Zidebactam and WCK 5153 are novel β-lactam enhancers that are bicyclo-acyl hydrazides (BCH), derivatives of the diazabicyclooctane (DBO) scaffold, targeted for the treatment of serious infections caused by highly drug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens. In this study, we determined the penicillin-binding protein (PBP) inhibition profiles and the antimicrobial activities of zidebactam and WCK 5153 against , including multidrug-resistant (MDR) metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing high-risk clones. MIC determinations and time-kill assays were conducted for zidebactam, WCK 5153, and antipseudomonal β-lactams using wild-type PAO1, MexAB-OprM-hyperproducing (), porin-deficient (), and AmpC-hyperproducing () derivatives of PAO1, and MBL-expressing clinical strains ST175 () and ST111 (). Furthermore, steady-state kinetics was used to assess the inhibitory potential of these compounds against the purified VIM-2 MBL. Zidebactam and WCK 5153 showed specific PBP2 inhibition and did not inhibit VIM-2 (apparent [] > 100 μM). MICs for zidebactam and WCK 5153 ranged from 2 to 32 μg/ml (amdinocillin MICs > 32 μg/ml). Time-kill assays revealed bactericidal activity of zidebactam and WCK 5153. LIVE-DEAD staining further supported the bactericidal activity of both compounds, showing spheroplast formation. Fixed concentrations (4 or 8 μg/ml) of zidebactam and WCK 5153 restored susceptibility to all of the tested β-lactams for each of the mutant strains. Likewise, antipseudomonal β-lactams (CLSI breakpoints), in combination with 4 or 8 μg/ml of zidebactam or WCK 5153, resulted in enhanced killing. Certain combinations determined full bacterial eradication, even with MDR MBL-producing high-risk clones. β-Lactam-WCK enhancer combinations represent a promising β-lactam "enhancer-based" approach to treat MDR infections, bypassing the need for MBL inhibition.
齐德巴坦和WCK 5153是新型β-内酰胺增强剂,属于双环酰基肼(BCH),是二氮杂双环辛烷(DBO)支架的衍生物,旨在治疗由高度耐药革兰氏阴性病原体引起的严重感染。在本研究中,我们测定了齐德巴坦和WCK 5153对包括产多药耐药(MDR)金属β-内酰胺酶(MBL)的高风险克隆在内的多种菌株的青霉素结合蛋白(PBP)抑制谱和抗菌活性。使用野生型PAO1、MexAB-OprM高表达()、孔蛋白缺陷()和AmpC高表达()的PAO1衍生物以及表达MBL的临床菌株ST175()和ST111(),对齐德巴坦、WCK 5153和抗假单胞菌β-内酰胺进行了最低抑菌浓度(MIC)测定和时间杀菌试验。此外,采用稳态动力学评估了这些化合物对纯化的VIM-2 MBL的抑制潜力。齐德巴坦和WCK 5153表现出对PBP2的特异性抑制,且不抑制VIM-2(表观[]>100μM)。齐德巴坦和WCK 5153的MIC范围为2至32μg/ml(氨曲南MIC>32μg/ml)。时间杀菌试验显示齐德巴坦和WCK 5153具有杀菌活性。活死染色进一步支持了这两种化合物的杀菌活性,显示出原生质球形成。固定浓度(4或8μg/ml)的齐德巴坦和WCK 5153恢复了每种突变菌株对所有测试β-内酰胺的敏感性。同样,抗假单胞菌β-内酰胺(CLSI断点)与4或8μg/ml的齐德巴坦或WCK 5153联合使用,增强了杀菌效果。某些组合甚至能完全根除细菌,即使是对于产MDR MBL的高风险克隆。β-内酰胺-WCK增强剂组合代表了一种有前景的基于β-内酰胺“增强剂”的方法来治疗MDR感染,无需抑制MBL。
