Synthesis of 4,4'-(4-Formyl-1H-pyrazole-1,3-diyl)dibenzoic Acid Derivatives as Narrow Spectrum Antibiotics for the Potential Treatment of Acinetobacter Baumannii Infections.

ABSTRACT: Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as one of the most lethal drug-resistant bacteria in recent years. We report the synthesis and antimicrobial studies of 25 new pyrazole-derived hydrazones. Some of these molecules are potent and specific inhibitors of A. baumannii strains with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value as low as 0.78 µg/mL. These compounds are non-toxic to mammalian cell lines in in vitro studies. Furthermore, one of the potent molecules has been studied for possible in vivo toxicity in the mouse model and found to be non-toxic based on the effect on 14 physiological blood markers of organ injury.

1,2,4-Triazolidine-3-thiones as Narrow Spectrum Antibiotics against Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

Project description:With only two new classes of antibiotics developed in the last 40 years, novel antibiotics are desperately needed to combat the growing problem of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug resistant bacteria, particularly Gram-negative bacteria. Described in this letter is the synthesis and antibiotic activity of 1,2,4-triazolidine-3-thiones as narrow spectrum antibiotics. Optimization of the 1,2,4-triazolidine-3-thione scaffold identified a small molecule with potent antibiotic activity against multiple strains of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. This small molecule also shows single dose, in vivo activity in a Galleria mellonella infection model with A. baumannii and represents a promising start in the development of a class of drugs that can target this bacterial pathogen.

1,3-Di-4-pyridylpropane-4,4'-oxy-dibenzoic acid (1/1).

Project description:The hydro-thermal reaction of Cd(NO(3))(2)·4H(2)O, 1,3-di-4-pyridylpropane (BPP) and 4,4'-oxydibenzoic acid (OBA) led to the formation of the title compound, C(13)H(14)N(2)·C(14)H(10)O(5). The asymmetric unit consists of one mol-ecule of OBA and one of BPP. In the OBA mol-ecule, one COOH group is nearly planar with its attached benzene ring [dihedral angle = 0.9 (1)°], while the other COOH group is slightly twisted with a dihedral angle of 10.8 (3)°. The carboxyl groups form strong inter-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds with N atoms of the pyridine rings in BPP, linking the mol-ecules into zigzag chains.

Deep learning-guided discovery of a narrow-spectrum antibiotic against Acinetobacter baumannii

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial Gram-negative pathogen that often displays multidrug-resistance due to its robust outer membrane and its ability to acquire and retain extracellular DNA. Moreover, it can survive for prolonged durations on surfaces and is resistant to desiccation. Discovering new antibiotics against A. baumannii has proven challenging through conventional screening approaches. Fortunately, machine learning methods allow for the rapid exploration of chemical space, increasing the probability of discovering new chemical matter with antibacterial activity against this burdensome pathogen. Here, we screened ~7,500 molecules for those that inhibited the growth of A. baumannii in vitro. We trained a deep neural network with this growth inhibition dataset and performed predictions on the Drug Repurposing Hub for structurally novel molecules with activity against A. baumannii. Through this approach, we discovered abaucin, an antibacterial compound with narrow-spectrum activity against A. baumannii, which could overcome intrinsic and acquired resistance mechanisms in clinical isolates. Further investigations revealed that abaucin perturbs lipoprotein trafficking through a mechanism involving LolE, a functionally conserved protein that contributes to shuttling lipoproteins from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Moreover, abaucin was able to control an A. baumannii infection in a murine wound model. Together, this work highlights the utility of machine learning in discovering new antibiotics and describes a promising lead with narrow-spectrum activity against a challenging Gram-negative pathogen.
