Bioactivity

In Vivo
Rifaximin exhibits broad-spectrum activity against aerobic and anaerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms.Rifaximin exhibits a low MIC against Gram-positive bacteria, with a dose range of 0.01 μg/mL to 0.5 μg/mL for MIC 90.Rifaximin binds to the β-subunit of the bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase and inhibits the start of the chain of RNA synthesis. Rifaximin inhibits LPS-induced cytokine and chemokine expression by inhibiting NF-κB DNA binding activity.50 μM Rifaximin reduces changes in pro-inflammatory factor production induced by LPS stimulation in the IEC, such as TNF-α, IL-8, Rantes, and PGE2 in normal intestinal epithelial cells.100 μM Rifaximin is also shown to inhibit LPS-induced cytokine expression by inhibiting NF-κB DNA binding activity. μM Rifaximin effectively reduced the expression of TNFα, IL-8, MIP-3α and RANTES by lipopolysaccharide-induced stimulation.
