Research problem:
Is it possible to synthesize more potent inhibitors with more favorable ADMET profiles than PJ34 to inhibit exotoxin A in the context of pharmacology to combat nosocomial infections caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa ?
Hypothesis:
According to Yates et al. (2005), there is a possibility that derivatives of the compound PJ34 with a longer R group could be more potent inhibitors. Thus, the present research has the following basic hypothesis: by extending the R group of PJ34 , it is possible to synthesize derivatives of this substance that are more potent inhibitors of exotoxin A and with an ADMET profile more suitable for treating nosocomial infections of Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Therefore, these derivatives would be candidates for new methods of treating P. aeruginosa infections, generating new types of more effective drugs to combat more severe symptoms.
