Chemical compound and disease context of Ornidazole

 

Biological context of Ornidazole

  • Pharmacokinetics of ornidazole in patients with severe liver cirrhosis [3].
  • Restoration of fertility and normal sperm motility and velocity were observed in the group of recovery rats assessed 2 weeks after the cessation of ornidazole treatment [14].
  • The effects of the male antifertility agent ornidazole on glycolysis as a prerequisite for fertilization were investigated in rats [13].
  • DJ-1 was identified as an activated ras-dependent oncogene product, and was also found to be an infertility-related protein (contraception-associated protein 1; CAP 1) that was reduced in rat spermatozoa treated with ornidazole, one of the endocrine disrupting substances that causes reversible infertility in rats [15].
  • Male rats were treated for 61 days prior to mating and female rats were treated for 2 weeks prior to mating and throughout gestation and lactation at doses of 0 (control), 25, 100, and 400 mg of ornidazole/kg/day [16].

Gene context of Ornidazole

  • Epididymal fluid from rats rendered infertile by oral administration of ornidazole contains a protein CAP1 (contraception-associated protein 1) that is absent from epididymal fluid, but present on epididymal sperm, from fertile vehicle-treated rats [22].
  • DJ-1 was first identified as an activated ras-dependent oncogene product and was later also found to be an infertility-related protein affected by sperm toxicants such as ornidazole (OR) and epichlorohydrin [23].
  • Flow cytometric analysis of sperm from ornidazole-fed rats revealed a significant decline (of 22%-24%) in the amount of sperm surface CAP1 compared with controls, which is associated with an altered location on the sperm head [24].
  • OBJECTIVE: To review the literature on novel immunomodulators such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)- and interleukin (IL)-related agents, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), tacrolimus, and leflunomide, and antibiotics such as ornidazole, rifaximin, and ciprofloxacin for the treatment of Crohn's disease [25].
  • Mean-maximal (15 min) and last-determined (24 h) ornidazole levels in serum were 24 +/- 5.2 and 6.3 +/- 1.4 mg/liter, respectively. beta-Phase elimination half-life was 14.1 +/- 2.7 h, and clearance and apparent volume of distribution were 47 +/- 12 ml/min and 0.9 +/- 0.13 liters/kg, respectively [9].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Ornidazole

  • Plasma concentrations of ornidazole and its two major hydroxylated metabolites, M1 [alpha-(chloromethyl)-2-hydroxymethyl-5-nitroimidazole-1-ethanol] and M4 [3-(2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole 1-yl)-1,2-propane diol] were measured by HPLC assay [4].
  • During the operation the concentration in serum was 7.90 +/- 0.57 microgram/ml, and in appendix tissue, 5.26 +/- 0.60 microgram/g. In the series of 200 patients undergoing appendectomy, six patients treated with ornidazole and 12 patients treated with placebo developed a wound infection [17].
  • Ceftriaxone and ornidazole concentrations were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography [7].
  • Concentrations in serum and tissue were determined after intravenous infusion of 500 mg of ornidazole 15 min prior to appendectomy [17].
  • Plasma and epiploic fat drug concentrations and fat penetration of ceftriaxone and ornidazole given for antimicrobial prophylaxis were studied in 11 patients scheduled for liver transplantation [7].
