[Advances in the study of anti-MRSA natural products]
Abstract:
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a multi-drug resistant pathogenic bacteria, which has seriously threatened human health for a long time. Discovery of novel anti-MRSA lead compounds with high efficiency and low toxicity represents an important research focus in the realm of antibiotic studies. Owing to their structural diversity and complexity, natural products have exhibited unique advantages and great potential in the development of anti-MRSA new drugs.This review summarizes the studies of anti-MRSA natural products and their relevant medicinal chemistry reported since 2010.
