Abstract
Relative to the cefotaxime-gentamicin combination, the moxifloxacin-cefotaxime combination significantly reduced microglial activation and immature oligodendrocyte cell death and delayed myelination in the developing white matter of neonatal rats with experimental Escherichia coli sepsis. These neuroprotective effects were not due to differences in in vivo bactericidal activities or in the systemic inflammatory responses and could be related to the intrinsic immunomodulatory properties of moxifloxacin. Molecular mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective effect of moxifloxacin remain to be elucidated.Entities:
