Perturbation of hydroxyl radical accumulation by subinhibitory concentrations of 2,2'-bipyridyl plus thiourea protects Escherichia coli from being killed by 3 lethal antimicrobial classes. Here, we show that 2,2'-bipyridyl plus thiourea delays and/or reduces antimicrobial killing of Staphylococcus aureus by daptomycin, moxifloxacin, and oxacillin. While the protective effect of 2,2'-bipyridyl plus thiourea varied among strains and compounds, the data support the hypothesis that hydroxyl radical enhances antimicrobial lethality.
亚抑菌浓度的 2,2'-联吡啶加硫脲通过扰乱羟自由基积累来保护大肠杆菌免受 3 种致死性抗菌药物的杀伤。在这里,我们发现 2,2'-联吡啶加硫脲可延迟和/或降低达托霉素、莫西沙星和苯唑西林对金黄色葡萄球菌的杀菌作用。虽然 2,2'-联吡啶加硫脲的保护作用因菌株和化合物而异,但这些数据支持了羟自由基增强抗菌药物致死性的假设。
