Unlike major histocompatibility proteins, which bind peptides, CD1 proteins display lipid antigens to T cells. Here, we report that CD1a presents a family of previously unknown lipopeptides from Mycobacterium tuberculosis , named didehydroxymycobactins because their structural relation mycobactin siderophores. cell activation was mediated by the αβ receptors and specific for structure acyl peptidic components these antigens. These studies identify means intracellular pathogen detection as...
Previous studies have suggested that bipolar patients are supersensitive to light suppression of melatonin and this may be a trait marker for genetic vulnerability. The present study was an attempt replicate extend observation. Propranolol hydrochloride effects were compared with because the documented influence beta-adrenergic receptors on production. Nighttime levels corticotropin cortisol also examined as potential vulnerability markers.Melatonin in euthymic (n= 29) tested before after...

A set of nine 2,7-dimethylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxamides and one 2,6-dimethylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide were synthesized. The compounds evaluated for their in vitro antituberculosis activity versus replicating, nonreplicating, multi- extensive drug resistant Mtb strains. MIC90 values seven these agents ≤1 μM against the various tuberculosis strains tested. representative compound this class (1) was screened nontubercular as well other nonmycobacteria organisms demonstrated...
Tuberculosis is a serious global health problem caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. There an urgent need for discovery and development of new treatments, but this can only be accomplished through rapid reproducible M. tuberculosis assays designed to identify potent inhibitors. We developed automated 96-well assay utilizing recombinant strain expressing far-red fluorescent reporter determine activity novel compounds; allowed us measure growth monitoring both optical density...
Although the antimalarial agent artemisinin itself is not active against tuberculosis, conjugation to a mycobacterial-specific siderophore (microbial iron chelator) analogue induces significant and selective antituberculosis activity, including activity multi- extensively drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The conjugate also retains potent activity. Physicochemical whole-cell studies indicated that ferric-to-ferrous reduction complex initiates expected bactericidal...

An artificial tris-catecolate siderophore with a tripodal backbone and its conjugates ampicillin amoxicillin were synthesized. Both exhibited significantly enhanced in vitro antibacterial activities against Gram-negative species compared to the parent drugs, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa . The appeared be assimilated by an induced bacterial iron transport process as their inversely related concentration. easily synthesized has great potential for future development of various drug target...
Siderophores are multidentate iron(III) chelators used by bacteria for iron assimilation. Sideromycins, also called siderophore-antibiotic conjugates, a unique subset of siderophores that enter bacterial cells via siderophore uptake pathways and deliver the toxic antibiotic in "Trojan horse" fashion. Sideromycins represent novel delivery technology with untapped potential developing sophisticated microbe-selective antibacterial agents limit emergence resistance. The chemical synthesis series...
In order to address the dire need for new antibiotics treat specific strains of drug resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections, a mixed ligand analog natural Acinetobacter baumannii selective siderophore, fimsbactin, was coupled daptomycin, Gram-positive only antibiotic. The resulting conjugate 11 has potent activity against multidrug A. both in vitro and vivo. study also indicates that conjugation siderophores "drugs" are much larger than siderophore (iron transport agent) itself...
Many antibiotics lack activity against Gram-negative bacteria because they cannot permeate the outer membrane or suffer from efflux and, in case of β-lactams, are degraded by β-lactamases. Herein, we describe synthesis and studies a dual drug conjugate (1) siderophore linked to cephalosporin with an attached oxazolidinone. The component 1 is rapidly hydrolyzed purified ADC-1 β-lactamase release Conjugate active clinical isolates Acinetobacter baumannii as well strains producing large amounts...
