Abstract:
:Tuberculosis (TB) accounted for 1.5 million deaths in 2014, and new classes of anti-TB drugs are required. We report a class of functionalized 1,8-disubstituted cyclam derivatives that display low micromolar activity against pathogenic mycobacteria. These compounds inhibit intracellular growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are nontoxic to human cell lines, and are active against multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis strains, indicating a distinct mode of action. These compounds warrant further appraisal as novel agents to control TB in humans.
