Synthesis of Hydrazone Derivatives of 4-[4-Formyl-3-(2-oxochromen-3-yl)pyrazol-1-yl]benzoic acid as Potent Growth Inhibitors of Antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii.

ABSTRACT: Microbial resistance to drugs is an unresolved global concern, which is present in every country. Developing new antibiotics is one of the guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Preventions (CDC) to combat bacterial resistance to drugs. Based on our lead molecules, we report the synthesis and antimicrobial studies of 27 new pyrazole derivatives. These new coumarin-pyrazole-hydrazone hybrids are readily synthesized from commercially available starting materials and reagents using benign reaction conditions. All the synthesized molecules were tested against 14 Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Several of these molecules have been found to be potent growth inhibitors of several strains of these tested bacteria with minimum inhibitory concentrations as low as 1.56 ?g/mL. Furthermore, active molecules are non-toxic in in vitro and in vivo toxicity studies.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus represents a major human pathogen that is frequently involved in polymicrobial infections. However, the prevalence and role of co-infectious microbes on the pathogenesis and fitness essentiality of S. aureus in vivo remain largely unknown. In this study, we firstly performed a retrospective surveillance of 760 clinical samples and revealed a notable predominance of co-infection with S. aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii. The high-density S. aureus transposon mutant library coupled to transposon insertion sequencing (Tn-Seq) further identified a core set of genes enriched in metabolism of inorganic ions, amino acids, and carbohydrates, which are essential for infection and tissue colonization of S. aureus in the murine systemic infection model. Notably, we revealed a differential requirement of fitness factors for S. aureus in tissue-specific (liver and kidney) and infection-type-specific manner (mono- and co-infection). Co-infection with A. baumannii dramatically altered the fitness requirements of S. aureus in vivo; 49% of the mono-infection fitness genes in S. aureus strain Newman were converted to non-essential, and the functionality of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters was significantly elicited during co-infection. Furthermore, the number of genes essential during co-infection (503) outnumbers the genes essential during mono-infection (362). In addition, the roles of 3 infection-type-specific genes in S. aureus during mono-infection or co-infection with A. baumannii were validated with competitive experiments in vivo. Our data indicated a high incidence and clinical relevance of S. aureus and A. baumannii co-infection, and provided novel insights into establishing antimicrobial regimens to control co-infections. IMPORTANCE Polymicrobial infections are widespread in clinical settings, which potentially correlate with increased infection severity and poor clinical outcomes. Staphylococcus aureus is a formidable human pathogen that causes a variety of diseases in polymicrobial nature. Co-infection and interaction of S. aureus have been described with limited pathogens, mainly including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and influenza A virus. Thus far, the prevalence and role of co-infectious microbes on the pathogenesis and fitness essentiality of S. aureus in vivo remain largely unknown. Understanding the polymicrobial composition and interaction, from a community and genome-wide perspective, is thus crucial to shed light on S. aureus pathogenesis strategy. Here, our findings demonstrated, for the first time, that a high incidence rate and clinical relevance of co-infection was caused by S. aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii, illustrating the importance of polymicrobial nature in investigating S. aureus pathogenesis. The infection-type-specific genes likely serve as potential therapeutic targets to control S. aureus infections, either in mono- or co-infection situation, providing novel insights into the development of antimicrobial regimens to control co-infections.
