متن کاملLauryl-poly-L-lysine: A New Antimicrobial Agent?
The development of multiple antibiotic resistance is a global problem. It is necessary to find new tools whose mechanisms of action differ from those of currently used antibiotics. It is known that fatty acids and cationic polypeptides are able to fight bacteria. Here, we describe the synthesis of fatty acids linked to a polypeptide with antibacterial activity. The linkage of fatty acids to a p...
متن کاملImpact of self-assembly properties on antibacterial activity of short acyl-lysine oligomers.
We investigated both the structural and functional consequences of modifying the hydrophobic, lipopeptide-mimetic oligo-acyl-lysine (OAK) N(alpha)-hexadecanoyl-l-lysyl-l-lysyl-aminododecanoyl-l-lysyl-amide (c(16)KKc(12)K) to its unsaturated analog hexadecenoyl-KKc(12)K [c(16(omega7))KKc(12)K]. Despite similar tendencies for self-assembly in solution (critical aggregation concentrations, approxi...
متن کاملThe antiplasmodial activity of norcantharidin analogs.
The antiplasmodial activities of sixty norcantharidin analogs were tested in vitro against a chloroquine sensitive (D6, Sierra Leone) and chloroquine resistant (W2) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Forty analogs returned IC(50) values <500 μM against at least one of the P. falciparum strains examined. The ring open compound 24 ((1S,4R)-3-(allylcarbamoyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic...
متن کاملAntiplasmodial activity of [(aryl)arylsulfanylmethyl]Pyridine.
A series of [(aryl)arylsufanylmethyl]pyridines (AASMP) have been synthesized. These compounds inhibited hemozoin formation, formed complexes (K(D) = 12 to 20 muM) with free heme (ferriprotoporphyrin IX) at a pH close to the pH of the parasite food vacuole, and exhibited antimalarial activity in vitro. The inhibition of hemozoin formation may develop oxidative stress in Plasmodium falciparum due...
