Description

Application of methimazole in preparation of metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicines, and particularly relates to application of methimazole in serving as and/or preparing a metal beta-lactamase inhibitor.
Background
Beta-lactam antibiotics are the most commonly used antibiotics in clinic due to the characteristics of high efficiency and low toxicity, and play a very 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 primary resistance mechanism of bacteria is the production of beta-lactamase enzymes, which hydrolyze the lactam ring of beta-lactam antibiotics to render them ineffective, thereby producing resistance to the antibiotics. 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 contains 1-2 zinc ions and are therefore also known as metallo beta-lactamases (MBLs).
Based on the amino acid sequence and the binding pattern of zinc ions, MBLs are further divided into 3 subclasses, B1, B2 and B3, while metallo-beta-lactamases of class B1 have a broader substrate spectrum than other subclasses of metallo-beta-lactamases and hydrolyze almost all beta-lactam antibiotics, including 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. Currently, no effective metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitor is on the market clinically. Therefore, the development of metallo-beta-lactamase inhibitors is imminent.
Methimazole (MMI), also known as tazobactam, is a thiourea antithyroid agent. Because of the advantages of long half-life period, relatively low incidence rate of liver damage, wide application range, convenient taking, low price and the like, the medicine is clinically used as a first-line medicine for treating hyperthyroidism, and the methimazole is still clinically used as a first-choice medicine for treating hyperthyroidism until now. At present, the report of methimazole as a metallo beta-lactamase inhibitor is not available.

Example 2 evaluation of the Effect of Methioimidazole in combination with Meropenem in inhibiting the production of MBLs drug-resistant bacteria
The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the combination of methimazole and meropenem on MBLs drug-resistant strains is determined by adopting a trace broth dilution method. The strains producing MBLs used in the experiment are the genetically engineered bacteria E.coli BL21 (DE 3)/pET 28a-IMP-7, E.coli BL21 (DE 3)/pET 28a-VIM-2 and E.coli BL21 (DE 3)/pET 28a-NDM-1 purchased from Shanghai Biotechnology Ltd.
FICI is used to judge the interaction of two drugs when used in combination, and is defined according to the following equation FICI = FIC A +FIC B =C A /MIC A +C B /MIC B Wherein MIC A And MIC B MIC values for Compounds A and B, respectively, alone, and C A And C B Is the drug concentration of compound a and B in the effective combination. 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 synergy of the drug.

3. Evaluation of effect of combination of methimazole and meropenem on inhibiting production of NDM-1 type drug-resistant bacteria
(1) Inoculating a strain (E.coli BL21 (DE 3)/pET 28a-NDM-1 strain) preserved at ultralow temperature into a sterile LB solid culture medium under the aseptic operation condition, putting the strain into a constant-temperature incubator at 37 ℃ for overnight culture, selecting 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 × 10 6 CFU/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 (methimazole, 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 uniformly, adding the liquid medicine into the 3 rd row, mixing uniformly again, sequentially diluting the liquid medicine by the multiple dilution method to obtain the medicine with the concentration of 0.0625-128 mu g/mL; 100 μ L of diluted bacterial solution was added to each well, and the MIC of NDM-1-type MBLs drug-resistant bacteria was determined using Meropenem or methimazole alone, three wells per concentration.
(3) Jointly diluting the liquid medicine on a 96-well plate according to the transverse direction and the longitudinal direction, and horizontally diluting the liquid medicine by the gradient of meropenem, wherein the method is the same as the step 2, but the volumes of the added LB liquid culture medium and the meropenem are both 50 mu L (the final concentration of the meropenem is 0.0625-128 mu g/mL), and 50 mu L of inhibitors (methimazole) with different concentrations, which are diluted in a multiple ratio in advance, are longitudinally added, and the final concentration is 2-128 mu g/mL; 100 mu L of diluted bacteria solution is added into each hole, so as to determine the MIC of the meropenem and the methimazole inhibitor (methimazole) which are combined to produce NDM-1 type MBLs drug-resistant bacteria, and three multiple holes are arranged at each concentration.
(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 methimazole against bacteria expressing NDM-1, VIM-2 or IMP-1 resistance are shown in Table 2: the inhibitor (methimazole, captopril) can improve the antibacterial activity of meropenem: when the concentration of the inhibitor is 128 mu g/mL, the combined use of the inhibitor and meropenem can improve the bacteriostatic effect of the meropenem on various MBLs drug-resistant bacteria, and compared with the single use of the meropenem, the combined use of the inhibitor can effectively reduce the MIC value of the meropenem on the drug-resistant strains, can reduce 8 times to the maximum, and has better effect than captopril.
The FICI values for MBLs-expressing drug-resistant bacteria in combination with methimazole or captopril are shown in Table 3: the FICI value of the methimazole and the Meropenem used together for the drug-resistant bacteria expressing MBLs is less than or equal to 0.5, which shows that the methimazole and the Meropenem have good synergistic effect; the FICI value of the captopril and the meropenem which are used together for the MBLs-expressing drug-resistant bacteria is larger than that of methimazole, and the synergistic effect of the captopril and the meropenem is not as good as that of the methimazole and the meropenem.
The above results show that: when the composition is used with meropenem, the methimazole has effective synergistic antibacterial activity on various drug-resistant bacteria expressing metallo-beta-lactamase, which indicates that the methimazole can be used as an MBLs inhibitor, can reverse the drug resistance of carbapenem drug-resistant bacteria, effectively protects the meropenem from being hydrolyzed by MBLs, and improves the antibacterial activity of the meropenem on the MBLs drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, the methimazole can be used as a metallo beta-lactamase inhibitor to be prepared into a composite preparation with beta-lactam antibiotics.
