Type III Secretion-Dependent Sensitivity of Escherichia coli O157 to Specific Ketolides [PDF]
A subset of Gram negative bacterial pathogens use a type 3 secretion system (T3SS) to open up a conduit into eukaryotic cells in order to inject effector proteins. These modulate pathways to enhance bacterial colonization.

Abstract Background Hypersensitivity reactions (HSR) are reported for the macrolides, lincosamides, and streptogramins (MLS) antibiotic family. Data about cross‐reactivity among and between MLS remain scarce or controversial. Objectives The aim of this study was to provide an overview of hypersensitivity cross‐reactions among MLSs based on data ...

Abstract ECDC, EFSA and EMA have jointly established a list of harmonised outcome indicators to assist EU Member States in assessing their progress in reducing the use of antimicrobials and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in both humans and food‐producing animals. The proposed indicators have been selected on the basis of data collected by Member States

Synthesis of Novel 6,11-O-Bridged Bicyclic Ketolides via a Palladium-Catalyzed Bis-allylation
A bridging chemistry process was developed to form an ether bridge between 6-O and 11-O of erythromycin A via a tandem or stepwise palladium-catalyzed bis-π-allylation.

The antibiotic resistance crisis and the development of new antibiotics
The current Lilliput review analyses the question whether scientific or economic hurdles prevented the registration of new antibiotics. Scientifically, substantial progress has been achieved over recent years. The lack of profitability for costly novel antibiotic development necessitates push and pull efforts of the public sector to complement what the

South African actinobacteria: A treasure trove of novel bioactive metabolites for drug discovery
Although South Africa is known as one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, based on its unique plants and animals, microorganisms have received much less attention.

In the search for new antibiotics active against macrolide-resistant pneumococci and Haemophilus influenzae, we synthesized a new class of 3-oxo-6-O-methylerythromycin derivatives, so-called “ketolides”. A keto function was introduced in position 3 after

What is the role of microbial biotechnology and genetic engineering in medicine?
Microbial biotechnology, the technological application of microorganisms, has been instrumental in producing significant natural bioactive products. These include antibiotics, antifungals, anticancer drugs, antiparasitics, antivirals, immunosuppressants, toxoid vaccines, and therapeutic enzymes.

In Vitro Activity of the Ketolide ABT-773 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The in vitro activities of ABT-773, azithromycin, erythromycin, and clindamycin were compared by testing 1,223 clinical isolates selected to represent different species and phenotypes. ABT-773 was particularly potent against staphylococci (the MIC at which 90% of the strains tested were inhibited [MIC 90
