Effective treatment of gonorrhea is threatened by the increasing prevalence of strains resistant to the extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs). Recently, we demonstrated the promise of the third-generation cephalosporin cefoperazone as an antigonococcal agent due to its rapid second-order rate of acylation against penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) from the ESC-resistant strain H041 and robust antimicrobial activity against H041. Noting the presence of a ureido moiety in cefoperazone, we evaluated a subset of structurally similar ureido β-lactams, including piperacillin, azlocillin, and mezlocillin, for activity against PBP2 from H041 using biochemical and structural analyses.

Surgical site infections are among the most prevalent and costly healthcare-associated infections, resulting in poor patient outcomes and even death. Cefazolin is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that is widely used for surgical prophylaxis in a variety of surgical disciplines. Although previous studies showed that cefazolin is effective in preventing surgical site infections, other agents, such as cefuroxime and ceftriaxone, were used excessively for surgical patients.
