Repurposing clofarabine against enteric pathogens via metabolic starvation
Enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC/EHEC) cause severe global diarrhoeal disease, exacerbated by rising antimicrobial resistance. Pathogenesis relies on "attaching and effacing" lesions, where bacteria generate actin pedestals to adhere, replicate, and destroy intestinal microvilli. To identify novel anti-virulence candidates targeting this process, we conducted a…
