Optimization of Acetazolamide-Based Scaffold as Potent Inhibitors of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus
摘要:
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are the second leading cause of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) attributed to a drug-resistant bacterium in the United States, and resistance to the frontline treatments is well documented. To combat VRE, we have repurposed the FDA-approved carbonic anhydrase drug acetazolamide to design potent antienterococcal agents. Through structure-activity relationship optimization we have arrived at two leads possessing improved potency against clinical VRE strains from MIC = 2 mu g/mL (acetazolamide) to MIC = 0.007 mu g/mL (22) and 1 mu g/mL (26). Physicochemical properties were modified to design leads that have either high oral bioavailability to treat systemic infections or low intestinal permeability to treat VRE infections in the gastrointestinal tract. Our data suggest the intracellular targets for the molecules are putative alpha-carbonic and gamma-carbonic anhydrases, and homology modeling and molecular dynamics simulations were performed. Together, this study presents potential anti-VRE therapeutic options to provide alternatives for problematic VRE infections.

This study provides a structure–activity relationship study of a series of lipophilic carbonicanhydrase (CA) inhibitors with an acetazolamide backbone. The inhibitors were tested against the tumor-expressed CA isozyme IX (CA IX), and the cytosolic CA I, CA II, and membrane-bound CA IV. The study identified several low nanomolar potentinhibitors against CA IX, with lipophilicities spanning two log
