Membrane-targeting antibiotics: recent developments outside the peptide space
AbstractAbstract
The rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria requires unconventional strategies toward efficient chemotherapeutic agents, preferably with alternative mechanisms of action. The bacterial cell membrane has become an appealing target since its essential and ...Using fluorescence microscopy to shed light on the mechanisms of antimicrobial peptides
AbstractAbstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising in the fight against increasing bacterial resistance, but the development of AMPs with enhanced activity requires a thorough understanding of their mechanisms of action. Fluorescence microscopy is one of the ...Functionalization of nanostructures for antibiotic improvement: an interdisciplinary approach
AbstractAbstract
The resistance of infectious bacteria to current antibiotics is a worldwide problem caused, partially, by the overuse of antimicrobials. The use of nanotechnology as an innovative tool against bacterial infections provides a range of methodologies to ...
