Blood absorption of tetracycline hydrochloride of various dispersity levels from capsules containing tetracycline alone or in combination with additives, such as magnesium carbonate and calcium salts was studied on humans. It was found that higher dispersity levels of tetracycline hydrochloride powder in capsules was not accompanied by increased blood absorption of the antibiotic. Addition of magnesium carbonate and calcium salts to the antibiotic in the process of capsulation markedly retarded the blood absorption. Clear correlation between the antibiotic dissolution rate in vitro and intensity of its blood absorption in volunteers was shown. 相似文献

The rate of tetracycline hydrochloride transfer into solution from capsules containing different auxiliary substances was studied. It was shown that the dispersity level of tetracycline hydrochloride powder had no significant effect on the capsule disintegration and the rate of the antibiotic transfer into solution. The effect of the auxiliary substance composition on the capsule disintegration and the rate of the antibiotic dissolution was shown. The rate of tetracycline liberation from the capsules containing tetracycline hydrochloride without additives or the antibiotic in combination with 23 per cent of lactose was 4 to 6 times higher than that from the capsules with magnesium carbonate or calcium phosphate as the auxiliary substances. 相似文献

Environmental antibiotic contamination is due mainly to improper and illegal disposal of these molecules that, yet pharmacologically active, are excreted by humans and animals. These compounds contaminate soil, water and plants. Many studies have reported the bioaccumulation of antibiotics in plants and their negative effects on photosynthesis, cell growth and oxidative balance. Therefore, the principal objective of this paper was the study of antibiotic accumulation sites in plants and its uptake modality. Iberis sempervirens L., grown in soil and in agar in the presence or absence of tetracycline, were used as a model system. Using confocal and transmission electron microscopy, we demonstrated that tetracycline was absorbed and propagated in plants through apoplastic transport and also accumulated in intercellular spaces. Tetracycline was rarely detected inside cells (in cytoplasm and mitochondria where, coherent to its pharmacological activity, it probably affected ribosomes), except in stomata. Moreover, we verified and clarified further the phytotoxic effects of tetracycline on plants. We observed that the antibiotic induced a large reduction in plant growth and development and inhibition of photosynthetic activity. As tetracycline may lead to oxidative stress in plants, plant cells tried to balance this disequilibrium by increasing the amount and activity of some endogenous enzyme antioxidant agents (superoxide dismutase 1 and catalase) and levels of antiradical secondary metabolites. 相似文献

Difference in the levels of bioavailability of 4 types of tetracycline hydrochloride tablets was shown on rabbits and guinea pigs. The rates of the antibiotic absorption into the blood of the laboratory animals and volunteers were the same. Relation between the rate of disintegration of various types of tablets of tetracycline hydrochloride and the antibiotic blood levels in the rabbits after administration of the same tablets was found. 相似文献

High frequency of spontaneous and UV-and acridine dye-induced variants susceptible to oxytetracycline (OTC) and deprived of the capacity for synthesizing this antibiotic was observed in strain LST-118 of Actinomyces rimosus. The cells of strain LST-118 of Act. rimosus contained extrachromosomal DNA not found in its OTC susceptible variant BS87, which provides evidence in favour of participation of the extrachromosomal genetic elements in control of OTC resistance of the cells of Act. rimosus, LST-118. The OTC resistance in strain LST-118 is of inducable character. The resistance level is increasing from the beginning of the antibiotic synthesis and initially the subinhibitory concentrations of OTC in the medium were the inductors triggering cellular mechanisms ensuring resistance of the cell to the increasing concentrations of OTC in the medium. The capacity for absorption of OTC in Act rimosus is 2--3 times lower than that in E. coli. The experiments with labeled tetracycline showed that the cells of the actinomycete absorbed OTC when it was present in the medium. The absorption of the main amount of the antibiotic was registered during the first 5 minutes. The difference in absorption of OTC by the cells of the antibiotic resistant and sensitive strains was insignificant. 相似文献

Three different concentrations of the antibiotic tetracycline in honey were tested for their influence on the offspring production and longevity of the parasitoid wasp Encarsia formosa. Several earlier publications did not provide a conclusive answer on the effect that the Wolbachia have on these wasps. The results of our experiments show that at high tetracycline hydrochloride concentrations in honey (50mg/ml) the antibiotic is toxic to the females, all females died within three days after the antibiotic treatment. The concentration 5mg/ml was less toxic although the treated females also lived shorter and produced less offspring than the control females. At the lowest tested concentration of 1mg/ml there was no significant difference either in offspring production or in longevity between the control and the treated females. The antibiotic treatment at both 5 and 1mg/ml resulted in exclusively male progeny after the first two days of oviposition. These results are consistent with the theory that in species in which all individuals are infected the Wolbachia should not impose a large fitness cost. 相似文献

The transport of chlortetracycline by Streptococcus faecalis is energy dependent. Addition of glucose to energy-depleted cells enhances both the transport rates and accumulation levels. Transport rates can be altered independently of glucose by treating cells with ionophores that increase or decrease the proton gradient. The transport of the antibiotic is linked only to the transmembrane pH difference, delta pH, and not the transmembrane electrical potential, delta psi. This conclusion was verified by quantitative measurements of delta pH, delta psi, and tetracycline accumulation levels. A linear correlation between delta pH and the tetracycline electrochemical potential was observed. Tetracycline most likely accumulates by the symport of protons in which the protons are bound to an anionic form of the antibiotic to form an uncharged molecule. 相似文献

The toxic action of cadmium in the bone tissue is known, but its mechanisms are still unexplained. We examined whether Cd influences collagen content and its solubility in the femoral bone of three-week-old female rats exposed to 5 or 50 mg Cd/l in drinking water. Non-cross linked collagen was extracted with 0.5 M acetic acid, and two acid-insoluble collagen fractions were extracted with pepsin and 4.0 M guanidine hydrochloride, respectively. SDS/PAGE showed the presence of two collagen types, I and V, in all three extracted fractions. Exposure of rats to Cd for 6 months increased the amount of acid-soluble collagens type I and V and decreased the level of acid-insoluble collagens. The amount of total collagen extracted from the bones of rats exposed to 50 mg Cd/l was reduced by about 14% as compared to control and those intoxicated with 5 mg Cd/l. The solubility of type I bone collagen (determined as the percentage of acetic-soluble fraction of total collagen) was increased 2.9- and 3.0-fold in rats intoxicated with 5 and 50 mg Cd/l, respectively. Similarly, the solubility of type V collagen was increased 2.3- and 2.7-fold, respectively. Our results indicate that Cd treatment affects bone collagen by decreasing its content and increasing its solubility. 相似文献

Day, L. E. (Chas. Pfizer & Co., Inc., Groton, Conn.). Tetracycline inhibition of cell-free protein synthesis. II. Effect of the binding of tetracycline to the components of the system. J. Bacteriol. 92:197-203. 1966.-When tetracycline, an inhibitor of cell-free protein synthesis, was preincubated with each component of the Escherichia coli cell-free system, i.e., ribosomes, soluble ribonucleic acid (sRNA), polyuridylic acid (poly U), and S-100 (supernatant enzymes), only the ribosomal-bound antibiotic was inhibitory to the cell-free assay. Experiments designed to further localize the site of inhibition to either the 50S (Svedberg) or the 30S ribosomal subunit were not conclusive. Tritiated tetracycline (7-H(3)-tetracycline) was bound to isolated 50S ribosomes, and these were recombined with 30S subunits to form 70S ribosomes. When these ribosomes were dissociated and the subunits reisolated, the antibiotic was found with both the 50S and the 30S particles. The same results were observed when the tetracycline was initially bound to the 30S subunit. 相似文献

The effects of various levels of tetracycline hydrochloride on the feeding habits, larval growth, and the metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins of Heliothis virescens were studied. Regression analysis showed that larval weight, fatty acids and glycogen decreased exponentially with increasing concentration of antibiotic, whereas protein showed a linear decrease. Larval feeding was initially decreased when antibiotics were added to the diet but there was no difference after 24 hr. 相似文献

The method of back turbidimetry was used for determination of the biological activity of the antibiotics, since high turbidity of the nutrient medium with Staph. aureus as the testculture prevented from direct measurements. Broth containing phosphate buffer, Staph. aureus and definite concentrations of the antibiotic was used as the reference solution. The experiments showed that the differences in the biological activities of tetracycline hydrochloride and morphocycline may be found with the method of back turbidimetry 6-8 hours after the microbe cultivation on media with the antibiotics. 相似文献

Resistance markers to individual antibiotics are transmitted in E. coli with the same frequency in the shape of a uniform linkage group, and in Proteus mirabilis--with a different one. Possibly in Proteus mirabilis plasmide R6 dissociated, this being expressed in a different incidence of transconjugates, characterized by a different set of antibiotic resistance genes. Tetracyclin resistance gene can be transmitted in P. mirabilis without being bound with other resistance determinants and with the functioning Tra-operon. The expression of individual antibiotic resistance genes of plasmide R6 in P. mirabilis differed, i.e. tetracycline resistance was inducible, and to kanamycin and chloramphenicol--constitutional. The level of expression of the gene controlling the tetracycline resistance was in noninduced condition in P. mirabilis, lower than in E. coli, P. mirabilis containing no R-factor possessed an inducible resistance mechanism to tetracycline, as in case of P. mirabilis strains containing R-factors. 相似文献

Expression of matrix metalloproteinase activity in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy: A marker of cardiac dilatation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), ventricular systolic dysfunction and chamber dilatation are accompanied by architectural remodeling, wall thinning and cardiac myocyte slippage. Recent work has demonstrated an association between collagen degradation and an increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Accordingly, we have sought to correlate (a) collagen degradation with MMP elevations and, (b) assay the neutralizing potential of a known inhibitor of MMP, tetracycline on MMPs in DCM. METHODS: Assessment of LV volume and shape by 2-D echocardiography was performed. Light microscopic assessment of histopathology in picrosirius red stained biopsy samples of 11 DCM patients and six post-transplant patients was performed. Zymographic estimation of MMP activity and influence of tetracycline on MMP activity was assessed. RESULTS: Small amount of interstitial collagen was noted in the control group, whereas in the DCM hearts, chamber dilatation was associated with areas of scanty myocyte necrosis, islands of excess collagen, and focal areas of absent or scanty collagen with intact myocytes. In cardiomyopathic tissue, collagenase activity was markedly elevated at 63% compared with 8% in post-transplant tissue. Tetracycline at a concentration of 285+/-10 microM (IC50) inhibited collagenase activity by 50% in cardiomyopathic tissue. CONCLUSIONS: Areas of focal interstitial collagen accumulation were accompanied by collagen fiber lysis and increased collagenase activity in dilated cardiomyopathy. This enhanced collagenolytic activity found in endomyocardial biopsy tissue was inhibited by tetracycline. The non-antibiotic property of tetracycline may be of potential value in the prevention of ventricular dilatation in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. 相似文献

Repeated trunk injections of tetracycline hydrochloride and oxytetra-cycline over a 27 month period, retarded the rate at which clove trees in Zanzibar, died from sudden death (SD) disease. This result provides additional support for an MLO aetiology for SD, but indicates that the tetracycline formulations and method of application, as described here, is not a feasible method of SD control in the field. Bioassay of leaf discs and root sections using agar plates seeded with Bacillus subtilis, at various times after injection, indicated that antibiotic distribution to the canopy was extensive, but that down to the roots was minimal. The proportion of leaf discs showing tetracycline activity declined over a 54 day period post-injection, from 75,% to 17%. Mean tetracycline levels in leaves per tree peaked at 2.4 μg/ml, 21 days after injection. The highest individual leaf disc level was 7 μg/ml. Most trees maintained concentrations of tetracycline inhibitory to B. subtilis growth for 2,1–41 days. 相似文献

1. The insoluble collagen from Guerin epithelioma was isolated and its chemical composition was determined. The unusually high histidine content is accompanied in tumour collagen by a relatively small amount of lysine and arginine. 2. The isolated protein was strongly bound to glycoprotein, which could not be removed by EDTA treatment unless this procedure was preceded by digestion of the complex with trypsin. 相似文献

Photolysis of [3H]tetracycline in the presence of Escherichia coli ribosomes results in an approximately 1:1 ratio of labelling ribosomal proteins and RNAs. In this work we characterize crosslinks to both 16S and 23S RNAs. Previously, the main target of photoincorporation of [3H]tetracycline into ribosomal proteins was shown to be S7, which is also part of the one strong binding site of tetracycline on the 30S subunit. The crosslinks on 23S RNA map exclusively to the central loop of domain V (G2505, G2576 and G2608) which is part of the peptidyl transferase region. However, experiments performed with chimeric ribosomal subunits demonstrate that peptidyltransferase activity is not affected by tetracycline crosslinked solely to the 50S subunits. Three different positions are labelled on the 16S RNA, G693, G1300 and G1338. The positions of these crosslinked nucleotides correlate well with footprints on the 16S RNA produced either by tRNA or the protein S7. This suggests that the nucleotides are labelled by tetracycline bound to the strong binding site on the 30S subunit. In addition, our results demonstrate that the well known inhibition of tRNA binding to the A-site is solely due to tetracycline crosslinked to 30S subunits and furthermore suggest that interactions of the antibiotic with 16S RNA might be involved in its mode of action. 相似文献

Chemically modified tetracycline (4-de-dimethylamino tetracycline), like commercially available tetracyclines, is known to inhibit experimentally induced pathologic collagen breakdown. A method for measurement of chemically modified tetracycline in small volumes (50 μl) of rat serum was developed using reversed-phase HPLC; this was necessary because this tetracycline analog lacks antimicrobial activity and, therefore, cannot be measured with standard bioassays. This method uses the same solution for extraction and elution thus providing a simple and rapid assay for both drugs. Using this technique, the concentration of chemically modified tetracycline and tetracycline were determined in rat serum at different times after oral administration. The serum concentration of chemically modified tetracycline was much higher than that for tetracycline, and its serum half-life was greater. The IC50 of chemically modified tetracycline and tetracycline, as inhibitors of collagenase from rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes, was determined and found to be 4.1 × 10−8m (0.02 μg/ml) and 2.4 × 10−4m (120 μg/ml), respectively. Based on the serum levels of these drugs after oral administration, and their IC50 values, chemically modified tetracycline is potentially a far more potent inhibitor of excess collagenase activity than tetracycline, during pathologic conditions, and may have the added advantage of not producing some of the typical complications of long-term antibiotic therapy. 相似文献

近年来,抗生素的环境污染问题已引起人们的广泛关注,其在环境中的残留可对水生态系统的结构和功能产生重要影响。迄今,盐酸四环素浓度和食物密度对轮虫生活史特征的影响研究尚未见报道。以萼花臂尾轮虫(Brachionus calyciflorus)为受试动物,研究了在不同斜生栅藻(Scenedesmus obliquus)密度下,不同浓度的盐酸四环素(Tetracycline hydrochloride)对萼花臂尾轮虫生活史特征的影响。结果表明,食物密度和盐酸四环素浓度对轮虫的生命期望、净生殖率、世代时间、内禀增长率、平均寿命和后代混交率,以及食物密度和盐酸四环素浓度间交互作用对除了内禀增长率外的其他5个统计学参数均具有显著影响。在各食物密度下,轮虫的特定年龄繁殖率高峰值随着盐酸四环素浓度的增加呈现先增加后降低的趋势;盐酸四环素对轮虫生长和繁殖参数的影响呈现"低促高抑"的特点。3个食物密度下,高浓度的盐酸四环素显著提高了萼花臂尾轮虫的后代混交率,且在1.0×10~6个/mL藻密度下毒物浓度与轮虫后代混交率间具有显著的剂量-效应关系。食物密度的高低显著影响盐酸四环素对萼花臂尾轮虫的毒性效应。 相似文献

Fifty-one patients with acne vulgaris were included in a double-blind trial to assess the therapeutic effect of 250 mg. tetracycline hydrochloride twice daily for three months. The results, assessed clinically and photographically, showed that tetracycline hydrochloride had a statistically significant beneficial effect. Hence, since it is cheap and rarely has side-effects in healthy young adults, its use is suggested, as well as local therapy, in the more severe forms of acne. 相似文献
