General description

Tigecycline is used to treat complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI) and complicated intraabdominal infections.

Application

TIGECYCLINE HYDRATE has been used:
  • for antibiotic susceptibility testing
  • to study its effects on multiple nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines
  • to evaluate its effects on the binding of fluoroquinolones to human serum albumin
  • as a standard to investigate the penetration of tigecycline into cornea, aqueous humor and vitreous humor

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tigecycline is a broad spectrum glycylcycline antibiotic.
Tigecycline is a broad spectrum glycylcycline antibiotic. Tigecycline is bacteriostatic, that inhibits protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacteria and thereby blocking entry of Aminoacyl-tRNA into the A site of the ribosome during prokaryotic translation. Tigecycline is active against resistant strains of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, avoiding the two most common mechanisms of resistance to the tetracycline antimicrobials: tetracycline efflux pump proteins and ribosomal protection proteins.
