Antimicrobial lipopeptides and their uses II
- 總結
- New-generation polymyxins that target multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. These novel lipopeptide antibiotics have demonstrated superior in vivo efficacy and toxicity overcurrent polymyxin antibiotics.
- 技術優勢
- - Novel lipopeptide antibiotics that target multidrug-resistant Gram- negative bacteria
- Greater efficacy and significantly less nephrotoxicity in animal models than currently available Polymyxin B drugs and Colistin
- Potential for administration via intravenous, inhaled or topical routes
- 技術應用

- 詳細技術說明
- Using their polymyxin drug discovery platform, researchers from the Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences have identified a series of proprietary Polymyxin analogues that are active against Gram-negative ‘superbugs’.
The Monash researchers have completed in vivo efficacy and toxicity evaluations of the lipopeptide antibiotics in mouse models. When compared with commercially available Polymyxin B and Colistin, the lipopeptide analogues demonstrate improved antibacterial efficacy (Figure 1) and significantly less nephrotoxicity.
