Bioactivity | Spiramycin hexanedioate (Rovamycin) is a macrolide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces ambofaciens with against bacteria and Toxoplasma gondii activities, and also has antiparasitic effect. Spiramycin hexanedioate is composed of a 16-member lactone ring, on which three sugars (mycaminose, forosamine, and mycarose) are attached[1][2]. |
Target | Bacterial |
Invitro | Spiramycin (24 hours; 1-1000 μM; T. gondii infected HeLa cells and HeLa cells) treatment reduces the cytotoxicity, and shows anti-Toxoplasma gondii activity, with IC50 values of 189 μM for HeLa cells; and 262 μM for T. gondii-infected HeLa cells[3]. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. 0 --> Spiramycin (hexanedioate) 相关抗体: Cell Viability Assay[3] Cell Line: |
In Vivo | Spiramycin (100 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every day; for 4 days; female KM mice) treatment reduces the number of tachyzoites, and reduces hepatotoxicity and significantly enhances antioxidative effects. Spiramycin treatment also decreases in the degree of granulomatous inflammation in the liver[3]. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
