Relationship between norfloxacin concentrations and cytokine and NOx levels, both in serum (n = 131) and AF (n = 59). TNF-alpha, tumor necrosis factor α; IFN-gamma, interferon-γ; IL-12, interleukin 12; NOx, nitric oxide metabolites; ND, not detected; r, Pearson correlation coefficient.

3. Figure 2
Norfloxacin and TNF-α concentrations in 6 patients with a total of 9 consecutive serum samples collected during follow-up. Sample 1 refers to the sample collected at inclusion. Subsequent samples were collected at 15 days and 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 9, and 10 months, respectively, after inclusion. TNF-alpha, tumor necrosis factor-α.

4. Figure 3
Temporal pattern of intracellular norfloxacin concentrations (A), serum cytokines (B), and NOx levels (C) according to serum norfloxacin concentrations (n = 8). Data are expressed as mean ± SD (bars). Each time point value was compared with its corresponding value at 0 hours and to the previous time point value. X-axis is lineal from 0 to 2 hours.

5. Figure 4
Temporal relationship between intracellular levels of norfloxacin and NF-κB and IkBα. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Cell samples were sequentially obtained from 8 norfloxacin-naïve patients before and after the administration of 400 mg of oral norfloxacin. For all variables, each time point value was compared with its corresponding value at 0 hours and at 0.5 hours. X-axis is lineal from 0 to 2 hours. AU, arbitrary units.

6. Figure 5
Temporal relationship between intracellular generation of anion superoxide, as determined by yellow nitroblue tetrazolium (Y-NBT) (A) and intracellular annexin V (B) with the intracellular levels of norfloxacin in resting cells and PMA-stimulated cells. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Blood cell samples were obtained from 8 norfloxacin-naïve patients before and after the administration of 400 mg of oral norfloxacin. For all variables, each time point value was compared with its corresponding value at 0 hours and at 0.5 hours. X-axis is lineal from 0 to 2 hours. PMA, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate; OD, optical density.

7. Figure 6
Temporal relationship between intracellular levels of norfloxacin or trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole and NF-κB. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Cell samples were sequentially obtained from 5 patients before and after drug administration (see Patients and Methods section). For all variables, each time point value was compared with its corresponding value at 0 hours and at 0.5 hours. X-axis is lineal from 0 to 2 hours. AU, arbitrary units.
