Brilacidin
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Brilacidin (PMX 30063) is an anti-infective antimicrobial with MIC90s of 1 and 8 μg/mL for Gram-positive bacteria Streptococcus pneumonia and Streptococcus viridans, and MIC90 of 8 and 4 μg/mL for Gram-negative bacteria Haemophilus influenza and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Brilacidin is a defensin mimetic antibiotic compound.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Both Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) have the lowest minimum inhibitory concentrations among the bacterial groups. The MIC90s to Brilacidin for Streptococcus pneumonia (SP), Streptococcus viridians (SV), Moraxella (MS), Haemophilus influenza (HI), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), and Serratia marcescens (SM) are 4, 32, 256, 32, 16, and 128-fold higher, respectively, than SA and SE. Brilacidin has Gram-positive in vitro activity; topical Brilacidin 0.5% is minimally irritating; and Brilacidin 0.5% was equally efficacious as Vancomycin (VAN) in a methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) keratitis model when the corneal epithelium is removed. Brilacidin acts primarily on the bacterial cell membrane by depolarization. Brilacidin is more potent for Gram-positive bacteria (except SV) than Gram-negative bacteria[2].
