The results of the studies on interacellular distribution of amphotericin AM-2, a wate soluble derivative of amphotericin in the cells of the puppy kidney tissue culture exposed to the antibiotic in a concentration of 50 gamma per 1 ml medium for 17 hours are presented. It was found that the antibiotic was firmly bound with the kidney cells: 15.4 per cent of the initial amount of the antibiotic was detected in the washed cells. Analysis of the antibiotic distribution in separate subcellular components showed that sorption of amphotericin AM-2 by the plasmic membranes, nuclei and cytoplasm was respectively 18.3, 35.6 and 9.7 per cent of the amount absorbed by the cells. Binding of a significant amount of the antibiotic absorbed by the plasmic membranes and nuclei with the above fractions was reversible. The results of the study provided a supposition that amphotericin AM-2 penetrated into the cells of the kidney tissue which adds some new findings to the studies on the mechanism of action of polyenic antibiotics in cells.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
