Цель исследования — анализ влияния десяти 6-часовых циклов воздействия высоких концентраций (16 мкг/мл) гентамицина in vitro на изменение фенотипа и генотипа аминогликозидочувствительных штаммов S.aureus, относящихся к четырём сиквенс-типам: ST5 (ATCC 29213), ST8, ST97 и ST22 (MRSA). Для всех штаммов, кроме ATCC 29213, после селекции отмечалось увеличение МПК гентамицина до 8–64 мкг/мл. Один штамм (SA0937) диссоциировал на три морфотипа, включая мелкоколониевый вариант (small colony variant, SCV). Вариант производного штамма SA0937 с колониями нормального размера характеризовался ассоциированной устойчивостью к даптомицину за счёт мутации P314L в MprF. Формирование устойчивости не сопровождалось изменением скорости роста, кроме морфотипа SCV. Для штамма ATCC 29213 после селекции отмечалось появление толерантности, проявляющейся в увеличении эффективного киллинга до 14 ч в 24-часовом time-killing эксперименте с концентрацией антибиотика 16 мкг/мл. У штамма ATCC 29213 выявлены мутации в пептидил т-РНК гидролазе (Pth). У трёх штаммов были обнаружены делеции в гене atpG, входящим в состав АТФ-синтазного комплекса. У остальных производных штаммов были выявлены делеции и мутации в генах метаболизма менахинона hepS, menA и трансляционном факторе элонгации G (fusA). Таким образом, использование гентамицина сопряжено с возможным быстрым формированием устойчивости и толерантности, не связанными с приобретением генов аминогликозид-модифицирующих ферментов. Выявление SCV ассоциировано с неблагоприятными клиническими исходами.

The screening identified copolymers that showed high activity against all three viruses. It was found that the introduction of various functional groups into the structure of NaSS did not decrease antiviral activity, but significantly reduced cytotoxicity. The molecular weight has also shown a noticeable effect on the activity.

Purpose. Assessment of acute toxicity of the quinazoline derivative 3-[2-oxo-2-(4-phenylpiperazine-1yl)ethyl] quinazoline-4(3h)-oh, exhibiting antimicrobial activity. Material and methods. All experiments were carried out on non-linear mature female rats with a body weight of 180–190 g. Female individuals were in the diestrus stage. The rats were divided into groups (n=6) by a random sample, there were 4 individuals in each group and were kept in cages for a week before the experiment, getting used to laboratory conditions: animals receiving intragastric equiobjection of distilled water (control); experimental animals treated with the compound VMA-10-21 at doses of 1000, 2000; 5000 mg/kg (the doses were selected based on the fact that the study of the toxicity of pyrimidine derivatives with a similar chemical structure showed their relative safety and the absence of lethality from a dose of 500 mg/kg). Results. Assessment of acute toxicity of the quinazoline derivative 3-[2-oxo-2-(4-phenylpiperazine-1yl)ethyl]quinazoline-4(3h)-oh with intragastric administration showed that this compound belongs to class 5 toxicity and is low-toxic according to.

However, despite the results obtained, when this compound was administered at a dose of 5000 mg/kg, changes in hemoglobin, the number of leukocytes and platelets, as well as total protein were observed, which may indicate the possible development of pathological changes in the hematopoietic and hepatobiliary systems. Conclusion. Thus, the quinazoline derivative 3-[2-oxo-2-(4-phenylpiperazine-1yl)ethyl]quinazoline-4(3h)-oh with intragastric administration is low-toxic and belongs to the 5th class of toxicity, and therefore the maximum dose is 5000 mg/kg for LD₅₀.

The requirements of modern clinical guidelines for the treatment of respiratory viral infections suggest the possibility of identifying a specific viral pathogen. In this regard, the search for drugs with selective activity against respiratory syncytial virus and parainfluenza virus is relevant. The purpose of the work is to study the antiviral activity of the drug Cytovir®-3 in vitro in relation to the cytopathogenic effect of respiratory viruses (parainfluenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus). Material and methods. The antiviral effect of Cytovir®-3 in comparison with Umifenovir against parainfluenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus was studied on Vero cell culture. Drugs were administered 1 hour before (prophylactic regimen) and 1 hour after (treatment regimen) infection of the cell culture with respiratory viruses. The working range of concentrations of the studied drugs was calculated based on the values of 50% cytotoxic concentration calculated based on the results of a quantitative microtetrazole test. Results and discussion. The drug Cytovir®-3 in two schemes of application (therapeutic or prophylactic) showed its antiviral efficacy in vitro against respiratory syncytial virus and parainfluenza virus due in the non-toxic range (0–794 µg/ml). At the same time, the suppressive effect of the drug Cytovir®-3 against the parainfluenza virus begins at lower concentrations of the drug with its early (preventive) introduction into cell culture (250 mcg/ml). Conclusion. Antiviral activity of Cytovir®-3 has been proven in vitro against parainfluenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus.

Evaluation of the effectiveness of anti-interleukin drugs used in the pathogenetic therapy of COVID-19 in relation to the relative risks of 28-day mortality and the odds ratio of 14-day improvement of symptoms of the disease.

A systematic review of publications concerning the evaluation of the effectiveness of these drugs recommended for use as COVID-19 pathogenetic therapy, with meta-analysis and indirect comparison of the data obtained, was carried out. Results. The meta-analysis included 15 randomized and 8 non-randomized studies. In direct comparison of anti-interleukin drugs with controls, it was demonstrated that only tocilizumab and anakinra surpass standard therapy in terms of the relative risk of 28-day mortality (RR 0.85 [95% CI 0.74; 0.97] and 0.5 [95% CI 0.32; 0.80], respectively).
