MedChemExpress - Model Cefaclor - 53994-73-3

Cefaclor is a well-absorbed orally active cephalosporin antibiotic. Cefaclor can specifically bind to specific for penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). Cefaclor can be used for the research of depression and kinds of infections caused by bacteria, such as respiratory tract infections, bacterial bronchitis, pharyngitis and skin infections[1][2][3][4].

Description：Cefaclor is a well-absorbed orally active cephalosporin antibiotic. Cefaclor can specifically bind to specific for penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). Cefaclor can be used for the research of depression and kinds of infections caused by bacteria, such as respiratory tract infections, bacterial bronchitis, pharyngitis and skin infections.

In Vitro：Cefaclor (0-500 μg/mL, 12-24 h) shows obvious antibacterial activity against 556 Gram-positive and Gram-negative isolates. The MIC values of most strains are lower than 3.1 μg/mL, and the MIC value of Staph. aureus is 1 μg/mL in vitro[4]. Cefaclor (60/500 μM, 30 min) is mainly transported by hPepT2 and hPepT1 in the MDCK stably transduced cell line overexpressing hOAT1、hPepT1 and hPepT2[2]. Cefaclor (0.16 mg/mL, 30 min) can induce allergic reactions by directly activating basophils and mast cells[3].

In Vivo：Cefaclor (200 mg/kg/day, p.o. once a day for 5 days) can cause intestinal flora imbalance in mice, as well as anxiety and depression-like behaviors in mice. These symptoms can be alleviated by Fluoxetine (HY-B0102) or vagotomy[1].
