Modular Design of Membrane-Active Antibiotics: From Macromolecular Antimicrobials to Small Scorpionlike Peptidomimetics

Minghui Wang et al.

Summary: A new class of small amphiphilic scorpionlike peptidomimetics were designed based on bioengineering, showing potent antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria without drug resistance. In vivo experiments demonstrated the lead compound's impressive therapeutic efficacy in treating MRSA infections, with a significantly higher bactericidal efficiency compared to ciprofloxacin. These results highlight the potential of these HDP mimics as novel antibiotic therapeutics.

Development of Membrane-Active Honokiol/Magnolol Amphiphiles as Potent Antibacterial Agents against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)

Yong Guo et al.

Summary: The synthesized honokiol/magnolol amphiphile 5i showed excellent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria and clinical MRSA isolates, with low MIC values. Additionally, 5i exhibited rapid bactericidal properties, low resistance frequency, and good capabilities of disrupting bacterial biofilms.

Development of Amphiphilic Coumarin Derivatives as Membrane-Active Antimicrobial Agents with Potent In Vivo Efficacy against Gram-Positive Pathogenic Bacteria

Rongcui Zhong et al.

Summary: Compound 25, a newly designed amphiphilic coumarin derivative, showed potent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA, with low hemolytic activity and toxicity. It can quickly kill bacteria by disrupting cell membranes and demonstrated excellent efficacy in a murine corneal infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus. This suggests that compound 25 has great potential as a potent antimicrobial agent for treating drug-resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections.
