Copper-boosting compounds: a novel concept for antimycobacterial drug discovery.
We and others recently identified copper resistance as important for virulence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Here, we introduce a high-throughput screening assay for agents that induce a copper hypersensitivity phenotype in M. tuberculosis and demonstrate that such copper-boosting compounds are effective against replicating and nonreplicating M. tuberculosis strains.
متن کاملSFE OF PHARMACOLOGICAL COMPOUNDS FROM Tabernaemontana catharinensis: ANALYSIS OF THE ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIMYCOBACTERIAL ACTIVITIES
In the present work the pharmacological activities of SFE extracts from T. catharinensis were evaluated. The SFE extracts were obtained using supercritical CO2 plus ethanol as cosolvent (4.6 and 9.2% m/m) at pressures of 250 and 300 bar and temperatures of 35, 45, and 55oC. The crude extracts were solvent-fractionated (hexanic fraction, alkaloid, and aqueous fractions) and analyzed by Thin-laye...
متن کاملAntiprotozoal and Antimycobacterial Activities of Pure Compounds from Aristolochia elegans Rhizomes
We analyzed the antimycobacterial activity of the hexane extract of rhizomes from Aristolochia elegans. Some compounds of this extract were purified and tested against a group of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. We also evaluated their antiprotozoal activities. The hexane extract was active against M. tuberculosis H37Rv at a MIC = 100 μg mL(-1); the pure compounds eupomatenoid...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of antimycobacterial compounds from the leaf of Aloe vera (L.) Burm. f
Article history: Received on: 12/07/2016 Accepted on: 13/12/2016 Available online: 27/02/2017 The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antimycobaterial activity of Aloe vera leaf, extracted in different solvents in increasing order of polarity and tested against Mycobacterium smegmatis (MTCC 994). Antimycobacterial activity was determined by agar well-diffusion method. Hot methanol extr...
متن کاملAntimycobacterial Activity of Isolated Compounds from Lippia Javanica and Hoslundia Opposita
Eight compounds isolated from Lippia javanica and three compounds, from Hoslundia opposita were tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis at concentrations of 200, 100, 50 and 25μg/ml. Compound “6-Methoxyluteolin 4'-methyl ether” isolated from L. javanica exhibited a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 200 μg/ml against M. tuberculosis. Of all the compounds tested against a drug-sensitive...
