Abstract EN
Daptomycin (DAP), a cyclic lipopeptide produced by Streptomyces roseosporus, is a novel antibiotic to clinically treat various Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria-induced infections.
Although DAP has a strong broad-spectrum bactericidal effect, recently rare bacterial antibiotic resistance against DAP gradually arises.
The review is to summarize the normal indications of DAP, its off-label usage against several clinical pathogen infections, the unique antibacterial mechanisms of DAP, and the combination of antibiotic therapies for highly DAP-resistant pathogens.
More noticeably, rising evidences demonstrate that DAP has new potential activity of anticancer and immunomodulatory effects.
So far the multifunctional pharmaceutical effects of DAP deserve to be further explored for future clinical applications.
