Abstract
We evaluated the in vivo efficacy of three beta-cyclodextrin derivatives that block the anthrax protective antigen pore. These compounds were at least 15-fold more potent than previously described beta-cyclodextrins in protecting against anthrax lethal toxin in a rat model. One of the drugs was shown to protect mice from bacterial infection.Entities:
