Exploring aliphatic sulfonamides as multiclass inhibitors of the carbonic anhydrases from the pathogen bacterium Vibrio cholerae.

This study investigates aliphatic sulfonamide derivatives as inhibitors of the α-, β-, and γ-class carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoforms from Vibrio cholerae (VchCAs). A series of 26 compounds bearing a triazole linker and urea- or ether-based tails were described and evaluated for their inhibitory action using a stopped-flow CO hydrase technique. These inhibitors demonstrated a preferential efficacy against VchCAβ.

Kinetic and structural studies of gamma-carbonic anhydrase from the oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis.

Porphyromonas gingivalis, a key pathogen in periodontal, plays a critical role in systemic pathologiesdiseases by evading host defence mechanisms and invading periodontal tissues. Targeting its virulence mechanisms and overcoming drug resistance are essential steps toward effective therapeutic development. In this study, we focused on the Carbonic Anhydrase (CA, EC: 4.

Sulfonamide-Based Inhibition of the β-Carbonic Anhydrase from , a Multidrug-Resistant Bacterium.

is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen responsible for severe hospital-associated infections. Owing to its ability to develop resistance to a wide range of antibiotics, novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. One promising approach is to target bacterial carbonic anhydrases (CAs; EC 4.

Inhibition of Carbonic Anhydrases, Exploring Ciprofloxacin Functionalization Toward New Antibacterial Agents: An In-Depth Multidisciplinary Study.

Ciprofloxacin (CPX) is one of the most employed antibiotics in clinics to date. However, the rise of drug-resistant bacteria is dramatically impairing its efficacy, especially against life-threatening pathogens, such as . This Gram-negative bacterium is an opportunistic pathogen, often infecting immuno-compromised patients with severe or fatal outcomes.
