A screen of 20 compounds identified small molecule adjuvants capable of potentiating anitbiotic activty against . Analogue synthesis of an initial hit compound led to the discovery of a potentially new class of small molecule adjuvants containg an indole core. The lead compound was able to lower the MIC of colistin by 32-fold against intrinsically resistant .
对20种化合物进行筛选,确定了能够增强抗生素对……活性的小分子佐剂。对最初筛选出的活性化合物进行类似物合成,发现了一类潜在的含吲哚核心的新型小分子佐剂。该先导化合物能够使黏菌素对固有耐药菌的最低抑菌浓度降低32倍。
