Econazole as adjuvant to conventional antibiotics is able to eradicate starvation-induced tolerant bacteria by causing proton motive force dissipation

Miaomiao Wang et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that econazole in combination with conventional antibiotics can effectively kill antibiotic-tolerant bacteria by causing the dissipation of bacterial transmembrane proton motive force (PMF). The use of econazole and ceftazidime combination showed promising results in eradicating tolerant cells in a mouse infection model.

Synergistic antibacterial activity of tetrandrine combined with colistin against MCR-mediated colistin-resistant Salmonella

Kaifang Yi et al.

Summary: This study investigated the antibacterial activity and mechanism of action of tetrandrine in combination with colistin against MCR-positive Salmonella. The results showed significant synergistic activity between tetrandrine and colistin, enhancing colistin's membrane-damaging ability and inhibiting the expression of MCR-1. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the combination of tetrandrine and colistin significantly reduced bacterial load.

Unique mechanistic insights into pathways associated with the synergistic activity of polymyxin B and caspofungin against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Maytham Hussein et al.

Summary: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic Gram-negative pathogen that causes nosocomial infections. The combination of polymyxin B and the antifungal caspofungin exhibits marked synergistic antibacterial killing activity against K. pneumoniae. Moreover, the combination inhibits bacterial virulence pathways and multidrug efflux mechanisms.
