AbstractEight new sugar-substituted isoxazoles were synthesized by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of aromatic nitrile oxides with carbohydrate-substituted alkynes. Products were screened for antimycobacterial activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Four compounds, 5e–h, significantly inhibit growth of the bacterial strain with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 3.125 μg/mL.

AbstractTuberculosis is a chronic disease that displays several features commonly associated with biofilm-associated infections: immune system evasion, antibiotic treatment failures, and recurrence of infection. However, although Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) can form cellulose-containing biofilms in vitro, it remains unclear whether biofilms are formed during infection in vivo. Here, we demonstrate the formation of Mtb biofilms in animal models of infection and in patients, and that biofilm formation can contribute to drug tolerance. First, we show that cellulose is also a structural component of the extracellular matrix of in vitro biofilms of fast and slow-growing nontuberculous mycobacteria. Then, we use cellulose as a biomarker to detect Mtb biofilms in the lungs of experimentally infected mice and non-human primates, as well as in lung tissue sections obtained from patients with tuberculosis. Mtb strains defective in biofilm formation are attenuated for survival in mice, suggesting that biofilms protect bacilli from the host immune system. Furthermore, the administration of nebulized cellulase enhances the antimycobacterial activity of isoniazid and rifampicin in infected mice, supporting a role for biofilms in phenotypic drug tolerance. Our findings thus indicate that Mtb biofilms are relevant to human tuberculosis.

Reports have shown that oleanolic acid (OA), a triterpenoid, exists widely in food, medicinal herbs and other plants, and that it has antimycobacterial activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv (ATCC 27294). In this study it was found that OA had antimycobacterial properties against eight clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis and that the MICs of OA against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant isolates were 50–100 and 100–200 μg ml−1, respectively. The combination of OA with isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RMP) or ethambutol (EMB) showed favourable synergistic antimycobacterial effects against six drug-resistant strains, with fractional inhibitory concentration indices of 0.121–0.347, 0.113–0.168 and 0.093–0.266, respectively. The combination treatments of OA/INH, OA/RMP and OA/EMB displayed either a synergistic interaction or did not show any interaction against two drug-sensitive strains. No antagonism resulting from the OA/INH, OA/RMP or OA/EMB combination was observed for any of the strains tested. OA exhibited a relatively low cytotoxicity in Vero cells. These results indicate that OA may serve as a promising lead compound for future antimycobacterial drug development.

ABSTRACT Host-directed therapy in tuberculosis is a potential adjunct to antibiotic chemotherapy directed at Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Ambroxol, a lead compound, emerged from a screen for autophagy-inducing drugs. At clinically relevant doses, ambroxol induced autophagy in vitro and in vivo and promoted mycobacterial killing in macrophages. Ambroxol also potentiated rifampin activity in a murine tuberculosis model.

ABSTRACT8-Nitro-benzothiazinones (BTZs), such as BTZ043 and PBTZ169, inhibit decaprenylphosphoryl-β-d-ribose 2′-oxidase (DprE1) and display nanomolar bactericidal activity againstMycobacterium tuberculosisin vitro. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed the 8-nitro group of the BTZ scaffold to be crucial for the mechanism of action, which involves formation of a semimercaptal bond with Cys387 in the active site of DprE1. To date, substitution of the 8-nitro group has led to extensive loss of antimycobacterial activity. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of the pyrrole-benzothiazinones PyrBTZ01 and PyrBTZ02, non-nitro-benzothiazinones that retain significant antimycobacterial activity, with MICs of 0.16 μg/ml againstM. tuberculosis. These compounds inhibit DprE1 with 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of <8 μM and present favorablein vitroabsorption-distribution-metabolism-excretion/toxicity (ADME/T) andin vivopharmacokinetic profiles. The most promising compound, PyrBTZ01, did not show efficacy in a mouse model of acute tuberculosis, suggesting that BTZ-mediated killing through DprE1 inhibition requires a combination of both covalent bond formation and compound potency.

A series of 14 hydrochlorides of piperidinylethyl esters of orthosubstituted phenylcarbamic acids were evaluated for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against the strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobactenum kansasii and Mycobactenum avium. In vitro antimycobacterial activrty becomes higher with increasing hydrophobicity of the substituents. The alkoxy group is not necessary in order for the basic ethyl esters of phenylcarbamic acids to display antimycobacterial activity.

AbstractAs a part of our systematic study of antimycobacterially active derivatives of salicylamides, a series of nineteen derivatives of N-(2-pyridylmethyl)salicylamides and N-(3-pyridylmethyl)salicylamides was synthesised. The compounds exhibited in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. avium. Their lipophilicity, R M, was measured by thin layer chromatography on silica gel impregnated with trioctadecylsilane and the logarithm of the partition coefficient (octanol-water), logP, was calculated. Both the parameters of lipophilicity correlated. The quantitative relationship between the structure and antimycobacterial activity was calculated. Antimycobacterial activity increased with an increase in lipophilicity. The N-(2-pyridylmethyl)salicylamide derivatives were more active than the derivatives of isomeric N-(3-pyridylmethyl)salicylamides. The geometry of compounds was calculated and the calculation was verified by measuring the length of the hydrogen bond between hydroxyl and carbonyl groups on the salicylic moiety.

Rate Limiting Step

ABSTRACTPantothenate kinase (PanK) catalyzes the phosphorylation of pantothenate, the first committed and rate-limiting step toward coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis. In our earlier reports, we had established that the type I isoform encoded by thecoaAgene is an essential pantothenate kinase inMycobacterium tuberculosis, and this vital information was then exploited to screen large libraries for identification of mechanistically different classes of PanK inhibitors. The present report summarizes the synthesis and expansion efforts to understand the structure-activity relationships leading to the optimization of enzyme inhibition along with antimycobacterial activity. Additionally, we report the progression of two distinct classes of inhibitors, the triazoles, which are ATP competitors, and the biaryl acetic acids, with a mixed mode of inhibition. Cocrystallization studies provided evidence of these inhibitors binding to the enzyme. This was further substantiated with the biaryl acids having MIC against the wild-typeM. tuberculosisstrain and the subsequent establishment of a target link with an upshift in MIC in a strain overexpressing PanK. On the other hand, the ATP competitors had cellular activity only in aM. tuberculosisknockdown strain with reduced PanK expression levels. Additionally,in vitroandin vivosurvival kinetic studies performed with aM. tuberculosisPanK (MtPanK) knockdown strain indicated that the target levels have to be significantly reduced to bring in growth inhibition. The dual approaches employed here thus established the poor vulnerability of PanK inM. tuberculosis.
