Optimization of a novel series of pyranopyridine RND efflux pump inhibitors

Highlights • Efflux pumps play a major role in multidrug resistance (MDR) in bacteria. • RND family efflux pumps are the major MDR pumps in the Gram-negative pathogens. • Efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) increase antibiotic efficacy and decrease resistance. • Recent advances in optimizing novel RND-tar...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Efflux pumps play a major role in multidrug resistance (MDR) in bacteria. • RND family efflux pumps are the major MDR pumps in the Gram-negative pathogens. • Efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) increase antibiotic efficacy and decrease resistance. • Recent advances in optimizing novel RND-targeting pyranopyridine EPIs are reviewed.
