Antibiotics are a type of antimicrobial drug used in the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections.
James Graham from Recce Pharmaceuticals discusses how a new class of synthetic antibiotics could be the key to preventing the spread of antibiotic resistance.
Scientists have developed a new antimicrobial peptide therapy named D8 with high efficacy and low toxicity in mice which could be used to fight lung infections.
The vaccine candidate protected all murine models from a lethal MERS infection and could also be effective against the SARS-CoV-2 virus causing COVID-19.
A study has shown that plasmids use type IV CRISPR-Cas against competing plasmids, leading the researchers to suggest the method as a novel way to tackle multi-drug resistant bacteria.
Researchers have found that using antibiotics in combination with cannabidiol (CBD) enhanced their effect against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria.
Scientists suggest competence-blocking, ‘anti-evolution’ drugs could be administered alongside antibiotics to prolong the period before bacterial resistance emerges.
Researchers have developed a compound, called AB569, effective at combatting bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and have revealed its mechanism of action.
A new monoclonal antibody has been discovered which disassociates bacterial biofilms and stops bacteria from entering into circulation has been tested in mice.
International collaboration has shown that compounds with metals in them show antibacterial activity against MRSA, E. coli and A. baumannii.
A novel highly activated form of T cells could be suppressed to treat autoimmune conditions and activated in treating bacterial infections.
A new study has revealed how bacterial immune systems can be harmful for their hosts and why they are not found in all bacteria.
