Chlorpromazine and Amitriptyline Are Substrates and Inhibitors of the AcrB Multidrug Efflux Pump
Efflux is an important mechanism in Gram-negative bacteria conferring multidrug resistance. Inhibition of efflux is an encouraging strategy to restore the antibacterial activity of antibiotics.

Selenocompounds as Novel Antibacterial Agents and Bacterial Efflux Pump Inhibitors. [PDF]
Bacterial multidrug resistance is becoming a growing problem for public health, due to the development and spreading of bacterial strains resistant to antimicrobials. In this study, the antibacterial and multidrug resistance reversing activity of a series of seleno-carbonyl compounds has been evaluated.

Flavonoids as Inhibitors of Bacterial Efflux Pumps [PDF]
Flavonoids are widely occurring secondary plant constituents, and are abundant in vegetable and fruit diets as well as herbal medicines. Therapeutic treatment options for bacterial infections are limited due to the spread of antimicrobial resistances.

Bacterial efflux pump inhibitors from natural sources [PDF]
The rapid spread of bacteria expressing multidrug resistance (MDR) has necessitated the discovery of new antibacterials and resistance-modifying agents. Since the initial discovery of bacterial efflux pumps in the 1980s, many have been characterized in community- and hospital-acquired Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, such as Staphylococcus ...

Detection of tetracyclines and efflux pump inhibitors [PDF]
Screening assays for the detection of tetracyclines and inhibitors of tetracycline efflux pumps are described. The tetracycline assay is based on the observation that the tetA(B) gene encoding the efflux pump of transposon Tn10 is induced by tetracycline.

Function and Inhibitory Mechanisms of Multidrug Efflux Pumps
Multidrug efflux pumps are inner membrane transporters that export multiple antibiotics from the inside to the outside of bacterial cells, contributing to bacterial multidrug resistance (MDR). Postgenomic analysis has demonstrated that numerous multidrug

Effect of efflux pump inhibition on Pseudomonas aeruginosa transcriptome and virulence [PDF]
Efflux pumps of the resistance-nodulation-cell-division (RND) family increase antibiotic resistance in many bacterial pathogens, representing candidate targets for the development of antibiotic adjuvants.
