Abstract

Background. Globally, the number of cases of tuberculosis with pathogen resistance, sometimes to all available anti-tuberculosis drugs (anti-TB drugs), is increasing. This fact prompts the development of new anti-TB drugs that are effective against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Objective. Evaluation of the toxic effect on the fetus and embryo of a new anti-tuberculosis drug of the diarylquinoline group with the working name thiosonide in an experiment on rats. Methods. To study the effect of thiosonide on embryonic development, experiments were carried out in 30 pregnant white outbred rats with an initial weight of 220-250 g. Antenatal effect of thiosonide on postnatal development was studied in experiments on 20 outbred white rats, 10 animals per group. Impact assessment criteria: weight dynamics and physical development of infant rats, development of physical activity (horizontal rope test); formation of sensory-motor reflexes (righting reflex and cliff avoidance reflex), behavior in an open field (registration of horizontal and vertical motor activity, exploratory and emotional reactions, grooming). Results. The absence of embryotoxic and fetotoxic effects of thiosonide administered to pregnant rats orally at doses of 10 and 100 mg/ kg was shown. The rates of embryonic death, body weight and fetal size were close to the control group values. In experiments studying the effect of thiosonide intake by pregnant rats on the postnatal development of rats no developmental deviations were revealed. The physical development of infant rats in the experimental group did not differ from that in the control group. It was found that the righting reflex, cliff avoidance reflex and behavior in the open field on the 5th day of life were formed in all infant rats in both experimental and control groups and corresponded to the physiological ranges. Conclusion. Thiosonide has no embryotoxic and fetotoxic effects, which makes it possible to consider it as a promising drug for the treatment of tuberculosis.
