https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Cisplatin.html Combination therapy may enhance imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam's (I/R) activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and suppress resistance development. Human-simulated unbound plasma concentrations of I/R at 1.25 g every 6 h (h), colistin at 360 mg daily, and amikacin at 25 mg/kg daily were reproduced alone and in combination against six imipenem-nonsusceptible P. aeruginosa isolates in an in vitro pharmacodynamic model over 24 h. For I/R alone, the mean reductions in CFU ± the standard errors by 24 h were -2.52 ± 0.49, -1.49 ± 0.49, -1.15 ± 0.67, and -0.61 ± 0.10 log10 CFU/ml against isolates with MICs of 1/4, 2/4, 4/4, and 8/4 μg/ml, respectively. Amikacin alone also resulted in 24 h CFU reductions consistent with its MIC, while colistin CFU reductions did not differ. Resistant subpopulations were observed after 24 h in 1, 4, and 3 I/R-, colistin-, and amikacin-exposed isolates, respectively. The combination of I/R and colistin resulted in synergistic (n = 1) or additive (n = 2) interactions against three isolates with 24-h CFU reductions ranging from -2.62 to -4.67 log10 CFU/ml. The combination of I/R and amikacin exhibited indifferent interactions against all isolates, with combined drugs achieving -0.51- to -3.33-log10 CFU/ml reductions. No resistant subpopulations were observed during I/R and colistin combination studies, and when added to amikacin, I/R prevented the emergence of amikacin resistance. Against these six multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa, I/R alone achieved significant CFU reductions against I/R-susceptible isolates. Combinations of I/R plus colistin resulted in additivity or synergy against some P. aeruginosa, whereas the addition of amikacin did not provide further antibacterial efficacy against these isolates.Phenotypic screening of inhibitors of the essential Mycobacterium tuberculosis FAS-II dehydratase HadAB led to the identification of GSK3011724A, a compound previously reported to inhibit th
