Context Mediates Antimicrobial Efficacy of Kinocidin Congener Peptide RP-1
Structure-mechanism relationships are key determinants of host defense peptide efficacy. These relationships are influenced by anatomic, physiologic and microbiologic contexts. Structure-mechanism correlates were assessed for the synthetic peptide RP-1, modeled on microbicidal domains of platelet kinocidins. Antimicrobial efficacies and mechanisms of action against susceptible ((S)) or resistan...
متن کاملRenoprotective Effect of Eryngium Caucasicum in Gentamicin-induced Nephrotoxic Mice
Recent studies show that hydrogen peroxide free radicals have an important role in the renal damage induced by Gentamicin. Previously we studied the hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity of Eryngium caucasicum. This work was conducted to evaluate the possible renoprotective effect of Eryngium caucasicum against Gentamicin-induced renotoxicity. Extracts at the doses 200 and 400 mg/kg/day for 10 ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial efficacy of gentamicin-loaded acrylic bone cements with fusidic acid or clindamycin added.
The increasing gentamicin resistance among bacteria in septic joint arthroplasty has stimulated interest in adding a second antibiotic into gentamicin-loaded bone cement. A first aim of this in vitro study is to investigate whether addition of fusidic acid or clindamycin to gentamicin-loaded bone cement has an additional antimicrobial effect against a collection of 38 clinical isolates, includi...
متن کاملSilica-Gentamicin Nanohybrids: Synthesis and Antimicrobial Action
Orthopedic applications commonly require the administration of systemic antibiotics. Gentamicin is one of the most commonly used aminoglycosides in the treatment and prophylaxis of infections associated with orthopedic applications, but gentamicin has a short half-life. However, silica nanoparticles (SiO₂ NPs) can be used as elegant carriers for antibiotics to prolong their release. Our goal is...
متن کاملOnce-daily dosed gentamicin is more nephrotoxic than once-daily dosed tobramycin in clinically infected patients.
1 integron showed 100% nucleotide sequence identity to the corresponding segment of a plasmid from the human clinical P. aeruginosa strain B3 isolated in Guangzhou (accession no. EU588392). Moreover, the 3 ′ conserved region of the integron (qacED1 and sul1) and the upstream region of the bla IMP-45 gene including aacA4, the 5 ′ conserved segment (intI1) of the integron and a Tn1403-like transp...
