<i>In vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> activity profiles of broad-spectrum bacterial ATP synthase inhibitors
2025-08-23
Abstract excerpt
Tomatidine ( TO ), a natural steroidal alkaloid derived from Solanaceae (e.g., tomato), is recognized for its narrow-spectrum antibiotic activity, particularly against persistent forms of Staphylococcus aureus , such as small-colony variants (SCVs). Previous studies have shown that TO exerts its effect by inhibiting S. aureus ATP synthase. In earlier work, we synthesized nearly 100 TO analogs featuring an eth...
