[Study of embryotoxic and teratogenic effects of amphotericin B and a methyl derivative of amphotericin B in rats after their intravenous and intra-amniotic administration].
The embryotoxic action of amphotericin B and its methyl derivative was compared in rats after their intravenous and intraamniotic administration. The concentrations of amphotericin B and its methyl derivative in the amniotic cavity on days 13, 14 and 15 of pregnancy were 1.5 and 36 micrograms/ml, respectively. When administered intravenously during the preimplantation period the antibiotics had no embryotoxic action. Intravenous administration of amphotericin B in a dose of 500 micrograms/kg and its derivative in a dose of 2000 micrograms/kg during organ genesis induced a decrease in the craniocaudal size. In a dose of 3000 micrograms/kg administered intravenously the methyl derivative of amphotericin B induced an increase in postimplantation death rates. Administration of amphotericin B to the amniotic cavity had no damaging action. Administration of the methyl derivative on day 15 of pregnancy led to anomalous development of the lower extremities and slower ossification. The threshold doses by the embryotoxic action for intravenous administration are 500 micrograms/kg for amphotericin B and 2000 micrograms/kg for the methyl derivative. Administration of the antibiotics to the amniotic cavity revealed potential teratogenic properties of the amphotericin B methyl derivative.
