AcrAB–TolC Inhibition by Peptide-Conjugated Phosphorodiamidate Morpholino Oligomers Restores Antibiotic Activity in Vitro and in Vivo
23 May 2019
Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of bacterial efflux pumps is a driver of increasing antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative pathogens. The AcrAB–TolC efflux pump has been implicated in resistance to a number of important antibiotic classes including fluoroquinolones, macrolides, and β-lactams. Antisense technology, such as peptide-conjugated phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMOs), can be utilized to inhibit expression of...
