| Bioactivity | Neomycin sulfate, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, exerts antibacterial activity through irreversible binding of the nuclear 30S ribosomal subunit, thereby blocking bacterial protein synthesis. Neomycin sulfate is a known phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor. Neomycin sulfate potently inhibits both nuclear translocation of angiogenin and angiogenin-induced cell proliferation and angiogenesis[1][2]. |
| Invitro | Neomycin is effective against most gram-negative organisms except Pseudomonas aeruginosa and anaerobic bacteria. Its activity against gram-positive microorganisms is more or less limited to staphylococci, but bacterial resistance supervenes after prolonged use[1]. |
