Cirsiliol and Quercetin Inhibit ATP Synthesis and Decrease the Energy Balance in Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (MRSA) and Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> (MRSE) Strains Isolated from Patients

Cirsiliol and Quercetin Inhibit ATP Synthesis and Decrease the Energy Balance in Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (MRSA) and Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> (MRSE) Strains Isolated from Patients

Polyphenols have attracted attention in the fight against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, as they show antibacterial action. Considering that polyphenols inhibit F<sub>1</sub>F<sub>o</sub>-ATP synthase (ATP synthase) and that bacteria need a constant energy production to maint...
