Potentiation of antiviral activity of acyclovir by polyene macrolide antibiotics.
The potentiation of the antiviral activity of acyclovir [9-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]guanine] by polyene macrolide antibiotics has been studied as a function of the macrolide structure. The 12 polyenes chosen for this study represented the major structural groups of these antibiotics and induced in mammalian cells repairable membrane alterations or irreversible cell damage. The potentiating acti...
متن کاملHydrazides--a novel type of derivatives of polyene macrolide antifungal antibiotics.
properties ofpolyene macrolides wehave established the structure-activity relationship among the derivatives of amphotericin B, the polyene antibiotic most commonly used in clinical practice11}. It has been shown in these studies that the improvement of selective toxicity is related to the absence of a free carboxyl group in the modified antibiotic molecule. Wehave also demonstrated that water ...

Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae FL200 capable of growing on a solid medium containing a mixture of polyene macrolide antibiotics (nystatin, 40 micrograms/ml, amphotericin B, 40 micrograms/ml, pimaricin, 150 micrograms/ml and RP9971 antibiotic, 10 micrograms/ml) have been isolated after successive selection steps. The mutant strains, PR13 and PRC24, are 10 to 100 times more resistant than th...
متن کاملTrichomycin B, a polyene macrolide from Streptomyces.
Two polyene macrolide, trichomycins A and B, were compared by physico-chemical and microbiological methods. The two antibiotics were found to have the same molecular formula, C58H84N2O18 (MW 1,096), by elemental analysis and FAB-MS. However, 1H and 13C NMR spectrometry studies indicated that the hydroxyl at C-5 of trichomycin A located on C-9 in trichomycin B. Trichomycin B possessed lower acti...
