Project description:There is an urgent need for novel antibiotics against carbapenem and 3rd generation cephalosporin-resistant Gram-negative pathogens, for which the last-resort antibiotics have lost most of their efficacy. We describe here a novel class of synthetic antibiotics that was inspired from natural product-derived scaffolds. The antibiotics have an unprecedented mechanism of action, which targets the main component (BamA) of the Bam folding machinery required for folding and insertion of ß-barrel proteins into the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. This OMPTA (outer membrane protein-targeting antibiotic) class shows potent activity against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative ESKAPE pathogens and overcomes colistin-resistance both in vitro and in vivo. A clinical candidate has the potential to address life threatening Gram-negative infections with high unmet medical need.

Project description:The alarming increase in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) will soon limit treatment options for even routine infections, especially those caused by Gram-negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii. Here, we report a two-pronged approach to identify new vulnerabilities in such pathogens. Staring from diphenyleneiodonium (dPI) salts, which are compounds that have moderate antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive pathogens, we synthesized a focused heterocyclic library and report a new analogue that has much higher inhibitory potency against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and excellent efficacy in reduction of bacterial burden in a mouse neutropenic thigh infection model. The lead compound was also found to synergize with aminoglycosides, which are routinely used in the treatment of such infections in humans. Further, we synthesized an alkyne containing probe and using gel and mass spectrometry base chemoproteomics platforms, we identified proteins that have redox cofactors as putative targets for this class of compounds. Additionally, we also demonstrate that the modification of proteins is covalent and through a cysteine residue. Together, using complementary chemical biology approaches, new vulnerabilities in Gram-negative pathogens were identified that would help address a burgeoning global problem of AMR.

Project description:Guanidine DNA quadruplex (G4-DNA) structures convey a distinctive layer of epigenetic information that is critical for the regulation of key biological activities and processes as genome transcription regulation, replication and repair. Despite several works that have been published recently, the information regarding their role and possible use as therapeutic drug targets in bacteria is still scarce. Here, we tested the biological activity of a small G4-DNA ligand library based on the naphthalene diimide (NDI) pharmacophore, against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. For the best compound identified, NDI-10, the action mechanism was further characterized. Gram-negative bacteria were more resistant altogether due to the presence of the outer membrane, although the activity of the G4-Ligand was generally bactericidal, while it was bacteriostatic for Gram-positive bacteria. This asymmetric activity could be related to the different prevalence of putative G4-DNA structures in each group, the influence that they can exert on the gene expression (which was found more severe for the Gram-negative bacteria) and the role of the G4 structures in these bacteria, that seems to be more related to promote transcription in Gram-positive bacteria and repress transcription in Gram-negative.

Project description:To explore the circulating miRNA expression after subcutaneous injection of Gram negative and positive bacteria in the mice The recombinant specific Gram negative pathogens Escherichia coli (xen14) and Gram positive pathogens Staphyllococcus aureus (xen29) were purchased from the Caliper (Caliper, Princeton, NJ, USA). 1M-CM-^W108 Escherichia coli or Staphyllococcus aureus pathogen in 100 M-NM-<l PBS was injected subcutaneously with Fr. 25 needle into the back of the mice to cause bacterial infection of the mice. An extra group of animals was inoculated with PBS to serve as a negative control. The mice had access to food and water ad libitum both before and after bacteria injection. The mice were killed at the indicated time points (4, 8, and 24 h) after the bacteria injection, and whole blood was drawn.

Project description:The mammalian immune system is constantly challenged by signals from both pathogenic and non-pathogenic microbes. Many of these non-pathogenic microbes have pathogenic potential if the immune system is compromised. The importance of type I interferons (IFNs) in orchestrating innate immune responses to pathogenic microbes has become clear in recent years. However, the control of opportunistic pathogens – and especially intracellular bacteria – by type I IFNs remains less appreciated. In this study, we use the opportunistic, Gram-negative bacterial pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia (Bc) to show that type I IFNs are capable of limiting bacterial replication in macrophages, preventing illness in immunocompetent mice. Sustained type I IFN signaling through cytosolic receptors allows for increased expression of autophagy and linear ubiquitination mediators, which slows bacterial replication. Transcriptomic analyses and in vivo studies also show that LPS stimulation does not replicate the conditions of intracellular Gram-negative bacterial infection as it pertains to type I IFN stimulation or signaling. This study highlights the importance of type I IFNs in protection against opportunistic pathogens through innate immunity, without the need for damaging inflammatory responses.
