3-Amino-Substituted Analogues of Fusidic Acid as Membrane-Active Antibacterial Compounds

Abstract: Fusidic acid (FA) is an antibiotic with high activity against Staphylococcus aureus; it has been used in clinical practice since the 1960s. However, the narrow antimicrobial spectrum of FA limits its application in the treatment of bacterial infections. In this regard, this work aims both at the study of the antimicrobial effect of a number of FA amines and at the identification of their potential biological targets. In this way, FA analogues containing aliphatic and aromatic amino groups and biogenic polyamin… Show more

“…Moreover, spermine-based derivatives formed pores in lipid bilayers, mimicking bacterial membranes. This also contributed to the antibacterial effect of the obtained analogues [8]. Fusidane triterpenoid oximes were shown to effectively inhibit the bacteria growth and proliferation of cancer cells [18].…”

“…It is known that FA, and especially its derivatives, are able to integrate into lipid membranes and disrupt the dynamics of phospholipids [4,8]. In this work, we evaluated the effect of FA and its derivatives on the phase behavior and properties of lipid membranes, using a laurdan fluorescent probe.…”
