Application

Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic produced by Actinoplanes teichomiceticus that is effective against Gram-positive bacteria resistant to β-lactam antibiotics. Teicoplanin and vancomycin have been used clinically for the treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. Product T0578 is a mixture of six primary teicoplanins; primarily teicoplanins A2 group.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic. It is a mixture of several compounds, five major (named teicoplanin A2-1 through A2-5) and four minor (named teicoplanin RS-1 through RS-4). All teicoplanins share a same glycopeptide core, termed teicoplanin A3-1, a fused ring structure to which two carbohydrates (mannose and N-acetylglucosamine) are attached. The major and minor components also contain a third carbohydrate moiety, β-D-glucosamine, and differ only by the length and conformation of a side chain attached to it. It′s mechanism of action is through inhibition of bacterial cell wall biosynthesis.

The present study was designed to investigate whether teicoplanin minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates play a role in the prognosis of patient with teicoplanin-treated MRSA bloodstream infection (BSI). Between 1 January 2006 and 31 December

Glycopeptide antibiotic derivative teicoplanin ψ-aglycone has been bound covalently to a fullerenopyrrolidine derivative using azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. The aggregation of the antibiotic-fullerene conjugate in aqueous solution has been studied. The conjugate exhibited antibacterial activity against enterococci resistant to teicoplanin.
