[Effect of rifampicin and doxycycline on the chemiluminescence of leukocytes]. 1991

A V Nikitin, and T V Smolkina, and A I Zebrev

The effect of rifampicin and doxycycline on spontaneous and zymosan-induced chemiluminescence of polymorphonuclear leukocytes was studied on guinea pigs. The cells were incubated in the presence of the antibiotics, washed and stimulated by zymosan. Under such conditions rifampicin in therapeutic doses of 0.1 to 10 micrograms/kg and doxycycline in a dose of 100 micrograms/kg potentiated the leukocyte chemiluminescence. Investigation of the antibiotics effect on the cells without washing failed because of the direct interference of rifampicin and doxycycline with the cell-independent stage of the chemiluminescent reaction.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012293 Rifampin A semisynthetic antibiotic produced from Streptomyces mediterranei. It has a broad antibacterial spectrum, including activity against several forms of Mycobacterium. In susceptible organisms it inhibits DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity by forming a stable complex with the enzyme. It thus suppresses the initiation of RNA synthesis. Rifampin is bactericidal, and acts on both intracellular and extracellular organisms. (From Gilman et al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 9th ed, p1160) Rifampicin,Benemycin,Rifadin,Rimactan,Rimactane,Tubocin
