Inhibition of influenza virus ribonucleic acid polymerase by ribavirin triphosphate.

abstract：:Gentamicin is a commonly used antibiotic for the treatment of gram-negative-bacterial infections. Bacterial endotoxin is liberated during antibiotic therapy, and we have shown that endotoxemic animals accumulate more aminoglycosides in their renal parenchyma than normal animals. Vasoactive mediators, such as prostagla...

abstract：:Fluoroquinolones are antibiotics with central excitatory side effects. These adverse effects presumably result from inhibition of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) binding to GABA(A) receptors. This GABA antagonistic effect is greatly potentiated by the active metabolite of fenbufen, biphenylacetic acid (BPAA). Neverthel...
