Recent Advances in Multi-Drug Resistance (MDR) Efflux Pump Inhibitors of Gram-Positive Bacteria S. aureus.
The paper focuses on recent achievements in the search for new chemical compounds able to inhibit multidrug resistance (MDR) mechanisms in Gram-positive pathogens. An analysis of the results of the search for new efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) for Gram-positive bacteria, which have been performed over the last decade, indicates that almost all efforts are focused on the NorA (MFS) efflux pump in...
متن کاملInterspecies Scaling of the Bioaccumulation of Lipophilic Xenobiotics in Fish: an Example Using Trifluralin
A poorly understood factor that may influence differences in the accumulation of a xenobiotic among fishes is interspecies differences in physiology. We have extensively studied the uptake, distribution, and excretion kinetics of the lipophilic herbicide trifluralin (TF) in fish, using a static water exposure system and compartmental toxicokinetic models. We obtained quantitative estimates of p...
متن کاملExistence of a p-glycoprotein drug efflux pump in cultured rabbit conjunctival epithelial cells.
PURPOSE To determine whether a p-glycoprotein (P-gp) drug efflux pump exists in cultured rabbit conjunctival epithelial cells (RCEs) to restrict the absorption of cyclosporin A (CSA) and other lipophilic drugs such as verapamil and dexamethasone. METHODS The anti-P-gp monoclonal antibody (mAb) C219 was used in western blot analysis to reveal the presence of P-gp in freshly isolated and cultur...
متن کاملSpread of Efflux Pump Overexpressing-Mediated Fluoroquinolone Resistance and Multidrug Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by using an Efflux Pump Inhibitor
BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolone resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa may be due to efflux pump overexpression and/or target mutations. We designed this study to investigate the efflux pump mediated fluoroquinolone resistance and check the increasing effectiveness of fluoroquinolones in combination with an efflux pumps inhibitor among P. aeruginosa isolates from burn wounds infections. MATERIALS AN...
متن کاملRLIP76, a novel transporter catalyzing ATP-dependent efflux of xenobiotics.
Transport of xenobiotics and their metabolites by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters particularly P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and the multidrug resistance associated protein (MRP1) has been extensively studied during last decade. Our recent studies demonstrate that RLIP76, a previously known GTPase-activating protein catalyzes ATP-dependent, uphill transport of anionic glutathione conjugates as w...
