Prevention and modulation of aminoglycoside ototoxicity (Review).
More than 60 years after their isolation and characterization, aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics remain powerful agents in the treatment of severe gram-negative, enterococcal or mycobacterial infections. However, the clinical use of AGs is hampered by nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, which often develop as a consequence of prolonged courses of therapy, or of administration of increased doses of th...
متن کاملAminoglycoside Antibiotics
Aminoglycosides are hydrophilic, polycationic, aminecontaining carbohydrates that are usually composed of three to five rings. Most aminoglycosides are either natural products or derivatives of soil actinomycetes. They are often secreted by these actinomycetes as mixtures of closely related compounds. The polycationic aminoglycoside chemical structure results in a binding both to the anionic ou...
متن کاملMechanisms of Aminoglycoside Ototoxicity and Targets of Hair Cell Protection
Aminoglycosides are commonly prescribed antibiotics with deleterious side effects to the inner ear. Due to their popular application as a result of their potent antimicrobial activities, many efforts have been undertaken to prevent aminoglycoside ototoxicity. Over the years, understanding of the antimicrobial as well as ototoxic mechanisms of aminoglycosides has increased. These mechanisms are ...
متن کاملAminoglycoside antibiotics inhibit protein biosynthesis
RNA molecules have key roles in many essential biological processes, including protein synthesis, transcriptional regulation, mRNA splicing and retroviral replication. The structural diversity of RNA, together with the lack of known RNA repair mechanisms, make RNA a challenging and important target for therapeutic intervention [1]. Our understanding of the modes by which RNA is recognized by li...
متن کاملDNA-Aptamers Binding Aminoglycoside Antibiotics
Aptamers are short, single stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotides that are able to bind specifically and with high affinity to their non-nucleic acid target molecules. This binding reaction enables their application as biorecognition elements in biosensors and assays. As antibiotic residues pose a problem contributing to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens and thereby reducing the eff...
