Abstract

The effective accumulation of binuclear dinitrosyl iron complexes with glutathione was shown after subcutaneous perilymphatic injection of an aqueous solution of dinitrosyl iron complexes into animal lung tissue at a single dose of 2 µmol per kg twice a day with an interval of 2 h. At 2 hours after the repeated administration, the concentration of these complexes was 16 µmol per kg of the tissue, which decreased during the last 2 hours to 7 μmol per kg of the tissue. Upon a single injection of binuclear dinitrosyl iron complexes with glutathione, their concentration 2 and 4 hours later was two times lower than that in the previous experiments. Presumably, at the obtained concentrations of dinitrosyl iron complexes, a bactericidal effect in the lungs could be observed against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and rapidly proliferating lung tumors.
