Verapamil and its metabolite norverapamil inhibit the <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> MmpS5L5 efflux pump to potentiate the activity bedaquiline and other antitubercular drugs

2025-02-06

Abstract excerpt

Bedaquiline is the cornerstone of a new regimen for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis. However, its clinical use is threatened by the emergence of bedaquiline-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis . Bedaquiline targets mycobacterial ATP synthase but the predominant route to clinical bedaquiline resistance is via upregulation of the MmpS5L5 efflux pump due to mutations that inactivate the tran...
