A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem
e.g. searching for members in projects tagged cancer

Aim: To investigate the action mechanism of 1-benzyl-1,4-diazepane (1-BD) as efflux pump inhibitor (EPI) in Escherichia coli mutants: ΔacrAB or overexpressing AcrAB and AcrEF efflux pumps. Materials & methods: Effect of 1-BD on: antibiotic potentiation, by microdilution method; membrane functionality, by fluorimetric assays; ethidium bromide accumulation, by fluorometric real-time efflux assay; AcrB expression, by quantitative photoactivated localization microscopy. Results: 1-BD decreases the minimal inhibitory concentration of levofloxacin and other antibiotics and increase ethidium bromide accumulation in E. coli overexpressing efflux pumps but not in the ΔacrAB strain. 1-BD increases membranes permeability, without sensibly affecting inner membrane polarity and decreases acrAB transcription. Conclusion: 1-BD acts as an EPI in E. coli with a mixed mechanism, different from that of major reference EPIs.
