Effective anti-infective therapies are required to offset the rise in antibiotic resistance. A novel vancomycin-innate defense regulator conjugate (V-IDR1018) was constructed with multimodal functionality, including bacterial killing, biofilm eradication, and immune modulation. The conjugate killed bacteria within 30 min, exhibited potent activity against persister cells, and showed no susceptibility to antimicrobial resistance in tissue culture assays. Additionally, it stimulated the release of chemokine MCP-1 and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and suppressed pro-inflammatory IL-1β from lipopolysaccharide-stimulated white blood cells. The conjugate demonstrated ∼90% eradication efficacy when assessed against the MRSA biofilm formed on an organoid human skin equivalent. Similarly, when evaluated in a murine, high-density skin abscess infection model using MRSA or , the conjugate decreased dermonecrosis and reduced bacterial load. The exceptional and efficacy of the conjugate, in addition to its safety profile, makes it a valuable candidate to treat complex infectious diseases.
需要有效的抗感染疗法来对抗抗生素耐药性的上升。一种新型的万古霉素固有防御调节剂偶联物(V-IDR1018)具有多种功能,包括杀菌、生物膜清除和免疫调节。该偶联物在 30 分钟内杀死细菌,对持久细胞具有强大的活性,并且在组织培养试验中对抗菌药物耐药性没有易感性。此外,它刺激趋化因子 MCP-1 和抗炎细胞因子 IL-10 的释放,并抑制脂多糖刺激的白细胞中促炎细胞因子 IL-1β的释放。该偶联物在评估其对类器官人皮肤等效物上形成的 MRSA 生物膜的清除效果时,表现出约 90%的清除功效。同样,当在使用 MRSA 或 的鼠、高密度皮肤脓肿感染模型中进行评估时,该偶联物减少了皮肤坏死并降低了细菌负荷。该偶联物的出色的 和 功效,加上其安全性,使其成为治疗复杂感染性疾病的有价值的候选药物。
