Copper-Based Antibiotic Strategies: Exploring applications in the hospital setting and the targeting of Cu Regulatory Pathways and Current Drug Design Trends

2023-05-23

Abstract excerpt

Classical antibacterial drugs were designed to target specific bacterial properties distinct from host human cells to maximize potency and selectivity. These designs were quite effective as they could be easily derivatized to bear next generation drugs. However, the rapid mutation of bacteria and their associated acquired drug resistance have led to the rise of highly pathogenic superbug bacterial strains for whic...
