RESUMO
PURPOSE: The principal objective of this project was to review and thoroughly examine the chemical characteristics, pharmacological activity, and quantification methods associated with contezolid. METHODS: The article was based on published and ongoing preclinical and clinical studies on the application of contezolid. These studies included experiments on the physicochemical properties of contezolid, in vitro antimicrobial research, in vivo antimicrobial research, and clinical trials in various phases. There were no date restrictions on these studies. RESULTS: In June 2021, contezolid was approved for treating complicated skin and soft tissue infections. The structural modification of contezolid has resulted in better efficacy compared to linezolid. It inhibits bacterial growth by preventing the production of the functional 70S initiation complex required to translate bacterial proteins. The current evidence has indicated a substantial decline in myelosuppression and monoamine oxidase inhibition without impairing its antibacterial properties. Contezolid was found to have a more significant safety profile and to be metabolised by flavin monooxygenase 5, reducing the risk of harmful effects due to drug-drug interactions. Adjusting doses is unnecessary for patients with mild to moderate renal or hepatic insufficiency. CONCLUSION: As an oral oxazolidinone antimicrobial agent, contezolid is effective against multi-drug resistant Gram-positive bacteria. The introduction of contezolid provided a new clinical option.

Osteoprotegerin (OPG) plays an important role in the regulation of bone resorption and remodeling. The TNFR domain of OPG, which is involved in the inhibition of formation and activity of osteoclasts, was amplified by PCR and inserted into multiple cloning site of PET-28a. The recombinant plasmid was transferred into E.coli BL21 to express recombinant protein. It was found that expressed product existed in the form of inclusion body. The inclusion body was solubilized, renatured and purified by affinity chromatography. Polyclonal antibodies with high specificity were obtained from the serum of rabbit immunized with purified recombinant protein. Mice were used to determine the hypocalcemic effect of the recombinant protein. Results showed that the recombinant protein expressed in E.coli had the proper bioactivity.
