Sarecycline is a tetracycline-class antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, preventing the addition of amino acids to the growing peptide chain. It also has anti-inflammatory properties through inhibition of neutrophil chemotaxis and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
