Membrane-active agents represent a promising alternative to overcome antibiotic resistance. Here, we report cationic-amphiphilic polymers with variations in the side chain architecture such as cyclization, isomerization and unsaturation that resulted in potent antibacterial activity and low mammalian cell toxicity with a membrane-active mode of action.
膜活性剂是克服抗生素耐药性的一种有前景的替代方法。在此,我们报道了侧链结构存在环化、异构化和不饱和等变化的阳离子两亲聚合物,这些聚合物具有强大的抗菌活性、对哺乳动物细胞毒性低以及膜活性作用模式。
