Definitions
- the present invention relates to a compound for use in preventing and / or treating infections with pathogenic microorganisms.
- the present invention relates to a compound for use in the prevention and / or treatment of infections by pathogenic microorganisms of the epithelia of the respiratory and / or intestinal tracts.
- Acute respiratory infections are one of the leading causes of consultations, hospitalizations and deaths worldwide, including the leading cause of death among young children with nearly 2 million deaths per year. Each year, in an attempt to treat these various respiratory infections, the cost to companies is estimated at between 1, 5 and 2 billion euros.
- viruses occupy a prominent place. They are found in most cases of childhood pneumonia and are a predisposing factor for bacterial pneumonia in adults. Among the most representative viruses in terms of frequency and morbidity, influenza viruses type A and B, which are also a recurrent pandemic risk factor, as well as respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV or hVRS), viruses parainfluenza (hPIV) and the human metapneumovirus (hMPV).
- hRSV or hVRS respiratory syncytial virus
- hPIV viruses parainfluenza
- hMPV human metapneumovirus
- influenza viruses With the exception of influenza viruses, there is currently no vaccine or antiviral molecule effective to prevent or treat infections with these different pathogenic respiratory viruses. In addition, in the case of influenza viruses, delays and the variable effectiveness of vaccination, as well as the increasing emergence of antiviral-resistant viruses, are of great concern today.
- hVRS respiratory syncytial virus
- hMPV human metapneumovirus
- hPIV human parainfluenza virus
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-negative bacillus found in the environment and in more than 50% of the respiratory tract in hospitalized patients.
- P. aeruginosa is a ubiquitous microorganism that has the ability to survive under multiple environmental conditions. This microorganism causes not only diseases in plants and animals, but also in humans, causing serious infections in immunocompromised patients with cancer and patients with severe burns or cystic fibrosis.
- Standard antibiotic therapy for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections combines a beta-lactam (ceftazidime, imipenem or meropenem, piperacillin / tazobactam) with aminoside (tobramycin, amikacin) and / or fluoroquinolone.
- beta-lactam ceftazidime, imipenem or meropenem, piperacillin / tazobactam
- aminoside tobramycin, amikacin
- fluoroquinolone fluoroquinolone
- Intestinal infections are also an important cause of hospitalization and in some cases of death.
- the most common causes of acute gastroenteritis in immunocompetent adults are noroviruses and rotaviruses, as well as the following species and genera of bacteria: Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus , Bacillus cereus, and Clostridium difficile.
- Type III interferons also known as lambda interferons (1), constitute the first line of antimicrobial defense in the epithelium of the respiratory and intestinal tracts, contributing to the initial inhibition of the spread of pathogens, without, however, triggering inflammatory response (Andreakos et al., 2017). These type III interferons are actually produced very early in response to pathogen activation of host cell sensors, Toll-like receptors or cytoplasmic effectors.
- ISGs Interferon - stimulated genes
- IFITM gene the cell entry of viruses
- OAS gene OASL, IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT13, ISG15
- type III interferon type This early anti-pathogenic response, called “type III interferon type", is particularly prevalent in the initial innate response of the respiratory epithelium to influenza virus infection (Galani et al., 2017).
- Type III interferons have been previously evaluated in clinical trials to treat hepatitis B and C infections, and have demonstrated lower side effects compared to type I interferon therapy (Chan et al., 2016).

- Reconstituted human respiratory epithelia were infected with human parainfluenza virus type 3 (strain C243 ATCC VR-93) at an MOI of 0, 1, and treatment of basolateral medium with 90 ⁇ M diltiazem was started 2 hours post-infection and continued daily for 4 consecutive days.
- the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) which reflects the integrity of the epithelium, was measured once daily from 48 hours post-infection up to 120 hours post-infection.
- Apical infectious viral titers were determined in LLC-MK2 cells from washings taken as early as 48 h post-infection (hpi), and up to 120 hpi, as shown in Figure 5A.
- FIG. 5B shows the results obtained after carrying out the following experiment: at 96 and 120 hpi, the untreated reconstituted human respiratory epithelia (images on the left) and treated with diltiazem (right images) were observed under a microscope.
- the cytopathic effects induced by hPIV-3 were larger and easily visible under the microscope in untreated reconstituted human respiratory epithelia, unlike those treated with diltiazem.
- Figure 5C shows TEER values as a function of post-infection time, measured on reconstituted human respiratory epithelia:
- Figure 5D shows the measured viral titers (in LLC-MK2 (DITC50 / mL) over time (48 to 120 hpi) at the apical surface of diltiazem-treated, diluted, reconstituted human respiratory epithelia.
- infectious viral titres measured at the apical surface of reconstituted human respiratory epithelia peaked at 72 hours post-infection at a value of 10 8 TCID50 / mL) and 96 hours post-infection at a value of 10 7 TCID50 / mL, unlike diltiazem-treated reconstituted human respiratory epithelia, which show significantly lower values at 72 hours post-infection (10 6 TCID50 / mL) and 96 hours post-infection (10 5 TCID50 / mL) . Overall, these results indicate that diltiazem treatment reduces the viral replication of hPIV-3 in the model of infected reconstituted human respiratory epithelium.
- Example 6 Diltiazem treatment significantly reduces the multiplication of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Reconstituted human respiratory epithelia were pretreated 24 hours before infection with 90 ⁇ M diltiazem in basolateral medium or alternatively with 10 ⁇ L of 90 ⁇ M diltiazem at the apical surface, then infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAK strain) at an MOI of 1 and treated again. by diltiazem 2 hours after infection.
