چکیده
Peptide deformylase inhibitor LBM-415 and seven other drugs were tested against Mycoplasma pneumoniae (100 isolates), Mycoplasma hominis (20 isolates), Mycoplasma fermentans (10 isolates), and Ureaplasma species (50 isolates). LBM-415 was active against M. pneumoniae (MICs, <or=0.008 microg/ml). It showed no activity against M. hominis and M. fermentans and modest activity against Ureaplasma spp.

Comparative in vitro activities of the investigational fluoroquinolone DC-159a and other antimicrobial agents against human mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas.
The in vitro susceptibilities of 151 unique clinical isolates of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycoplasma hominis, Mycoplasma fermentans, Mycoplasma genitalium, and Ureaplasma species to DC-159a, an investigational fluoroquinolone, in comparison with those to other agents were determined. Macrolides were the most active agents against M. pneumoniae and M. genitalium, whereas clindamycin was most activ...
متن کاملComparative in vitro susceptibilities and bactericidal activities of investigational fluoroquinolone ABT-492 and other antimicrobial agents against human mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas.
We determined in vitro susceptibilities for ABT-492 and other antimicrobials against Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycoplasma fermentans, Mycoplasma hominis, and Ureaplasma species. ABT-492 MICs were < or =1 microg/ml, and the agent was bactericidal against selected isolates of M. pneumoniae and M. hominis. ABT-492 has potential for treatment of infections due to these microorganisms.
متن کاملComparative spectrum and activity of NVP-PDF386 (VRC4887), a new peptide deformylase inhibitor.
The antibacterial activity of NVP-PDF386 (VRC4887), a novel peptide deformylase (PDF) inhibitor, was tested against over 1000 recent clinical isolates collected during 2001 and 2002. The MIC(50/90) (mg/L) results for NVP-PDF386 (VRC4887) were: Staphylococcus aureus (SA) 0.5/1, coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) 0.5/1, Streptococcus pneumoniae 0.25/0.5, other streptococci 0.25/0.5, enteroco...
متن کاملDrug forecast – the peptide deformylase inhibitors as antibacterial agents
The relatively rapid development of microbial resistance after the entry of every new antimicrobial into the marketplace necessitates a constant supply of new agents to maintain effective pharmacotherapy. Despite extensive efforts to identify novel lead compounds from molecular targets, only the peptide deformylase inhibitors (PDIs) have shown any real promise, with some advancing to phase I hu...
متن کاملProteomic study of peptide deformylase inhibition in Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus.
Peptide deformylase (PDF) is an essential enzyme in both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. It hydrolyzes formylated N-terminal peptides to generate free N-terminal peptides during the process of protein maturation. Inhibition of this enzyme results in cessation of bacterial growth. We have examined the effect of a potent PDF inhibitor, LBM-415 (also known as VIC-104959), on the proteome...
