Title: [Effect of terrilytin on tissue bacteriostatic activity in the chemotherapy of renal and female genital tuberculosis in an experiment]. Author: Iagafarova RK, Rekel' IuI, Vishnevskiĭ BI. Journal: Antibiot Med Biotekhnol; 1986 Apr; 31(4):294-7. PubMed ID: 2424365. Abstract: The effect of terrilytin on the bacteriostatic activity of the tissues (BAT) under conditions of antibacterial therapy was studied on experimental models of tuberculosis of the kidneys and female genitalia in 46 rabbits. It was shown statistically that terrilytin promoted an increase in the BAT and might be used as an agent increasing the effect of antibacterial therapy of tuberculosis. The level of the increase of the BAT depended on its initial level which was inversely proportional to the level of the lesions. At the same time the effect of terrilytin was directly proportional to the level of these lesions unfavourable for the drug penetration into the tissues and tuberculous foci. The results of the study are promising in increasing the efficacy of antibacterial therapy of extrapulmonary tuberculosis of the above localizations by the use of terrilytin.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
