Biochem/physiol Actions: |
Taurolidine is a broad spectrum antibiotic with antineoplastic activity, which induces apoptosis and decreases tumor cell proliferation. Taurolidine has been used with TNF-related-apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) to characterize synergistic responses in many apoptosis related signaling-proteins. Tauroline is also being used as a tool to study the various mechanisms of apoptosis and necrosis. |
Biochem/physiol Actions: |
Taurolidine is an antibacterial agent that can be used for the treatment of peritonis. It has also been used as an antiendoxic substance for systematic inflammatory response syndrome and as an anti-angiogenic agent for tumors. Furthermore, studies have reported that taurolidine can be used for the prevention of multiple catheter-related bloodstream infections. |
