Biological Activity of Furagin

DescriptionFuragin, nitrofurantoin analog, is an anti-bacterial agent. Furagin is 2-substituted 5-nitrofuran, chemically and structurally similar to well-known antibacterial compound nitrofurantoin. IC50 Value: Target: Antibacterial in vitro: The furagin concentrations in serum remain several hours above the MIC concentrations of many pathogenic bacteria. Despite the high concentrations in serum, the urine levels of furagin were generally lower than those of nitrofurantoin. The 24 hr recoveries in urine were 8--13% for furagin and about 36% for nitrofurantoin [1]. in vivo: A time-independent increase in SCE frequency was found in lymphocytes of children treated with furagin. Total CA frequency did not differ significantly between groups of children with various duration of furagin treatment [2]. Women were randomised into two groups receiving either ciprofloxacin 250mg twice a day for 3 days (n=13) or furagin 100mg three times a day for 7 days (n=14). Median lengths of follow-up were 4 days and 5 days in the ciprofloxacin and furagin groups, respectively [3].

Background on Furagin

Furagin is an anti-bacterial, nitrofurantoin analog with the same efficacy in treating acute cystitis as Ciprofloxacin; however, the duration of therapy is longer.

Ciprofloxacin and furagin in acute cystitis: comparison of early immune and microbiological results.[Pubmed:18060746]

Int J Antimicrob Agents. 2008 Feb;31(2):130-4.

Furagin (a nitrofurantoin analogue) has the same efficacy in treating acute cystitis as ciprofloxacin, however the duration of therapy is longer. We established a hypothesis that therapy with ciprofloxacin results in faster resolution of mucosal inflammation in comparison with Furagin. Rates of urinary secretion of immunoglobulins class A, M and G and interleukin-8 (IL-8) were evaluated before and after initiation of therapy in adult women presenting with acute cystitis confirmed by urine culture. Women were randomised into two groups receiving either ciprofloxacin 250mg twice a day for 3 days (n=13) or Furagin 100mg three times a day for 7 days (n=14). Median lengths of follow-up were 4 days and 5 days in the ciprofloxacin and Furagin groups, respectively. Treatment with ciprofloxacin resulted in faster eradication of pathogens. No bacteria or nitrates were detected in the ciprofloxacin group, whilst leukocyte esterase was positive in only one case. In the Furagin group there were four positive cultures, seven cases with positive nitrates and five cases with positive esterase. Secretion rates of all four substances dropped significantly, but the changes over time were similar in both groups.

[Pulmonary reaction after furazidin (Furagin). Case report].[Pubmed:9411425]

Pol Arch Med Wewn. 1997 May;97(5):465-72.

For the first time in Poland we present the case of pulmonary reaction to furazidin which is by chemical structure closely related to nitrofurantoin. 63 years old woman presented generalized symptoms of acute hypersensitivity reaction induced by furazidin as well as features of chronic pulmonary fibrosis. After few months of treatment with this drug patients complained of weight loss, dyspnea on effort, non-productive cough, chills and fever. Radiological and functional evaluation of respiratory system confirmed features of lung fibrosis. Drug provocation test was positive. In vitro furazidin in low concentrations stimulated proliferation of patient's lymphocytes. After cessation of treatment we have observed rapid improvement of clinical, radiological, biochemical and functional parameters.

[Photosensitizing properties and antioxidant activity of furagin--an antimicrobial drug that is a derivative of nitrofuran].[Pubmed:9172693]

Biofizika. 1997 Mar-Apr;42(2):472-9.

Photosensitizing effect of antimicrobial drug nitrofuran derivative--Furagin N-(5-nitro-2-furil)-allylidencamino-hydantoin) under irradiation with light longer than 280 nm was found. The method of investigation is based on photochemiluminescence of Gly-Trp peptide in aqueous solution. Maximum photosensitizing efficiency was observed at the Furagin concentration 0.08 mM when chemiluminescence yield was 33 times greater than photochemiluminescence of Gly-Trp peptide in absence of drug. It was shown that photochemiluminescence sensitized by Furagin occurred via free radical way. Life time of the triplet state of Furagin determined by flash photolysis was 40 microseconds. A comparison of experimental data with kinetic calculation allowed us to estimate the rate constant of triplet quenching by oxygen ((2.2 +/- 0.3)10(8) M-1.s-1) and the total rate constants of physical quenching and chemical reaction with Gly-Trp peptide ((2.0 +/- 0.4)10(8) M-1.s-1). It was also found in experiments with photochemiluminescence of Gly-Trp peptide sensitized by riboflavin (irradiation with monochromatic light 436 nm) that Furagin possesses antioxidant properties twice reducing the intensity of chemiluminescence at the drug concentration 0.029 mM.
