Description

Application of alpha-lipoic acid as and/or preparing metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicines, and particularly relates to application of alpha-lipoic acid as and/or in preparation of a metal beta-lactamase inhibitor.
Background
Beta-lactam antibiotics become the most common clinical antibiotics due to the characteristics of high efficiency and low toxicity, and play an important role in controlling and treating gram-negative bacterial infection. However, long term unjustified use and even abuse of antibiotics has caused serious resistance to bacteria, which poses a serious threat to public health problems worldwide.
The most prominent resistance mechanism of bacteria is the production of beta-lactamases, which are resistant to antibiotics by hydrolyzing the lactam ring of beta-lactam antibiotics, rendering the antibiotics ineffective. Beta-lactamases can be classified into four classes a-D, based on their amino acid sequence, wherein the active site of class B beta-lactamases comprises 1-2 zinc ions and are therefore also known as metallo beta-lactamases (MBLs).
Based on the amino acid sequence, MBLs are further divided into 3 subclasses, B1, B2 and B3, while class B1 class of New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM-1) has a broader substrate spectrum than the other subclasses of metallo-beta-lactamase, and can hydrolyze almost all beta-lactam antibiotics, including the carbapenem antibiotics known as the "last line of defense". The gene can not only rapidly carry out cross-strain propagation through plasmids, but also is very easy to generate variation due to the action of rearrangement of the plasmids, and the like, and can be integrated on the chromosome of bacteria to ensure that the heredity and the drug resistance of the bacteria are more stable. At present, no effective metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor is available on the market clinically. Therefore, the development of metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitors is imminent.
alpha-Lipoic Acid (LA) is a natural product with biological activity and is a coenzyme for pyruvate dehydrogenase and glycine decarboxylase. The disulfide five-membered ring structure of the alpha-lipoic acid ensures that the alpha-lipoic acid has strong antioxidation, can eliminate active oxygen free radicals in vivo, simultaneously improves the levels of antioxidants such as glutathione and the like in cells, and greatly enhances the antioxidation. The alpha-lipoic acid can also improve the blood sugar control of the diabetic patients and reduce the dependence of the patients on insulin and hypoglycemic drugs; protecting nervous tissues of patients with diabetes, and helping to treat peripheral neuropathy; it also has positive effects on other chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, and nephropathy of liver and kidney. In recent years, alpha-lipoic acid has received high attention from the biological world at home and abroad because of playing an important role in the treatment of various diseases, but at present, no report on the aspect of the alpha-lipoic acid as a metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor is found.

If the FICI is less than or equal to 0.5, the two medicines are considered to have synergistic action, if the FICI is more than 0.5 and less than or equal to 4, the two medicines are considered to have weak synergistic action or no related action, and if the FICI is more than or equal to 4, the two medicines are considered to have antagonistic action. The smaller the FICI, the stronger the drug synergy.

(4) Each set of experiments was set up with three parallel controls: taking Escherichia coli ATCC25922 as a quality control standard, taking captopril as a positive control, and simultaneously arranging a sterile hole and a drug-free hole; the 96-well plate was incubated in a 37 ℃ incubator for 24 hours, and the results were observed and MIC values were recorded.
3. Evaluation of effect of alpha-lipoic acid and meropenem in combination on inhibiting NDM-1-type drug-resistant bacteria
(1) Inoculating a strain (E.coli BL21(DE3)/pET28a-NDM-1 strain) preserved at ultralow temperature into a sterile LB solid culture medium under the aseptic operating condition, placing the strain in a constant temperature incubator at 37 ℃ for overnight culture, picking a single colony, transferring the single colony into 3mL of LB liquid culture medium (containing 50mg/mL of kanamycin), and culturing the single colony in the constant temperature incubator at 37 ℃ until the logarithmic growth phase to obtain a bacterial suspension; adjusting the concentration of the bacterial liquid to 0.5 McLeod concentration by a McLeod turbidimeter, diluting the LB liquid culture medium by 100 times, and obtaining the bacterial number of about 1 × 106CFU/mL。
(2) Adding 100 mu L of LB liquid culture medium into the 2 nd to 12 th rows of the 96-well plate, adding 100 mu L of meropenem solution (256 mu g/mL) or inhibitor (alpha-lipoic acid, 256 mu g/mL) into the 1 st row, sucking 100 mu L of the liquid medicine in the 2 nd row after fully mixing the liquid medicine, adding the liquid medicine into the 3 rd row, mixing the liquid medicine again, and sequentially diluting the liquid medicine by the multiple dilution method to obtain the medicine concentration of 0.0625 to 128 mu g/mL; the MIC of NDM-1 type drug-resistant bacteria with meropenem or alpha-lipoic acid alone was determined by adding 100. mu.L of diluted bacterial solution to each well, and each experiment was repeated three times.

(4) Each set of experiments was set up with three parallel controls: taking Escherichia coli ATCC25922 as a quality control standard, taking captopril as a positive control, and simultaneously arranging a sterile hole and a drug-free hole; the 96-well plate was incubated in a 37 ℃ incubator for 24 hours, and the results were observed and MIC values were recorded.
The results of the antibacterial activity of meropenem in combination with alpha-lipoic acid against drug-resistant bacteria expressing NDM-1, VIM-2 or IMP-1 are shown in Table 3: the inhibitor (alpha-lipoic acid, captopril) can improve the antibacterial activity of meropenem: when the concentration of the inhibitor is 128 mug/mL, the alpha-lipoic acid and the meropenem are used together, the bacteriostatic effect of the meropenem on various MBLs drug-resistant bacteria can be improved, and compared with the single use of the meropenem, the combined use can effectively reduce the MIC value of the meropenem on the drug-resistant strains, the MIC value can be reduced by 8 times to the maximum, and the effect is better than that of captopril.
The synergistic antimicrobial index of alpha-lipoic acid or captopril in combination with meropenem against MBLs-expressing resistant bacteria is shown in Table 4: the FICI of the alpha-lipoic acid and the Meropenem used together for the drug-resistant bacteria expressing the MBLs is less than or equal to 0.5, which shows that the alpha-lipoic acid and the Meropenem have good synergistic effect; the FICI of the captopril and the meropenem which are combined to the drug-resistant bacteria expressing MBLs is larger than that of alpha-lipoic acid, which shows that the synergistic effect of the captopril and the meropenem is not as good as that of the alpha-lipoic acid and the meropenem.
The above results show that: when the alpha-lipoic acid is combined with meropenem, the alpha-lipoic acid has effective synergistic antibacterial activity on various drug-resistant bacteria expressing metallo-beta-lactamase, which shows that the alpha-lipoic acid can be used as an MBLs inhibitor, can reverse the drug resistance of carbapenem drug-resistant bacteria, effectively protects meropenem from being hydrolyzed by MBLs, improves the antibacterial activity of the meropenem on the drug-resistant bacteria producing the MBLs, and further maintains the sensitivity to the meropenem. Therefore, the alpha-lipoic acid can be used as a metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor and a beta-lactam antibiotic to prepare a composite preparation.
