Такие морфологические изменения кишечного слизистого слоя могут повлиять на разнообразие кишечной микрофлоры. Использование антибиотиков для лечения бактериальных инфекций у людей и животных с нарушением синтеза муцина-2 может быть малоэффективным, а иногда и опасным из-за развития сепсиса или хронического воспаления. В работе на мышах с генетически детерминированным дефицитом муцина-2 (линия Muc2–/–) исследовали как применение трех антибиотиков (кларитромицин, амоксицилин и метронидазол) влияет на элиминацию патогенной инфекции у мышей. Для оценки эффективности антибиотиков измеряли количество патогенных (Helicobacter spp.) и симбиотических (E. coli) бактерий в кишечнике животных. Негативное влияние антибактериальной терапии на организм хозяина оценивали по выживаемости животных. Три антибиотика не способствовали устранению Helicobacter spp. у мышей с дефицитом муцина-2. Наряду с неэффективным лечением была отмечена гибель у 60 % животных данной линии. Мыши с нормальной функцией синтеза муцина-2 (C57BL/6J) имели 100 %-е выживание. Животные с нормальной функцией синтеза основного кишечного протеогликана не демонстрировали снижения массы тела. Helicobacter spp. был полностью устранен у этих животных. Таким образом, лечение инфекции Helicobacter spp. антибиотиками у животных с нарушением синтеза муцина-2 не только малоэффективно, но и вызывает гибель животного. Высокая восприимчивость к токсическому действию антибиотиков дает основание для использования мышей с дефицитом муцина-2 в качестве тест-объекта для оценки фармакологической безопасности новых средств антибактериальной терапии.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Abnormal synthesis of the main intestinal proteo­glycan mucin-2 is typical of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease in humans. Those morphological changes of the mucus layer affect the diversity of the intestinal microflora. Antibiotics may be ineffective or even dangerous to humans or animals deficient for mucin-2 because of the risk of sepsis and chronic inflammation. In this study, we investigated the potential of antibiotics (clarithromycin, amoxicillin, and metronidazole) in elimination of patho­genic infection from Muc2 knockout mice (Muc2–/–). We assayed the population sizes of pathogens (Heli­co­bacter spp.) and symbiotic (E. coli) bacteria in the intestines of animals as a criterion of antibiotic efficacy. The damaging effect of antibacterial treatment on the host body was estimated from their survival rate. Three antibiotics were ineffective in the elimination of Helicobacter spp. from mucin-2-deficient mice. Moreover, the mortality of Muc2 knockout mice during the antibacterial treatment was 60 %. The survival of wild-type mice (C57BL/6J) during the treatment was 100 %. The weight of wild-type mice showed no decrease during the treatment. The Helico­bacter spp. pathogen was fully eradicated from wild-type mice. Thus, therapy of Helicobacter spp. infection in mucin-2 deficient animals is not only poorly efficient but even deadly. The high susceptibility to antibiotics allows Muc2 knockout mice to be used as a test model to evaluate the pharmacological safety of new antibiotics.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>мыши</kwd><kwd>кишечное воспаление</kwd><kwd>муцин-2</kwd><kwd>антибактериальная терапия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>mice</kwd><kwd>intestinal inflammation</kwd><kwd>mucin-2</kwd><kwd>antibacterial treatment</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group xml:lang="ru"><funding-statement>РФФИ</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Ayres J.S., Trinidad N.J., Vance R.E.
