| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Because it is excreted more slowly than tetracycline, it maintains effective blood levels for longer periods of time. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Demeclocycline hydrochloride is a tetracycline antibiotic derived from a strain of Streptomyces aureofaciens. DMC protects neurons from glutamate induced toxicity by suppressing calpain I and II activities. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Used to study mechanisms of bacterial protein synthesis inhibition at the level of the 30S subunit and aminoacy-tRNA A-site binding. |
