Docking and Biological Screening of Bezo[A]phenothiazinones as Novel Inhibitors of Bacterial Peptidogloycan Transpeptidase
Rising cases of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a public health concern. Many approved antibiotics target penicillin-binding proteins example peptidoglycan transpeptidase (PTPase). Due to wide pharmacological activity of phenothiazines, new styryl, aryl, alkynyl, and thiophenyl benzo[a]phenothiazines were synthesized and their inhibitory potency against PTPasein silico and Gram-po...
متن کاملInteraction of phenothiazines, stilbenes and flavonoids with multidrug resistance-associated transporters, P-glycoprotein and MRP1.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) of cancer cells poses a serious obstacle to successful chemotherapy. The overexpression of multispecific ATP-binding cassette transporters appears to be the main mechanism of MDR. A search for MDR-reversing agents able to sensitize resistant cells to chemotherapy is ongoing in the hope of their possible clinical use. Studies of MDR modulators, although they have not p...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of nickel and nickel hydroxide nanoparticles against multidrug resistance K. pneumonia and E. coli isolated urinary tract
Objective(s): Antibacterial materials are so significant in the textile industry, water disinfection, medicine, and food packaging. Unfortunately, organic compounds for sterilization show toxicity to the human body; therefore, the interest in inorganic disinfectants such as metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) is increasing. Materials and Methods: Nickel and nickel hydroxide nanoparticles (NiNPs ...
متن کاملMultidrug Resistance in Infants and Children
Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria. The antibiotics may lose their antibacterial activity when they become resistant to a bacteria. The resistance to different antibiotics in a bacteria is ...
متن کاملDifferential interaction of Sophora isoflavonoids with lipid bilayers.
The mechanisms of some biological effects exerted by flavonoids (e.g. activity against lipid oxidation, multidrug resistance modulation) may involve their interactions with lipid bilayers. Due to variety of substituents attached to the flavonoid nucleus individual isoflavones significantly differ in their properties; in particular they may differently interact with membranes. For this reason we...
