Permeation through the Cell Membrane of a Boron-Based β-Lactamase Inhibitor
Bacteria express beta-lactamases to counteract the beneficial action of antibiotics. Benzo[b]-thiophene-2-boronic acid (BZB) derivatives are β-lactamase inhibitors and, as such, promising compounds to be associated with β-lactam antibacterial therapies. The uncharged form of BZB, in particular, is suggested to diffuse through the outer membrane of gram negative bacteria. In this study, through ...
متن کاملGas Permeation Modeling through a Multilayer Hollow Fiber Composite Membrane
In this study, a time-dependent 2D axisymmetric model of a multilayer hollow fiber composite membrane for gas separation is proposed. In spite of the common multilayer membranes, which a dense layer coated on a porous support layer and subjected into the feed stream, here, the porous support is exposed to the feed gas. In this regard, the governing equations of species transport are developed f...
متن کاملWater permeation through a subnanometer boron nitride nanotube.
Water-filled nanometer-scale porous structures have gained considerable attention over the past decade due to their enormous promise in substantially improving the performance and efficiency of many applications such as biological/chemical systems,1-3 water purification systems,4 fuel cell devices,5 etc. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), due to their extraordinary physical and chemical p...
متن کاملThe β-lactamase inhibitor avibactam (NXL104) does not induce ampC β-lactamase in Enterobacter cloacae
Induction of ampC β-lactamase expression can often compromise antibiotic treatment and is triggered by several β-lactams (such as cefoxitin and imipenem) and by the β-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid. The novel β-lactamase inhibitor avibactam (NXL104) is a potent inhibitor of both class A and class C enzymes. The potential of avibactam for induction of ampC expression in Enterobacter cloacae...
متن کاملEuropium as an inhibitor of Amyloid-β(1-42) induced membrane permeation
Soluble Amyloid-beta (Aβ) oligomers are a source of cytotoxicity in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The toxicity of Aβ oligomers may arise from their ability to interact with and disrupt cellular membranes mediated by GM1 ganglioside receptors within these membranes. Therefore, inhibition of Aβ-membrane interactions could provide a means of preventing the toxicity associated with Aβ. Here, using Surf...
