초록

Tacrolimus (FK506), a calcineurin inhibitor, is an effective immunosuppressive agent mainly used to lower the risk of organ rejection after allogeneic organ transplant. However, FK506-associated adverse effects, such as nephrotoxicity, may limit its therapeutic use. In this study, we confirmed that epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), sanguiin H-6, and gallic acid increased cell survival following FK506-induced cytotoxicity in renal epithelial LLC-PK1. Among these compounds, gallic acid exerted the strongest protective effect, further confirmed in the FK506-induced nephrotoxicity rat model. Additionally, we identified supporting evidence for the nephroprotective function of gallic acid using molecular docking and bioavailability investigations. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd
