New Compound PS757 Fights Drug-Resistant Bacteria, Guides GmPcide Development
Aug 5, 2024, 07:05 AM
Researchers have discovered a new compound, PS757, that shows promise in fighting flesh-eating and other drug-resistant bacteria. This revolutionary dual-action antibiotic makes bacterial resistance nearly impossible by damaging the cell membranes of the bacteria. The findings, which were tested on Gram-positive pathogens in mice, are expected to guide the development and optimization of a new class of antibiotics called GmPcide compounds. The discovery was announced on August 4 and further detailed on August 5.
