Absence of ototoxicity of teichomycin A2 in guinea pigs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Teichomycin A2 is a new antibiotic that is similar to vancomycin. Because vancomycin is reported to be ototoxic, teichomycin A2 was tested for ototoxicity. No evidence of ototoxicity was found. Furthermore, ethacrynic acid, a diuretic that augments the ototoxicity of many drugs, did not enhance ototoxicity with teichomycin A2.

متن کاملA Dose-Effect Study of Cisplatin Ototoxicity in Albino Guinea Pigs
Introduction: Cisplatin is one of the most commonly used antineoplastic drugs; nonetheless, its ototoxic dose-limiting side effects have remained a significant challenge in clinical practice. The recognition of the exact template of hearing loss induced by multiple low doses of cisplatin could be of great help in managing the treatment process. The present study aimed to investigate the e...

Receptor affinity and drug delivery to the receptor sites could be determinant factors for the increased bronchial responsiveness seen in asthma. Competitive antagonism blockade which is measured as dose ratio-l (DR-I) depends only on these two factors. Therefore, in this study we have examined histamine HI blockade by chlorpheniramine on isolated tracheal chains of asthmatic compared to co...

Male guinea pigs show high susceptibility to Burkholderia mallei and have been used as animal models in glanders studies. The purpose of our study was to elucidate glanders comparative pathogenesis in guinea pigs. We present here the histological changes and bacterial isolation that develop over time in guinea pigs inoculated intraperitoneally (IP) with two strain of B. mallei. Ten male guinea ...
