Rifampin and Their Analogs: A Development of Antitubercular Drugs
نویسنده
چکیده
There has been considerable interest in various analogues of antitubercular drugs particularly against multidrug and extensively drug resistant tuberculosis because mycobacterium species has developed resistant against available drugs. The currently used antitubercular also causes some serious toxic effects and also require long period of therapy for the treatment. Therefore, various new drugs and analogues of currently used antitubercular drugs were prepared with minimum side effects or effective against multidrug and extensively drug resistant strains of tuberculosis. In present review we discussed about brief introduction of tuberculosis followed the rifampicin and their analogues which are effective against tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis was declared as a global pandemic and panic because the causative Mycobacterium tuberculosis can kill an incredible number of individuals which formulate a major obstacle to social and economic development of the country. Most of the developing countries are affected by tuberculosis. Antitubercular therapy involves the use of Directly Observed Therapy Short (DOTS) course for 6-9 mo...

Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) microparticles were developed as carriers for isoniazid and rifampin in order to improve compliance of tuberculous chemotherapy. Antitubercular drugs encapsulated in PLG polymers and injected in a single dose subcutaneously resulted in a sustained release (up to 6 weeks) of drugs in various organs of mice. Further, Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv-infected ...

One recent promising development in the modification of drug formulations to improve chemotherapy is the use of a liposome-mediated drug delivery system. The efficacies of isoniazid and rifampin encapsulated in lung-specific stealth liposomes were evaluated by injecting liposomal drugs and free drugs into tuberculous mice twice a week for 6 weeks. Liposome-encapsulated drugs at and below therap...

Pyridazine plays a significant role in pharmaceuticals particularly in the field of medicinal chemistry. Several 4-substituted-benzylidene-6-substituted-phenyl-dihydro-pyridazin-3(2H)-one derivatives (3a-q) were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activities with an aim to obtain promising antitubercular agents. In the first step, 6-aryl-tetrahydro-pyridazin-3-ones (2) were prepar...

Keeping in view the drawbacks associated with research on anti-TB drugs based on plant extracts and the non-availability of fluorinated natural products with antitubercular activity has prompted us to make an effort towards the synthesis and characterization of a novel series of fifteen substituted fluorobenzimidazoles. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by I.R, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR,...
