Imipenem is a semisynthetic thienamycin. Imipenem is one of the broad-spectrum antibiotics that has a bactericidal action against multiple gram-negative, gram-positive, aerobic, and anaerobic bacteria by binding to penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) and interacting with bacterial cell wall synthesis[2-5]. Imipenem exerts a bactericidal effects by disrupting cell wall synthesis.
In vitro, the MICs of imipenem against the Y. pestis strains ranged from 0.12 to 1.0mg/L[6].
In vivo, Imipenem (4g/70kg/day; i.p.; 7 days) decreased peritoneal cell counts and phagocytic activity, but increased IL-1 production and NK cell activity in BALB/c mice[3]. Imipenem (125mg/kg; s.c.; every 24h for 72h) significantly reduced bacterial load, but increased liver enzymes, endotoxin levels, and inflammatory cytokine production in the plasma and liver of septic mice[1]. Imipenem (25mg/kg; s.c.; every 24h for 72h) significantly reduced liver enzymes, bacterial load, endotoxin levels, and inflammatory cytokine levels in septic mice[1].

Protocol
| MIC experiment [1]: | |
|
Preparation Method |
Susceptibilities of Y. pestis strains were determined by the broth microdilution method according to CLSI M45-A2 |
|
Reaction Conditions |
0.04-2mg/L; 35°C |
|
Applications |
The MICs for the Y. pestis strains with Imipenem ranged from a low of 0.12mg/liter to a high of 1.0mg/liter. |
| Cell experiment[2]: | |
|
Cell experiment |
THP-1 cells |
|
Preparation Method |
THP-1 cells were seeded into 24-well plates, differentiated for 24h and infected with M. abscessus CIP104536. Imipenem (8 and 32mg/L) or amoxicillin alone or in combination with relebactam (16mg/L) or avibactam (16mg/L) were added to each well. Rifabutin was also studied in combination with imipenem (8mg/L), Imipenem/relebactam or Imipenem/avibactam. Imipenem was added every 24h. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
8 and 32mg/L; 24h |
|
Applications |
Combination of relebactam with β-lactams led to >128- and 2-fold decreases in the MICs of amoxicillin and Imipenem (from 8 to 4mg/L). M. abscessus was not killed by the Imipenem/relebactam combination. In contrast, relebactam increased the intracellular activity of Imipenem, leading to 88% killing. |
| Animal experiment [3]: | |
|
Animal models |
Female C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old, 20-25g body weight) |
|
Preparation Method |
Mice were randomly divided into four groups: the sham-operated mice as the control group, CLP-induced sepsis mice, CLP-induced sepsis mice treated with the low dose of Imipenem (25mg/kg), CLP-induced sepsis mice treated with the high dose of Imipenem (125mg/kg). Imipenem was injected one hour after sepsis induction, repeating the injection every 24h up to 72h. |
|
Dosage form |
25 or 125mg/kg; s.c; repeating the injection every 24h up to 72h |
|
Applications |
Sepsis mice treated with a high dose (125mg/kg) of Imipenem showed a significant reduction in bacterial load, while increased liver enzymes, endotoxin level, and inflammatory cytokine production in plasma and liver. Significant reduction in the liver enzymes, bacterial load, endotoxin levels, and inflammatory cytokine levels was observed in the mice treated with a low dose (25mg/kg) of Imipenem. Liver tissue pathology of mice indicated little tissue destruction in the sepsis mice treated with 25mg/kg of Imipenem compared to other groups. Mice receiving 25mg/kg of Imipenem had better survival rate. |
