organ transplants, suggesting that in the long-term skin cancers could expectedly be less frequent in LTR. Transplant physicians need to be aware of the precise impact of immunosuppressive drugs on carcinogenesis [17,18]. Prolonged use of steroids in non-transplant patients has been found to increase the risk of SCC, consequently steroid-free regimens, which are more frequently used in LTR, probably contribute to reducing the oncogenic risk.…”

“…The impact of immunosuppressive drugs on skin cancer development is still poorly defined 9 . Most patients with posttransplant pediatric cancers were receiving previous immunosuppressive strategies including prednisone (92%), azathioprine (75%), and cyclosporine (53%) 4 .…”

“…Odos karcinomos išsivystymui svarbus veiksnys yra ne tik bendras imunosupresinio gydymo intensyvumas [16,[35][36][37], bet ir skirtingos imunosupresinių vaistų savybės. Azatioprinas (antimetabolitas), veikdamas sinergistiškai su UV spinduliais, pasižymi mutageniniu poveikiu [38][39][40][41], kalcineurino inhibitoriai (pvz., ciklosporinas, takrolimuzas) skatina navikinių ląstelių invazyvumą ir angiogenezę [9,[42][43][44], be to, slopina DNR reparacijos mechanizmus [45]. Pastaruoju metu daugėja įrodymų, kad žinduolių rapamicino taikinio (mTOR) inhibitoriai (pvz., sirolimuzas), palyginus su kitais imuninę sistemą slopinančiais vaistais, pasižymi mažesne piktybinių odos navikų išsivystymo rizika [46][47][48][49][50], imunosupresija mikofenolato mofetiliu, palyginus su azatioprinu paremtomis schemomis, rečiau sukelia odos karcinomą (1 lentelė) [52].…”
