* Why Brilacidin Works So Well*
Post# of 72447
In bacteria the pathogen cannot exist without it's cellular membrane.
In viruses Brilacidin inhibits the protein spikes and other proteins the virus uses to gain cellular entry. The alpha virus outer protective coating (armor) is essentially "scattered in the wind" where the T-cell plus other phagocytes and B-cell epitopes will make short work of it.
The drug resistant syphilis cannot exist without it spiral carbohydrate coating
The outer membrane of syphillis (T. pallidum) contains carbohydrates, along with lipids and proteins. These are all easily disassembled by Brilacidin.
Penicillin interferes with the syphilis bacteria's ability to build and maintain its cell wall.
Brilacidin completely destroys it's cell wall in mere seconds, as it is a defensin protein and completely "shreds" the protective membrane and leaves the lipid layers in human cells intact.
In does not cause inflammation as do so many antibiotics, hence it can be used for encephalitis where as antibiotics would cause inflammation and result in serious brain damage.
