Synthesis and biological evaluation of new N-acyl-homoserine-lactone analogues, based on triazole and tetrazole scaffolds, acting as LuxR-dependent quorum sensing modulators
摘要:
New analogues of N-acyl-homoserine-lactone (AHL), in which the amide was replaced by a triazole or tetrazole ring, were prepared and tested for their activity as LuxR-dependent QS modulators. Several compounds showed a level of antagonistic or agonistic activity, notably some 1,4-triazolic and 1,5-tetrazolic derivatives, whereas the 2,5-tetrazolic compounds were inactive. In 1,5-tetrazoles, substituted with butyrolactone and an alkyl chain, the activity was reversed, depending on the connection between the lactone and the tetrazole. The C-N connected compounds were agonists whereas the C-C connected ones were antagonists. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The present invention relates to methods for the control of virulence of infectious bacteria by modulating the extra-cellular concentration of bacterial cell signalling molecules. Derivatives of cell signalling molecules are conjugated to suitable carrier proteins and used to isolate high affinity receptors recognising the native signal molecule(s). By binding to signalling molecules, the receptors reduce and maintain extra-cellular concentrations of signal molecules below the threshold level that would otherwise result in certain opportunistic pathogens adopting a virulent form, and can transform virulent organisms to non-virulent states. These receptors have applications for the treatment of individuals with susceptibility to infection, the treatment of patients with existing infections, in disease monitoring and management, and in related applications where the host for infection is an animal or plant.

The present invention relates to methods for the killing of infectious bacteria by modulating the extra-cellular concentration of bacterial cell signalling molecules. This has the effect of inducing rapid cell death (autolysis) in the majority of bacterial cells, and preventing virulence or restoring a benign state in surviving cells. These receptors have applications for the treatment of individuals with susceptibility to infection, the treatment of patients with existing infections, in disease management, and in related applications where the host for infection is an animal or plant. The compositions described herein are particularly relevant to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, for example in the treatment of pulmonary infection in cystic fibrosis patients, and represent a unique bactericidal medication that does not directly target the bacteria.
