Promising antituberculosis activity of the oxazolidinone PNU-100480 relative to that of linezolid in a murine model.
Oxazolidinone antibiotics have activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Linezolid, the only marketed oxazolidinone, has been used off-label in combination regimens to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, but its precise contribution to the efficacy of such combinations is unclear. Another oxazolidinone, PNU-100480, has been demonstrated to have more potent activity in vitro and in a muri...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولSusceptibility of clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates to a potentially less toxic derivate of linezolid, PNU-100480.
Susceptibility of clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates to PNU-100480 and linezolid was evaluated by the MGIT 960 system. The isolates had various susceptibilities to isoniazid (INH), rifampin, ethambutol, and streptomycin. The mean MIC for PNU-100480 was 3.2 times lower than that for linezolid. Therefore, PNU-100480 is a promising candidate to be developed further as an adjunct in the t...
متن کاملIn vitro and in vivo activities of three oxazolidinones against nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Oxazolidinones represent a new class of antituberculosis drugs that exert their function by inhibiting protein synthesis. Here, we compared the activities of three oxazolidinones, linezolid, PNU-100480, and AZD5847, against latent tuberculosis using a simple model employing the streptomycin-starved Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain 18b. The in vitro drug susceptibility results showed that the t...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
