Antibacterial properties of the CFTR potentiator ivacaftor [PDF]

Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, 2014
Ivacaftor increases CFTR channel activity and improves pulmonary function for individuals bearing a G551D mutation. Because ivacaftor structurally resembles quinolone antibiotics, we tested the hypothesis that ivacaftor possesses antibacterial properties.Bioluminescence, colony forming unit, and minimal inhibitory concentration assays were used to ...
