Antibiotic resistant bacterial strains (e.g. MRSA, VRE, MDR-TB and so on) pose a significant threat to public health1 and complete drug resistance could prove to be more lethal than viral pandemics like Covid-19.2 Targeted antibacterial agents may improve antibiotic efficacy compared to non-targeted agents by widening their therapeutic window. While a number of bacterial recognition motifs exist (e.g. antibodies, peptides, glycodendrimers, and cationic dendrimers), zinc(II)-bisdipicolylamine (Zn2BDPA) complexes are noteworthy as broad-spectrum bacterial targeting groups that selectively bind to negatively charged phosphate amphiphiles displayed on the outer surfaces of bacterial cell membranes and walls (Figure 1, Panel A).3a-dIn this study we have prepared and investigated the antibacterial photodynamic inactivation (PDI) efficacy of Zn2BDPA bearing porphyrin derivative 1a (Figure 1, Panel B). 1a was synthesized from the corresponding aminoporphyrin derivative and a BDPA-ligand bearing carboxylic acid. The identity of 1a was confirmed through structural (NMR, HRMS) and photophysical (UV-Vis, FL) characterization. In a previous study we determined that upon irradiation with visible light ( > 400 nm) the iodo derivative 1b was capable of eradicating 99.99% of E. coli cells (5x106 CFU/ml) at 2.5 M concentration. In this study we have observed that trifluoromethyl derivative 1a eradicated 99.99% of E. coli cells (5x106 CFU/ml) at 0.25 M concentration upon irradiation with visible light. We have also discovered that it is possible to integrate 1a in a POPC/cholesterol host membrane. A liposomal formulation of 1a was thus prepared and characterized through DLS and zeta potential measurements. Liposomal 1a was found to be a highly efficient PDI agent as well, eradicating 99.99% of E. coli cells (5x106 CFU/ml) at 0.125 M effective porphyrin derivative concentration upon irradiation with visible light.Acknowledgement: We gratefully acknowledge partial support for this work from TÜBİTAK (215Z052, 114C041), Istanbul University (53435, 45772), and Middle East Technical University (2667).References1) www.ft.com/content/520b0300-1717-4f66-b792-f2f7da7112a3 (accessed 15.03.2021)2) news-decoder.com/without-antibiotics-more-could-die-than-from-covid-19/ (accessed 15.03.2021)3) a.

SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL MATERIALS FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE POLYMERIC MEMBRANE APPLICATIONS TUL MUNNA, SADIA; Akdağ, Akın; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2021-9-10) The polymeric membranes for antimicrobial applications are in high demand nowadays, since the bacteria had developed the resistance against the antibiotics. The membrane technology could become an efficient tool to cope with the antibiotic resistant bacteria which are becoming an unevitable problem on the health and pocket of a common man. To address this issue, the current research is carried out to synthesize polymer with antibacterial properties. Norbornene and oxonorborne monomers with special modificat...
Development and analysis of controlled release polymeric rods containing vancomycin Tağıt, Oya; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Department of Biotechnology (2005) Antibiotic use is a vital method for the treatment of most diseases involving bacterial infections. Unfortunately, in certain cases these agents are not effective in treatments against diseases for either some limitation in antibiotic usage because of the side effects or some distribution problems caused by physiological or pathological barriers in the body. Such problems are thought to be minimized by development of controlled release systems which involve implantation of antibiotic loaded polymeric system...
Studies of enzymes that cause resistance to aminoglycosides antibiotics. Serpersu, Engin H; Özen, Can; Wright, Edward (2008-01-01) Aminoglycoside antibiotics are highly potent, wide-spectrum bactericidals (1, 2). Bacterial resistance to aminoglycosides, however, is a major problem in the clinical use of aminoglycosides. Enzymatic modification of aminoglycosides is the most frequent resistance mode among several resistance mechanisms employed by resistant pathogens (1,3). Three families of aminoglycoside modifying enzymes, O-phosphotransferases, N-acetyltransferases, and N-nucleotidyltransferases, are known to have more than 50 enzymes ...
Extended interaction networks with HCV protease NS3-4A substrates explain the lack of adaptive capability against protease inhibitors Dultz, Georg; Shimakami, Tetsuro; Schneider, Markus; Murai, Kazuhisa; Yamane, Daisuke; Marıon, Antoıne; Zeitler, Tobias M.; Stross, Claudia; Grimm, Christian; Richter, Rebecca M.; Baeumer, Katrin; Yi, MinKyung; Biondi, Ricardo M.; Zeuzem, Stefan; Tampe, Robert; Antes, Iris; Lange, Christian M.; Welsch, Christoph (2020-10-01) Inhibitors against the NS3-4A protease of hepatitis C virus (HCV) have proven to be useful drugs in the treatment of HCV infection. Although variants have been identified with mutations that confer resistance to these inhibitors, the mutations do not restore replicative fitness and no secondary mutations that rescue fitness have been found. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying the lack of fitness compensation, we screened known resistance mutations in infectious HCV cell culture with dif...
EVALUATION OF ANTIBACTERIAL AND CARBONIC ANHYDRASE INHIBITORY POTENTIAL OF METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF &ITNARDOSTACHYS JATAMANSI&IT (D. DON) DC RHIZOMES Rehman, Tayyeba; Ahmad, Saeed; Abbasi, Waheed Mumtaz; Ahmad, Ashfaq; Bilal, Muhammad; Zaman, Muhammad Mohsin; Ghauri, Aymen Owais; Arshad, Adeel; Akhtar, Khalid (2017-09-01) Many antimicrobial drugs are going to become resistant to different pathogens, so the discovery of new antimicrobial products is an important public health concern. Nardostachys jatamansi (D. Don) DC (Valerianaceae) is an important traditional herbal medicine used as tranquillizer. CNS sedative. antiepilepsy, cardiotonic. diuretic, heptatonic, analgesic and in boils, itch and eye diseases. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are the potential source of treatment in case of glaucoma, hypertension and epilepsy and ...
