Journal ArticleDOI
The anti-bacterial action of diclofenac shown by inhibition of DNA synthesis.
TL;DR: Most strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria were inhibited by 50-100 mg/l of the anti-inflammatory agent, diclofenac sodium (Dc), which was found to be due to inhibition of DNA synthesis which was demonstrated using 2 micro Ci (3H) deoxythymidine uptake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential role of non-antibiotics (helper compounds) in the treatment of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections: mechanisms for their direct and indirect activities.
Marta Martins,Sujata G. Dastidar,Séamus Fanning,Jette E. Kristiansen,Joseph Molnár,Jean-Marie Pagès,Zsuzsanna Schelz,Gabriella Spengler,Miguel Viveiros,Leonard Amaral +9 more
TL;DR: A review of agents that have been shown to be efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) and which, if used as 'helper compounds' in combination with antibiotics to which the organism is initially resistant, may produce the required cure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential management of resistant microbial infections with a novel non-antibiotic: the anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac sodium
Noton K. Dutta,Subramanian Annadurai,Kaushiki Mazumdar,Sujata G. Dastidar,Jette E. Kristiansen,Joseph Molnár,Marta Martins,Leonard Amaral +7 more
TL;DR: The ability of Dc to protect mice from a virulent Salmonella infection was determined and the non-antibiotic drug Dc has potential for the management of problematic antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anti-inflammatory non-antibiotic helper compound diclofenac: an antibacterial drug target.
TL;DR: Diclofenac sodium was found to possess antibacterial activity against both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, and Mycobacterium spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Sensitive In vitro Spectrophotometric Hydrogen Peroxide Scavenging Assay using 1,10-Phenanthroline
Debanjan Mukhopadhyay,Pinakpani Dasgupta,Debalina Sinha Roy,Shauroseni Palchoudhuri,Ipsita Chatterjee,Shahnaz Ali,Sujata G. Dastidar +6 more
TL;DR: The proposed spectrophotometric method was rapid, cost effective, reproducible and highly specific to detect in vitro H 2 O 2 scavenging activity of diverse compounds.
