Plant-Derived Phenolic Acids Boost Tetracycline to Fight Drug-Resistant Bacteria
Introduction Drug resistance continues to undermine one of the oldest lines of defense in modern medicine: antibiotics. A new wave of research shows that plant-derived phenolic acids can act as potent antibiotic adjuvants, restoring the efficacy of tetracycline against stubborn, drug-resistant bacteria. By both increasing drug uptake and weakening bacterial defense systems, these natural compounds…
