Synergistic effects of antimicrobial peptide DP7 combined with antibiotics against multidrug-resistant bacteria
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria present a great threat to public health. In this study, the synergistic effects of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and antibiotics on several multidrug-resistant bacterial strains were studied, and their synergistic effects on azithromycin (AZT)-resistance genes were analyzed to determine the relationships between antimicrobial resistance and these synergistic effect...
متن کاملCalli Essential Oils Synergize with Lawsone against Multidrug Resistant Pathogens.
The fast development of multi-drug resistant (MDR) organisms increasingly threatens global health and well-being. Plant natural products have been known for centuries as alternative medicines that can possess pharmacological characteristics, including antimicrobial activities. The antimicrobial activities of essential oil (Calli oil) extracted from the Calligonum comosum plant by hydro-steam di...
متن کاملA potent synthetic inorganic antibiotic with activity against drug-resistant pathogens
The acronymously named "ESKAPE" pathogens represent a group of bacteria that continue to pose a serious threat to human health, not only due to their propensity for repeated emergence, but also due to their ability to "eskape" antibiotic treatment. The evolution of multi-drug resistance in these pathogens alone has greatly outpaced the development of new therapeutics, necessitating an alternati...
متن کاملAntibiofilm potential of Lactobacillus plantarum spp. cell free supernatant (CFS) against multidrug resistant bacterial pathogens
Biofilm formation is a major determinant factor in development of bacterial infections. In addition, bacteria embedded in a biofilm are more resistant to antimicrobials and thus the ability of bacteria to persist and grow in a biofilm seems to be the major factor for pathogenesis and therapeutic failure. In the current study, a Lactobacillus plantarum spp was isolated from Siahmazgi cheese, tra...
متن کاملACHN-490, a neoglycoside with potent in vitro activity against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates.
The in vitro activity of ACHN-490, a novel aminoglycoside ("neoglycoside"), was evaluated against 102 multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, including a subset of 25 strains producing the KPC carbapenemase. MIC50 values for gentamicin, tobramycin, and amikacin were 8 microg/ml, 32 microg/ml, and 2 microg/ml, respectively; MIC90 values for the same antimicrobials were > or = 64...
