Effects of clarithromycin exposure on the growth of Microcystis aeruginosa and the production of algal dissolved organic matter
Aquat Toxicol. 2024 Apr 6;271:106918. doi: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2024.106918. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAntibiotics are commonly found in the aquatic environment, which can affect microbial community compositions and activities, and even have potential adverse impacts on human and ecosystem health. The current understanding of the effects of antibiotics on microalgae growth and algal dissolved organic matter (DOM) remains indistinct. To understand the toxic effects of antibiotics on the microalgae, Microcystis aeruginosa was exposed to clarithromycin (CLA) in this study. Cell density determination, chlorophyll content dete...

Amoxicillin/clavulanate in combination with rifampicin/clarithromycin is bactericidal against < i > Mycobacterium ulcerans < /i >
Conclusions/SignificanceOur study suggests that alternative and faster TKA methodologies can be used in BU research instead of the cumbersome CFU quantification method. These results provide anin vitro microbiological support to of the BLMs4BU clinical trial (NCT05169554,PACTR202209521256638) to shorten BU treatment. (Source: PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases)

A Rare Case of Lemierre ’s Syndrome due to Veillonella Parvula: A Dangerous and Forgotten Complication of a Septic Condition
AbstractThis clinical case presents an unusual case of Lemierre ’s syndrome (LS) in a young woman of 38-year-old. She arrived in the Emergency Department with a high fever and pharyngology resistant to antibiotic therapy with clarithromycin, ceftriaxone, and cortisone for two weeks. At the blood sampling, there is a marked leucocytosis, and the advice of the o tolaryngologist is required given the strong pain in the throat. Due to the tonsillar abscess, a neck CT with a contrast medium is necessary for the otolaryngologist’s opinion. The CT shows thrombosis of the jugular vein and left subclavian, with thickening of so...

Application of non-lethal bioSPME-LC-MS/MS for the detection of human pharmaceuticals in soft corals: A survey at the North Nilandhe atoll (Maldives)
Chemosphere. 2024 Mar 28:141781. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141781. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAt present the information regarding the occurrence of human pharmaceuticals (PhaCs) in coral reefs and their potential impacts on the associated fauna is limited. To optimize the collection of data in these delicate environments, we employed a solid-phase microextraction (bioSPME) and liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) procedure that enabled in vivo determinations in soft corals. Specifically, we researched the antibiotics Ofloxacin Sulfamethoxazole and Clarithromycin, the anti-inflammat...

An all-in-one therapeutic platform for the treatment of resistant Helicobacter pylori infection
Biomaterials. 2024 Mar 21;308:122540. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122540. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is a major cause of gastric diseases. Currently, bismuth-based quadruple therapy is widely adopted for eradicating H. pylori infection. However, this first-line strategy faces several challenges such as drug resistance, intestinal dysbacteriosis, and patients' poor compliance. To overcome these problems, an all-in-one therapeutic platform (CLA-Bi-ZnO2@Lipo) that composed of liposomes loading clarithromycin (CLA), Bi, and ZnO2 hybrid nanoparticles was developed for eradicatin...

Effects of Clarithromycin and Ketoconazole on FK506 Metabolism in Different CYP3A4 Genotype Recombinant Metabolic Enzyme Systems
CONCLUSION: Compared with CYP3A4*1, CYP3A4*18 has a greater metabolism of FK506, clarithromycin and ketoconazole can inhibit both the enzymatic activities of CYP3A4*1 and CYP3A4*18, consequently affecting the metabolism of FK506 and the inhibitory on CYP3A4*1 is stronger.PMID:38523538 | DOI:10.2174/0113892002286019240315052145 (Source: Current Drug Metabolism)
