Metallo-β-Lactamase Inhibitor Phosphonamidate Monoesters.

ABSTRACT: Being the second leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability-adjusted life years worldwide, infectious diseases remain-contrary to earlier predictions-a major consideration for the public health of the 21^st century. Resistance development of microbes to antimicrobial drugs constitutes a large part of this devastating problem. The most widely spread mechanism of bacterial resistance operates through the degradation of existing β-lactam antibiotics. Inhibition of metallo-β-lactamases is expected to allow the continued use of existing antibiotics, whose applicability is becoming ever more limited. Herein, we describe the synthesis, the metallo-β-lactamase inhibition activity, the cytotoxicity studies, and the NMR spectroscopic determination of the protein binding site of phosphonamidate monoesters. The expression of single- and double-labeled NDM-1 and its backbone NMR assignment are also disclosed, providing helpful information for future development of NDM-1 inhibitors. We show phosphonamidates to have the potential to become a new generation of antibiotic therapeutics to combat metallo-β-lactamase-resistant bacteria.

Project description:Metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae are of grave clinical concern, particularly as there are no metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors approved for clinical use. The discovery and development of MBL inhibitors to restore the efficacy of available β-lactams are thus imperative. We investigated a zinc-chelating moiety, 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (TACN), for its inhibitory activity against clinical carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae MICs, minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs), the serum effect, fractional inhibitory concentration indexes, and time-kill kinetics were determined using broth microdilution techniques according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CSLI) guidelines. Enzyme kinetic parameters and the cytotoxic effects of TACN were determined using spectrophotometric assays. The interactions of the enzyme-TACN complex were investigated by computational studies. Meropenem regained its activity against carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae, with the MIC decreasing from between 8 and 64 mg/liter to 0.03 mg/liter in the presence of TACN. The TACN-meropenem combination showed bactericidal effects with an MBC/MIC ratio of ≤4, and synergistic activity was observed. Human serum effects on the MICs were insignificant, and TACN was found to be noncytotoxic at concentrations above the MIC values. Computational studies predicted that TACN inhibits MBLs by targeting their catalytic active-site pockets. This was supported by its inhibition constant (Ki ), which was 0.044 μM, and its inactivation constant (Kinact), which was 0.0406 min-1, demonstrating that TACN inhibits MBLs efficiently and holds promise as a potential inhibitor.IMPORTANCE Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE)-mediated infections remain a significant public health concern and have been reported to be critical in the World Health Organization's priority pathogens list for the research and development of new antibiotics. CRE produce enzymes, such as metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), which inactivate β-lactam antibiotics. Combination therapies involving a β-lactam antibiotic and a β-lactamase inhibitor remain a major treatment option for infections caused by β-lactamase-producing organisms. Currently, no MBL inhibitor-β-lactam combination therapy is clinically available for MBL-positive bacterial infections. Hence, developing efficient molecules capable of inhibiting these enzymes could be a promising way to overcome this phenomenon. TACN played a significant role in the inhibitory activity of the tested molecules against CREs by potentiating the activity of carbapenem. This study demonstrates that TACN inhibits MBLs efficiently and holds promises as a potential MBL inhibitor to help curb the global health threat posed by MBL-producing CREs.
