In vitro evaluation of cytotoxicity caused by carbamazepine and its metabolites in association to carbamazepine-induced hypersensitivity reactions
2014-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Carbamazepine (CBZ), an anticonvulsant and mood-stabilising drug, is known to cause delayed type hypersensitivity reactions. These reactions occur only in a minority of patients treated with the drug, but often result in severe clinical outcomes. Although an association between CBZ-induced hypersensitivity reactions and HLA alleles has been demonstrated, the underlying mechanism(s) of toxicity are poorly understoo...
