[Thymolytic activity of chlorimipramine].

Chloroimipramine in vitro on human lymphocytes stimulated by phytohaemoagglutinin at concentrations from 1 to 10 g/ml leads to mitotic block. Treatment of normal or suprarenalectomized rats with high doses of the drug administered orally leads to a reduction in the weight of the thymus. The hypothesis that chloroimipramine possibly plays a part in immunitary processes is put forward.

In vitro activity of sulphimidazole alone and in association with trimethoprim against enteric pathogens.

Sulphimidazole is a new sulphonamide belonging to the class of intestinal sulphonamides and characterized by the fact that it is active even in vitro. It has the heterocyclic ring of 5-nitroimidazoles on amidic nitrogen. Its antibacterial activity is similar to that of the classical sulphonamides but differs in that it also combats certain anaerobic bacteria such as Clostridium botulinum. This effect is completely absent in the case of sulphadiazine and sulphamethoxazole. Also, since p-amino-benzene-sulphonamide is present in the molecule, the drug acts in synergism with trimethoprim against certain aerobic or facultative strains of enteric pathogens.

In vitro activity of trimethoprim in association with sulfimidazole against aerobic gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms and Clostridia.

The in vitro activity of a chemotherapeutic agent, sulfimidazole (SIZ), obtained by combining two molecules belonging to groups of extremely different antibacterial drugs, p-aminobenzene sulfonamide and a derivative with a 5-nitroimidazole ring, was studied. In association with trimethoprim, SIZ induces an intense synergistic antibacterial effect on gram-negative and gram-positive aerobic microorganisms and Clostridia. The results show that, in SIZ, the activity of each starting molecule remains unchanged providing that its structure-action relationship is kept intact.
