[Effect of pefloxacin on immune response].

The influence on cellular immune response of different doses of the pefloxacin was studied in vivo as well as in vitro experiments. The pefloxacin in super bactericidal concentrations (2.0 mg/ml and 0.4 mg/ml) possess pronounced supressing effect the T-lymphocyte proliferation in blast transformation reaction. While in concentration 0.08 mg/ml pefloxacin does not show such activity. The pefloxacin in maximal effective concentration (200 mg/kg) suppressed activity in delayed hypersensitivity skin reaction of intact mice towards sheep erythrocytes on 20.3 percent only.

[Study of the immunotropic activity of aminoglycoside antibiotics].

The action of some aminoglycoside antibiotics on the immune system was studied on both intact mice and the animals with immune deficiency caused by administration of cyclophosphamide. The following tests were used: local hemolysis (the Herne test), lymphocyte transformation (LT), delayed hypersensitivity to sheep red blood cells and the local graft versus host reaction (GVHR). Amikacin was shown to have no significant action on the activity of lymphocytes in the intact mice and stimulated both cellular (LT and GVHR) and humoral (the Herne test) immunity in the animals with lowered immunological reactivity. Sisomicin had no significant action on the immune system of the animals. Gentamicin suppressed the immune response only in the intact mice. Kanamycin and streptomycin induced inhibition of humoral and cellular immunity in both the intact mice and animals with immune deficiency. On the basis of the results it was concluded that gentamicin, amikacin and sisomicin may be used in the treatment of diseases developing in the presence of immune deficiency whereas streptomycin and kanamycin should be recommended when inhibition of the immunity is needed.

[Effect of antibiotics on indices of immunologic reactivity in mice].

The effect of ristomycin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, benzylpenicillin, streptomycin, and cephaloridine on the indices of cellular and humoral immunity was studied comparatively on intact animals and on animals with secondary immune deficiency. The study of the antibiotic effect on the count of rosette-forming lymphocytes (RFL) and the total count of lymphocytes showed that all the antibiotics except streptomycin induced a significant decrease in the count of RFL. The most active was kanamycin. It lowered the count of RFL 5-fold as compared to the control. The total count of lymphocytes was lowered after administration of ristomycin, chloramphenicol and kanamycin. In the animals with immune deficiency induced by cyclophosphamide benzylpenicillin potentiated the inhibitory effect of cyclophosphamide on the weight of the lymphoid organs, while streptomycin lowered the effect of cyclophosphamide. No such effect was observed with the use of the other antibiotics. The data indicated the necessity of taking into account the effect of various antibiotics on the immune system, especially under conditions of immune deficiency.
