Mechanisms of enhanced oral availability of CYP3A4 substrates by grapefruit constituents : Decreased enterocyte CYP3A4 concentration and mechanism-based inactivation by furanocoumarins

TL;DR: The effect of grapefruit juice on oral availability of CYP3A4 substrates can be largely accounted for by the presence of 6',7'-dihydroxybergamottin although other furanocoumarins probably also contribute.

Lipid biosynthesis as a target for antibacterial agents.

TL;DR: The site of action of isoniazid, used in the treatment of tuberculosis for 50 years, and the consumer antimicrobial agent triclosan were revealed recently to be the enoyl-ACP reductase of the type II FAS, which contrasts sharply with the type I FAS of eukaryotes.

Prospects for new antibiotics: a molecule-centered perspective

TL;DR: This work brings a molecule-centered perspective to the questions of where will new scaffolds come from, when will chemogenetic approaches yield useful new antibiotics and what existing bacterial targets merit contemporary re-examination.
