Abstract
“Typical features of pneumococcal meningitis have been demonstrated in rats inoculated with Streptococcus pneumoniae. HU-211, a novel noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist recently demonstrated to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-alpha production under various conditions, improves recovery in some experimental models of brain injury. The present study tested the efficacy of HU-211 in combination with antimicrobial therapy in reducing brain damage in experimental pneumococcal meningitis. S. pneumoniae-infected rats were treated with saline alone, ceftriaxone alone, or with combination of ceftriaxone and HU-211 18 h after inoculation of the bacteria. Brain edema and blood-brain barrier impairment 48 h after infection were significantly (P<.05) reduced suggest that HU-211 when given concomitantly with antibiotics attenuates brain damage in the rat model of pneumococcal meningitis.”
