Streptococcus pneumoniae is the primary cause of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia with rates of penicillin and multi-drug resistance exceeding 80% and 40%, respectively. The innate immune response generates a variety of antimicrobial agents to control infection including zinc stres...

To investigate the effect of the Zn ionophore, PBT2, on the transcriptomic response of Fusobacterium nucleatum ATCC 25586, RNA was extracted from bacterial samples which had been treated as follows: Untreated (0.006% DMSO v/v), DMSO-Zn treated (0.006% DMSO v/v + 200 uM ZnSO4), or PBT2-Zn treated (0....

Ionophores are antibacterial compounds that affect bacterial growth by changing intracellular concentrations of the essential cations, sodium and potassium. They are extensively used in animal husbandry to increase productivity and reduce infectious diseases. Given their widespread usage, it is impo...

Cuproptosis, a recently defined copper-dependent cell death, remains largely unexplored in tumor therapies, particularly in breast cancer. Our study demonstrates that triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) bears a relative elevated copper levels and exhibit resistance to cuproptosis. Mechanistically, ...

This study reports on the co-administration of a zinc ionophore (PBT-2) and ampicillin to break antibiotic resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae in a murine pneumonia model. The molecular mechanism for this heightened antimicrobial activity was identified through transcriptomic and metabolomic anal...
