SPR741 TFA
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
SPR741 TFA (NAB741 TFA) is a cationic peptide derived from polymyxin B and is a potentiator molecule. SPR741 TFA increases the permeability of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria and is used to treat severe Gram-negative bacteria infections. SPR741 TFA inhibits multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. The spectrum of activity of the antibiotic can be widened when used in combination with SPR741 TFA.

Biological Activity
SPR741 potentiates antibiotics that are substrates of the AcrAB-TolC efflux pump in E. coli, effectively circumventing the contribution of this pump to intrinsic antibiotic resistance. The intrinsic resistance of E. coli to certain antibiotics that is mediated by both the outer membrane and the AcrAB-TolC efflux system can be overcome, or circumvented, by combining the antibiotic with SPR741 but that potentiation of intrinsic resistance due primarily to efflux may be limited[1].
SPR741 lacks significant antibacterial activity as a stand-alone agent but interacts with the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria to increase permeability and thereby improve the accumulation of coadministered antibiotics inside the pathogen[1].
