Congratulations to Dr. NISHTHA CHANDAL, Dr. Ritu Kalia, Ph.D., Akash Dey, Dr. Rushikesh Tambat, Dr. Nisha Mahey, PhD, Prof. (Dr.) Sanjay Jachak, and Dr. Hemraj Nandanwar on their publication titled "𝐒𝐲𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐝𝐫𝐮𝐠-𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦-𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚" in Communications Biology (Nature, Impact Factor: 5.2)! 🎉 This remarkable study presents two new antibacterials, SMJ-2 and SMJ-4, found fortuitously while screening for efflux pump inhibitors for the NorA efflux pump in S. aureus. This identifies SMJ-2 and SMJ-4 as potential solutions against multidrug-resistant gram-positive bacteria, with SMJ-2 proving more active. SMJ-2 uniquely inhibits respiratory metabolism, disrupts membrane potential, and targets the mevalonate pathway, blocking antioxidant synthesis and enabling pathogen destruction by phagocytic cells. Importantly, it exhibits a strong safety profile, with no significant toxicity observed in mouse models. 📄 Read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/gvU8bCu5 #ResearchExcellence #AntibioticResistance #DrugDiscovery #CommunicationsBiology #Nature #NIPERM #DONP
