A Molecular Modeling Approach to Identify Novel Inhibitors of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of Efflux Pump Transporters

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2019
Multidrug efflux systems play a prominent role in medicine, as they are important contributors to bacterial antibiotic resistance. NorA is an efflux pump transporter from the major facilitator superfamily that expels numerous drug compounds across the ...

Efflux Pump Mediated Antimicrobial Resistance by Staphylococci in Health-Related Environments: Challenges and the Quest for Inhibition

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
The increasing emergence of antimicrobial resistance in staphylococcal bacteria is a major health threat worldwide due to significant morbidity and mortality resulting from their associated hospital- or community-acquired infections. Dramatic decrease in

Novel 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline derivatives: design, synthesis, in vitro P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance reversal profile and molecular dynamics simulation study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Overexpression of the efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is one of the important mechanisms of multidrug resistance (MDR) in many tumor cells. In this study, 26 novel 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline derivatives containing different nitrophenyl moieties at C-4 ...

Predictive Rules of Efflux Inhibition and Avoidance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Efflux pump avoidance and inhibition are desired properties for the optimization of antibacterial activities against Gram-negative bacteria. However, molecular and physicochemical interactions defining the interface between compounds and efflux pumps ...

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid exerts anticholestatic effects by a cooperative cPKC alpha-/PKA-dependent mechanism in rat liver. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Objective: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) exerts anticholestatic effects in part by protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent mechanisms. Its taurine conjugate, TUDCA, is a cPKCa agonist.

Antimicrobial, Anticancer and Multidrug-Resistant Reversing Activity of Novel Oxygen-, Sulfur- and Selenoflavones and Bioisosteric Analogues

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2020
Multidrug resistance of cancer cells to cytotoxic drugs still remains a major obstacle to the success of chemotherapy in cancer treatment. The development of new drug candidates which may serve as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux pump inhibitors is a ...

Interplay between three RND efflux pumps in doxycycline-selected strains of Burkholderia thailandensis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Efflux systems are involved in multidrug resistance in most Gram-negative non-fermentative bacteria. We have chosen Burkholderia thailandensis to dissect the development of multidrug resistance phenotypes under antibiotic pressure ...

Efflux Pumps and These Inhibitors

open access: yesVNU Journal of Science: Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019
 In this era of multi-drug resistance, efflux pump is one of the major problems which is increasingly concerned by scientists. The structure and mechanism activity of the efflux pumps on both bacteria and eurakyotes that are gradually being clarified. Since then, efflux pump inhibitors have also been studied and initially applied in clinic, that makes ...

A mass spectrometry-based assay for improved quantitative measurements of efflux pump inhibition.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Bacterial efflux pumps are active transport proteins responsible for resistance to selected biocides and antibiotics. It has been shown that production of efflux pumps is up-regulated in a number of highly pathogenic bacteria, including methicillin ...
