Inhibition of aminoglycoside activity in heparin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measurements of aminoglycosides by an agar disk diffusion assay are inhibited by heparin in a dose-dependent way. When assayed by a homogeneous immunoassay, this was only evident for tobramycin. This indicates that specimens for aminoglycoside measurement should not be obtained in heparinized tubes. When heparin is used clinically as an anticoagulant, the amount in blood does not reach levels that affect the aminoglycoside activity.

Inhibition of neural phospholipase D activity by aminoglycoside antibiotics.
The effects of aminoglycoside antibiotics on phospholipase D (PLD) activity were investigated in permeabilized NG108-15 cells and in isolated rat brain membranes. Neomycin inhibited guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate-stimulated PLD activity in digitonin-permeabilized NG108-15 cells in a concentration-dependent manner (50% inhibition at 100 microM). Neomycin similarly inhibited PLD activity p...
متن کاملStructure-guided optimization of protein kinase inhibitors reverses aminoglycoside antibiotic resistance.
Activity of the aminoglycoside phosphotransferase APH(3')-Ia leads to resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics in pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria, and contributes to the clinical obsolescence of this class of antibiotics. One strategy to rescue compromised antibiotics such as aminoglycosides is targeting the enzymes that confer resistance with small molecules. We demonstrated previously that ...
متن کاملIn vitro studies with UK-18,892, a new aminoglycoside antibiotic.
The antibacterial activity of UK-18,892, a new semisynthetic aminoglycoside, was examined against aminoglycoside-susceptible and aminoglycoside-resistant clinical isolates of gram-negative bacilli and Staphylococcus aureus. UK-18,892 had a similar degree of activity to those of amikacin and kanamycin A against aminoglycoside-susceptible bacteria but was less potent than gentamicin against all i...
متن کاملAbsence of lipoprotein lipase in cultured human adipose stromal cells.
To develop a system for studying the regulation of adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in human cells, we isolated cells from the stromalvascular fraction of human adipose tissue and propagated them in tissue culture. These cells were cultured in medium containing fetal bovine, horse, or human sera in the absence or presence of aminoglycoside antibiotics. After the cells had been at conflue...

Background & Aim: Abdominal surgery may lead to intra-abdominal adhesion. Therefore scientists suggest different methods to prevent this problem. Use of heparin, by its mechanism of coagulation pathway inhibition, is one of these methods. The aim of this study was the comparison of various methods of heparin administration in prevention of post-surgical abdominal adhesion. Materials and Met...
