Santa Cruz del Norte, La Habana CEFALOSPORINAS José Raúl Andraca Perera,1 Enrique Rodríguez Gil2 y Alexander Fundora Santana3 RESUMEN Se realiza una revisión y síntesis de información sobre un grupo importante de antibióticos: las cefalosporinas. Se señalan aspectos tan diversos como su origen, mecanismo de acción, farmacocinética, clasificación, actividad in vitro, así como sus dosificaciones e indicaciones, con el propósito de lograr en nuestros médicos generales integrales un perfeccionamiento y actualización en el uso clínico de estos agentes antimicrobianos.

A severe pandemic, which is caused by a novel coronavirus named total of 3581 small molecule compounds with known molecular Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).1 structures from FDA Approved Drug Library, Spectrum Collection, COVID-19 is a serious threat to healthcare systems, economies, and TargetMol-Natural Compound Library were assessed (Fig. 1d). and is devastating to some populations, such as the elderly and The assay was conducted at a final compound concentration of those with comorbidities. It is likely to coexist with human beings 10 μM and the interaction between S-RBD-His (0.1 μM) and ACE2- for a long time. Unfortunately, there is still no effective cure for ECD-Biotin (0.2 μM) was analyzed. After the first-round screening, COVID-19, especially the critically ill patients. 75 candidate compounds were identified, which showed an Spike (S) protein on the surface of SARS-CoV-2 facilitates viral inhibitory effect on S-RBD–ACE2 interaction (Fig. 1d). All these entry into target cells by mediating virus receptor recognition and compounds showed over 45% inhibition rate according to the membrane fusion, which contains an S1 subunit at the N terminus changes in AlphaScreen signal.

Method: We perform a non-systematic review using Google Scholar platform approaching the relationship between seizures and the most used antibiotics classes in clinical practice. Results and Discussion: 34 papers in English language were used for this review. Conclusion: Rarely antibiotics may cause seizures, mainly in patients with renal dysfunction, hepatic or previous brain disease. It is important to learn about drugs at greatest risk of seizures in each class of antibiotics. The treatment involves the use of correct medications, primarilygabaergic drugs, avoiding ineffective anticonvulsants. Keywords: Seizures; Penicillins; Cephalosporins; Quinolones Introduction

Storage: 2 years -80°C in solvent; 3 years -20°C powder; DMSO 4.8 mM Solubility Water 8.1 mM ( < 1 mg/ml refers to the product slightly soluble or insoluble ) Receptor (IC50) Others In vitro Activity Cefoselis inhibits GABA-induced currents in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 of 185 mM. [1] Cefoselis possesses a superior antistaphylococcal activity on MSSA isolates to both other compounds being however equal active to Cefepime and Cefpirome on multiresistant enterobacteriaceae. [2] Cefoselis is dose-dependently appeared in brain extracellular fluid in proportion to its blood level. [3] Cefoselis, a new parenteral cephalosporin, is active against clinical isolates of both gram- positive and gram-negative aerobic bacteria.
