1. Clindamycin

Clindamycin is an orally active and broad-spectrum bacteriostatic lincosamide antibiotic. Clindamycin can inhibit bacterial protein synthesis, possessing the ability to suppress the expression of virulence factors in Staphylococcus aureus at sub-inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs). Clindamycin resistance results from enzymatic methylation of the antibiotic binding site in the 50S ribosomal subunit (23S rRNA). Clindamycin decreases the production of Panton-Valentine leucocidin (PVL), toxic-shock-staphylococcal toxin (TSST-1) or alpha-haemolysin (Hla). Clindamycin also can be used for researching malaria.

IC50 & Target

MIC Tatget:Clindamycin[4] MIC: 200 μg/mL (E. coli)[4]

In Vitro

Clindamycin (25 μg/mL, 1-18 h) inhibits ceftazidime (HY-B0593)-induced endotoxin release pretreatment in E. coli O55:B5[3].
Clindamycin (50-100 μg/mL, 0-12 min) enhances antibody- and complement-dependent phagocytosis in Staphylococcus aureus[4].
Clindamycin (0-500 μg/mL, 24-72 h) inhibits the cell proliferation in osteoblast cell culture model, stimulates the cell metabolism of osteoblast at the contratibution of 10 μg/mL[5].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay[3]

Cell Line: THP-1 cells with stimulated E. coli O55:B5
Concentration: 3.13-50 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 1-18 h
Result: Reduced TNF-α concentrations after pretreatment for 4 or 18 h at 25 and 50 μg/mL.

Cell Viability Assay[5]

Cell Line: Osteoblast cell culture model
Concentration: 0-500 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 24-72 h
Result: Increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-activity at 10 μg/mL at 24 and 48 h.
Increased LDH values at 500 μg/mL at 24 and 48 h, indicating cytotoxicity.
Increased calcification at 10 and 25 μg/mL,decreased or no calcification was found at 50 μg/ml.
In Vivo

Clindamycin (50-300 mg/kg; i.v., p.o.) dosage doesn’t affect pharmacokinetic parameters in rats[6].
Clindamycin (160-600 mg/kg; i.v.) improves survival in a dose-dependent manner in endotoxic shock mouse model[7].
Clindamycin (17-50 mg/kg, i.v.) has good penetration into rat muscle tissue that can be applied to inhibit the main bacteria causing odontogenic infections[8].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
