Brazilian researchers have shown that an iron‑based compound, ferroin, encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles, completely eradicated Mycobacterium tuberculosis from mouse lungs after a 30‑day course. The formulation, LNP@FEP, stabilizes the drug, enhances the activity of existing antibiotics, and targets bacterial cell‑wall synthesis. Current TB therapy requires six months of multidrug regimens, with resistance driving longer, more toxic treatments. Because ferroin is inexpensive and unpatented, it could enable low‑cost, shorter regimens pending human trials.
