  • Title: [Study of the action of nystatin on the plasmatic membranes of the liver of rabbits].
    Author: Kravchenko LS, Sokolov VN, Tereshin IN.
    Journal: Antibiotiki; 1975 Jun; 20(7):658-64. PubMed ID: 1225216.
    Abstract:
    The effect of mystatin on the plasmic membranes of the rabbit liver after intravenous administration of the antibiotic to the animals in a dose of 5 mg/kg was studied. It was found that intravenous administration of nystatin had no effect on the quantitative content of protein, lipids and nucleic acids in the plasmic membranes of the liver. The method of electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel revealed significant changes in the composition of the liver membrane protein due to the treatment with nystatin. The effect of nystatin on the composition of lipids and fatty acids contained in the membrane lipids was also investigated. The data of the thin layer chromatography showed that nystatin did not affect the qualitative composition and the content of separate lipid fractions in the lipids of the liver plasmic membranes. However, the fatty acid analysis of the membrane lipids after intravenous administration of nystatin revealed a number of qualitative and quantitative differences in the composition of the lipid fatty acids of the membranes tested. The results showed that nystatin affected the membrane structures of the rabbit liver cells.
