Anti-Tuberculosis Activity Present in a Unique Marine Bacteria Collection from Portuguese Deep Sea Hydrothermal Vents
Natural product drug discovery from untapped sources of microorganisms, such as the oceans, is full of innovative solutions and is again becoming increasingly explored by the pharmaceutical industry. In fact, interesting bioactivities such as anti-tumour, anti-microtubule and anti-proliferative have been successfully identified in the marine environment. Antibiotic properties of marine products, in particular, have been shown to be effective against several microbial infections and should be further explored for the treatment of infectious diseases such as Tuberculosis, which have become a great threat to global health.
