Ciprofloxacin caused an increase of Stx production in all but two strains, while gentamicin, meropenem and azithromycin did not induce Stx production in any of the STEC strains examined. STEC O104H4 was the serotype that in greatest extent responded to antimicrobial exposure with an increase of stx2a transcription and Stx production. Gentamicin, meropenem and azithromycin exposure did not result in elevated Stx production. We recommend that this finding is investigated further in the search for candidates for future antimicrobial treatment of STEC.

However, the triple antibiotic paste - TAP (metronidazole, minocycline, and ciprofloxacin), used for these therapies, can generate cytotoxicity and dentin discoloration. In contrast, host defense peptides (HDPs) are promising antimicrobial and immunomodulatory biomolecules for dentistry. This study aimed to evaluate in vitro the antimicrobial activity (against Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis) and the immunomodulatory potential (by the evaluation of IL-1α, IL-6, IL-12, IL-10, TNF-α and NO, in RAW 264.7 macrophages and IL-6, TGF-β and NO, in L929 fibroblast) of synthetic peptides (DJK-6, IDR-1018, and IDR-1002), compared to TAP in an in vitro infection model containing heat-killed antigens from E. faecalis and S. aureus. Furthermore, the synergistic potential of ciprofloxacin and IDR-1002 was evaluated by checkerboard. Ciprofloxacin was the best antimicrobial of TAP, besides acting in synergism with IDR-1002. TAP was pro
