Definitions

  • the invention is in the field of molecular pharmacology and microbiology of bacteriostatic and bacteriocidal antibiotics and relates to conjugated antibiotics.
  • the invention aims to abolish the resistance of gram-negative bacteria to hydrophobic antibiotics.
  • Bacterial resistance is a common difficulty in combating bacterial infections caused by gram-negative germs. It is due to the special structure of the bacterial membrane, which acts as an impermeable barrier to these therapeutic agents.
  • Polymyxin B a well-known polypeptide antibiotic, has the property of binding to the bacterial membrane and making it partially permeable through structural changes in the molecular order (disorganization).
  • Vaara and Vaara (Nature 303, 526 (1983)) showed that a derivative of polymyxin B, which no longer contained the fatty acid residue and the terminal diaminobutyric acid, was no longer toxic to eukaryotic cells, but was able to do so Resistance of gram-negative bacteria for various antibiotics, among others Erythromycin, clindamycin, rifampicin, fusidic acid, novobiocin and cloxacillin to a large extent if used together with any of these substances.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to produce preparations with increased bacteriostatic activity which do not have these disadvantages.
  • This goal is achieved by the synthesis of conjugates, each containing a polymyxin B derivative as the membrane-permeabilizing part and a hydrophobic antibiotic as the antibiotic part.
  • the invention is based on the idea that combining these two active substances in the same molecule will reduce the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the individual active substance.
  • a further improvement is achieved by the chemical incorporation of a connecting molecule (spacer, spacer molecule) between the two active substances, which are reactants. This is intended to obtain additional degrees of freedom, namely by varying the spacer length and spacer structure, the interaction with the cell membrane and the release of the antibiotic can be modulated within the cell.
  • an antibiotic with a polymyxin derivative that is chemically conjugated is then described, with both components not losing their characteristic effect.
  • a suitable choice of the spacer for example the spacer length and spacer sequence in the case of a peptide-like spacer, can further increase their effect.
  • the membrane permeabilizing agent is in any case a derivative of polymyxin B, while the antibiotic can vary.
  • Antibiotic and polymyxin derivative can be chemically bound either directly or via a spacer.
  • the chemically specific synthesis of the conjugates requires a strategy that enables the coupling of the antibiotic to a single free amino group of the polymyxin.
  • this amino function should preferably be chosen in the linear chain (tail) of the polymyxin B, in order in this way to free the cyclic part of the molecule (head) for the Recognize the bacterial membrane preserve.
  • This procedure is explained using a multi-stage process in FIG. 1 using the example of rifamycin B (denoted by ROH).
  • the five free amino functions of polymyxin B are with the tert. Butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) group by treatment with di-tert. Butyld ica rbonat protected at alkaline pH, which creates Penta-Boc-Polymyxin B (I). The fatty acid residue is then split off by enzymatic hydrolysis (II).
  • the penta-boc-polymyxin B is split in a water / 1,4-butanediol mixture into two characterized fragments: first, the linear polymyxin B-tripeptide (tail) substituted with the fatty acid and with two Boc groups, and second, the cyclic polymyxin B-heptapeptide (head) substituted with three Boc groups.
  • the cyclic heptapeptide contains a single free amino function to which it can be chemically specifically substituted, making it the key link in the general coupling strategy.
  • rifamycin B remains intact under these conditions according to the control test.
  • the resulting product can then be coupled to tri-boc polymyxin heptapeptide (the key compound) via dicyclohexylcarbodiimide activation again (V).
  • the compound B (cf. Fig. 1 and 2) is formed by simple acid treatment (VI).

Abstract

La présente invention concerne la résistance connue des bactéries gram-négatives vis-à-vis des antibiotiques hydrophobes. Elle fait appel à la propriété de perméabilisation membranaire de la partie heptapeptidique cyclique de la polymyxine B qui agit sans être toxique. Elle démontre, par exemple à partir de la rifamycine B, que des conjugués d'antibiotiques hydrophobes avec la partie heptapeptidique cyclique de la polymyxine B possèdent un effet bactériostatique et que cet effet peut être accru si on incorpore entre les deux substances associées une molécule d'espacement appropriée. Est également décrite une stratégie de synthèse pour fabriquer ces conjugués de manière chimiquement spécifique.
