  • Repositioning of Fluoroquinolones: A New Approach in Antitumor Therapy
    Jeferson Ricardo da Silva, Jaqueline Barbosa de Souza, Lara Limeira de Oliveira, Luís André de Almeida Campos, Isabella Macário Ferro Cavalcanti
    Biology, 2026
    Fluoroquinolones are known for their antibacterial properties, but recent research has revealed their potential to inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. Thus, this study aimed to emphasize the repositioning and potential of fluoroquinolones as possible therapeutic tools in the fight against cancer, opening up new perspectives for the field of oncology. Thus, this paper consists of a descriptive literature review of recent studies published between 2013 and 2023 on the use of fluoroquinolones in anticancer therapy. The results indicate that fluoroquinolones can interfere with the cell cycle, induce apoptosis and oxidative stress, and impact factors associated with tumorigenesis, such as the transcription of ectopic expression of SNAI1 for epithelial–mesenchymal transition. In addition, studies show that combining fluoroquinolones with other antineoplastic agents can increase their efficacy, and the possibility of encapsulating these drugs in controlled-release systems is also emerging as a promising antitumor strategy. In conclusion, repositioning fluoroquinolones in antitumor therapy presents an expanding field of research, offering new perspectives for cancer treatment. However, more studies are needed to fully elucidate their potential and establish effective clinical use protocols.

  • Usnic acid chitosan-coated liposomes synergistic activity with polymyxin B against multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii clinical in vitro
    Davi de Lacerda Coriolano, Jaqueline Barbosa de Souza, Maria Amelia Vieira Maciel, Karitas Farias Alves Lima, Luís André de Almeida Campos, Isabella Macário Ferro Cavalcanti
    Future Microbiology, 2026
    Background The rise of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii, necessitates innovative treatment strategies. Usnic acid (UA), a natural compound with antimicrobial properties, has limited clinical use due to poor solubility and toxicity. This study evaluated the antibacterial, antibiofilm, and hemocompatibility profiles of UA encapsulated in chitosan-coated liposomes (Lipo-UA-Chi), alone and in combination with polymyxin B (PMB).Methods UA, PMB, Lipo-UA-Chi, and their combinations were tested in vitro against MDR clinical strains of P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii. Antibacterial activity was assessed via broth microdilution and checkerboard assays. Antibiofilm inhibition and eradication were evaluated using the crystal violet method. Hemolytic activity was measured to assess cytotoxicity.Results The Lipo-UA-Chi + PMB combination demonstrated additive or synergistic interactions in all tested strains, with MIC reductions of up to 128-fold for PMB and 4-fold for Lipo-UA-Chi. This combination also achieved superior biofilm inhibition, reaching up to 100% in specific P. aeruginosa strains, and eradication of up to 81.3%.Conclusion These findings highlight Lipo-UA-Chi combined with PMB as a promising and biocompatible strategy to improve antimicrobial efficacy and biofilm control in MDR infections. Although limited to in vitro evaluation, these findings support the potential of this formulation as a promising alternative to current polymyxin-based regimens.

  • Resistance in gram-negative bacilli: the emergence of RND efflux pumps
    Maria Anndressa Alves Agreles, Ana Larissa Pereira de Moura, Karitas Farias Alves Lima, Caio Augusto Martins Aires, Luís André de Almeida Campos, Isabella Macário Ferro Cavalcanti
    Future Microbiology, 2025
    The rise of antimicrobial resistance has been a significant problem in recent decades, decreasing the effectiveness of antibiotics and making the treatment of infections increasingly difficult. This phenomenon can be acquired through various mechanisms, with antibiotic efflux mediated by proteins known as efflux pumps being one of the most important. Currently, these protein systems are classified into six major families. The resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) superfamily significantly contributes to multidrug resistance, particularly against tetracyclines, aminoglycosides, β-lactams, macrolides, and fluoroquinolones. This is largely due to its broad substrate specificity and widespread distribution among Gram-negative bacteria, including members of the Enterobacterales order and non-fermenting bacilli, with pumps connecting the inner and outer membranes throughout the periplasm and forming complexes that efficiently expel antibiotics from the cell. Given the importance of these efflux proteins in bacterial resistance and physiology, several authors have sought to characterize and report new isolates and emerging pumps worldwide, as awareness of low antimicrobial susceptibility and its contributors can aid decision-making for infection control. Therefore, this study aimed to gather and analyze available data in the literature regarding the functioning and emergence of efflux pumps belonging to the RND family and highlight those with greater clinical importance, along with previously identified inhibitors to combat this resistance mechanism.
  • Synthesis of polymeric nanoparticles by double emulsion and pH-driven: encapsulation of antibiotics and natural products for combating Escherichia coli infections
    Luís André de Almeida Campos, Jaqueline Barbosa de Souza, Hanne Lazla Rafael de Queiroz Macêdo, Joyce Cordeiro Borges, David Nattan de Oliveira, Isabella Macário Ferro Cavalcanti
    Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2024
    The design, development, and obtaining of nanostructured materials, such as polymeric nanoparticles, have garnered interest due to loading therapeutic agents and its broad applicability. Polymeric nanoparticle synthesis employs advanced techniques such as the double emulsion approach and the pH-driven method, allowing the efficient incorporation of active compounds into these matrices. These loading methods ensure compound stability within the polymeric structure and enable control of the release of therapeutic agents. The ability of loaded polymeric nanoparticles to transport and release therapeutic agents on target manner represents a significant advancement in the quest for effective therapeutic solutions. Amid escalating concerns regarding antimicrobial resistance, interventions using polymeric nanostructures stand out for the possibility of carrying antimicrobial agents and enhancing antibacterial action against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, making a new therapeutic approach or complement to conventional treatments. In this sense, the capability of these polymeric nanoparticles to act against Escherichia coli underscores their relevance in controlling bacterial infections. This mini-review provides a comprehensive synthesis of promising techniques for loading therapeutic agents into polymeric nanoparticles highlighting methodologies and their implications, addressing prospects of combating bacterial infections caused by E. coli. Key points • The double emulsion method provides control over size and release of bioactives. • The pH-driven method improves the solubility, stability, and release of active. • The methods increase the antibacterial action of those encapsulated in PNPs.

    Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2024
    The present work aimed to develop, characterize, and evaluate the antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of two nanoemulsions (NEs) containing 500 µg/mL of curcumin from Curcuma longa (CUR). These NEs, produced with heating, contain olive oil (5%) and the surfactants tween 80 (5%) and span 80 (2.5%), water q.s. 100 mL, and were stable for 120 days. NE-2-CUR presented Ø of 165.40 ± 2.56 nm, PDI of 0.254, ζ of − 33.20 ± 1.35 mV, pH of 6.49, and Entrapment Drug Efficiency (EE) of 99%. The NE-4-CUR showed a Ø of 105.70 ± 4.13 nm, PDI of 0.459, ζ of − 32.10 ± 1.45 mV, pH of 6.40 and EE of 99.29%. Structural characterization was performed using DRX and FTIR, thermal characterization using DSC and TG, and morphological characterization using SEM, suggesting that there is no significant change in the CUR present in the NEs and that they remain stable. The MIC was performed by the broth microdilution method for nine gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates resistant to antibiotics and biofilm and efflux pump producers. The NEs mostly showed a bacteriostatic profile. The MIC varied between 125 and 250 µg/mL. The most sensitive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis, for which NE-2-CUR showed a MIC of 125 µg/mL. The NEs and ceftazidime (CAZ) interaction was also evaluated against the K. pneumoniae resistant clinical isolates using the Checkerboard method. NE-2-CUR and NE-4-CUR showed a synergistic or additive profile; there was a reduction in CAZ MICs between 256 times (K26-A2) and 2 times (K29-A2). Furthermore, the NEs inhibited these isolates biofilms formation. The NEs showed a MBIC ranging from 15.625 to 250 µg/mL. Thus, the NEs showed physicochemical characteristics suitable for future clinical trials, enhancing the CAZ antibacterial and antibiofilm activity, thus becoming a promising strategy for the treatment of bacterial infections caused by multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae. Key points • The NEs showed physicochemical characteristics suitable for future clinical trials. • The NEs showed a synergistic/additive profile, when associated with ceftazidime. • The NEs inhibited biofilm formation of clinical isolates.
