Carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), a proton pump inhibitor, has shown good bacteriostatic activity against\n              <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              . This study aimed to determine its synergistic antimicrobial effects when combined with commonly used antibiotics. The\n              <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              reference strain and 39 clinical isolates were collected. The minimum inhibitory concentration and fractional inhibitory concentration index were determined for the combined treatment using CCCP with various antibiotics including clarithromycin, amikacin, linezolid, bedaquiline, and clofazimine. A time-killing assay was used to measure the effect of the combined drug regimens quantitatively. The simultaneous use of CCCP with traditional antibiotics shows a synergistic effect across a wide range, significantly boosting the ability to inhibit the growth of\n              <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              throughout its growth phases. When CCCP is used in combination with clarithromycin, amikacin, and linezolid, it produces a synergistic effect on both the standard strain and most clinical isolates. When CCCP is paired with bedaquiline and clofazimine, it exhibits additive effects. Moreover, high levels of CCCP in combination with other antibiotics were found to rapidly eradicate the bacteria. The use of CCCP as a potential treatment for\n              <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              infections shows promising results, especially when combined with other antibiotics to achieve a potent bactericidal effect.\n            <\/jats:p>\n            <jats:sec>\n              <jats:title>IMPORTANCE<\/jats:title>\n              <jats:p>\n                <jats:italic>Mycobacterium abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n                poses a significant public health threat due to its intrinsic resistance to a broad spectrum of conventional antibiotics. This resistance necessitates urgently exploring novel therapeutic strategies to effectively combat infections caused by this pathogen. Our previous research has identified carbonyl cyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) as a potent direct antimicrobial agent against\n                <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n                and as an enhancer of clarithromycin activity. Our results demonstrate that the concurrent administration of CCCP with traditional antibiotics exhibits a synergistic effect across a wide range, which could be crucial for overcoming the challenges posed by\n                <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n                infections. Furthermore, the use of high concentrations of CCCP in combination with other antibiotics was found to rapidly eliminate\n                <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n                , suggesting a potential therapeutic advantage. These insights not only advance our understanding of antimicrobial synergy but also hold promise for the development of more effective treatment regimens against drug-resistant\n                <jats:italic>M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n                infections.\n              <\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1128\/spectrum.01777-24","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,27]],"date-time":"2024-12-27T14:01:58Z","timestamp":1735308118000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Efficacy of carbonyl cyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone in combination with antibiotics against\n            <i>Mycobacterium abscessus<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Jifang","family":"Zheng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Haoran","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fengmin","family":"Huo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Junnan","family":"Jia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4295-4262","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Hairong","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2800-1983","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Suting","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Clinical Laboratory on Tuberculosis, Beijing Key Laboratory for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Research, Beijing Chest Hospital, Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Institute, Capital Medical University","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","first-page":"772","article-title":"Rapidly growing mycobacterial infections: spectrum of diseases, antimicrobial susceptibility, pathology and treatment outcomes","volume":"86","author":"Sungkanuparph S","year":"2003","unstructured":"Sungkanuparph S, Sathapatayavongs B, Pracharktam R. 2003.
