Abstract
Liposomes, in addition to providing greater efficacy to antibiotics, decrease toxicity and increase selectivity. This work has as main objectives the sensitization of the need to solve bacterial resistance to antibiotics, addressing the potential of antibiotics carried by liposome. In the preparation of the liposomes, the lipids dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC), dipalmitoyl phosphatidylserine (DPPS), and cholesterol (COL) with > 99% purity were used. The Staphylococcus aureus strains used were SA-1199B, which expresses the NorA gene encoding the NorA efflux protein, which expels hydrophilic fluoroquinolones and other drugs intercalating DNA dyes, and the wild strain SA-1199. The liposomes associated with antibiotics in the wild type of strain SA-1199 and the carrier strain of pump 1199B, had a better representation of growth inhibition than the wild type strain SA-1199. Given the potential for inhibition of efflux pump seen in the results, we highlight the creation of new drugs or alteration of existing drugs. They are not recognized by the efflux pumps and removed from the target cell.
期刊介绍:
Chemistry and Physics of Lipids publishes research papers and review articles on chemical and physical aspects of lipids with primary emphasis on the relationship of these properties to biological functions and to biomedical applications.
Accordingly, the journal covers: advances in synthetic and analytical lipid methodology; mass-spectrometry of lipids; chemical and physical characterisation of isolated structures; thermodynamics, phase behaviour, topology and dynamics of lipid assemblies; physicochemical studies into lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions in lipoproteins and in natural and model membranes; movement of lipids within, across and between membranes; intracellular lipid transfer; structure-function relationships and the nature of lipid-derived second messengers; chemical, physical and functional alterations of lipids induced by free radicals; enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms of lipid peroxidation in cells, tissues, biofluids; oxidative lipidomics; and the role of lipids in the regulation of membrane-dependent biological processes.
