The problem of significantly reduced drug use concerns particularly the infections caused by multi-resistant pathogens, especially Gram-negative bacteria. In this regard, interest is increasing in the known for nearly 50 years, but now frequently forgotten antibiotic – fosfomycin. Fosfomycin possesses high effectiveness for multidrug-resistant bacteria, comprising of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL), Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPC); commonly, the pandrug-resistant (PDR) and the extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains, especially from Enterobacteriaceae family. Because of facilitated distribution into inflamed tissues and a very broad range of in vitro bactericidal activity, fosfomycin may have various applications in the treatment of many kinds of bacterial infections, including acute uncomplicated infections of the urinary bladder or complicated urinary tract infections, urinary tract sepsis, pyelonephritis, cystitis, prostatitis and chronic lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis, the great majority caused by multi-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, and in the therapy eradicating multidrug-resistant Helicobacter pylori. Fosfomycin may limit the toxicity of other antibiotics and play a protective role in the process of bacterial resistance development during the therapy. Combinations of different antimicrobials enable the use of forgotten antibiotics in commonly occurring infections, although they are still completely incurable.
The collection of 314 staphylococcal strains including Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) was isolated from skin or nasopharynx of healthy people. It was found that the majority of staphylococci possessed the ability to produce slime intensively or moderately, irrespective of ecological niche-nose, throat or skin. Most of them showed the hydrophilic cell surface. However, among S. aureus skin isolates or CNS throat isolates predominated strains with hydrophobic cell surface. There was a slight correlation between slime production and the nature of cell surface among CNS isolates but not among S. aureus strains. It was found that most of slime-producing CNS strains showed hydrophilic cell surface, while slime-negative isolates usually possessed hydrophobic cell surface. Our data suggest that slime production but not cell surface hydrophobicity can be regarded as an essential colonization factor responsible for staphylococci adherence to skin or mucous membranes of upper respiratory tract. These data also suggest that slime production seems to be a general feature of staphylococci isolated from various niches of healthy people.
In the course of acute pancreatitis the liver is an organ that is especially exposed to damage. The presence of adenosine receptors was observed in the whole digestive system. The aim of the experiment was to define the correlation between the extinction of cytochrome P450 in the liver of rats and adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists in the course of necrotizing acute pancreatitis. The experiments were carried out on Wistar male rats weighing 250 g. Acute pancreatitis was induced injecting 5% sodium taurocholate to the biliary-pancreatic duct. Prior to the induction of acute pancreatitis the animals were injected intraperitoneally with selective agonists and antagonists: CGS 21680 (selective A2 agonist), 3 mg/kg, ZM 241385 (selective A2a antagonist), 3 mg/kg, DPCPX (A1 antagonist), 1 mg/kg, 1.3-Dipropyl-8-phenylxantine (selective A1 antagonist), 3 mg/kg, IB-MECA (A3 agonist), 0.75 mg/kg. The determinations were performed in hepatic microsomes obtained according to Guegenrichs method Cytochrome P450 extinction was determined by Matsubars technique. The results obtained reveal statistically significantly decreased cytochrome P450 extinction after sodium taurocholate administration. Decreased levels of extinction were also observed after combined administration of sodium taurocholate + Phenylxantine and sodium taurocholate + ZM. The level of IB-MECA remained unchanged in comparison to the controls. However DPCPX and CGS administration increased the extinction of cytochrome P450. The diverse influence of adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists used in the experiment on cytochrom P450 extinction seems to modify the course of the inflammatory process after using 5% sodium taurocholate.
