Towards the sustainable discovery and development of new antibiotics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a strategic blueprint to substantially improve our ability to discover and develop new antibiotics, and propose both short-term and long-term solutions to overcome the most urgent limitations in the various sectors of research and funding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indoleamides are active against drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis

TL;DR: Lead compounds, the indoleamides, with potent activity against both drug-susceptible and drug-resistant strains of M. tuberculosis by targeting the mycolic acid transporter MmpL3 are described, indicating great potential for translational developments of this structure class for the treatment of drug- resistant tuberculosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

From serendipity to rational antituberculosis drug discovery of mefloquine-isoxazole carboxylic acid esters.

TL;DR: Compound 9d with an alkene linker was found to be both more metabolically stable and more potent than compound 3, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.2 microM against replicating and nonreplicating Mycobaterium tuberculosis.
