Differential Trypanocidal Activity of Novel Macrolide Antibiotics; Correlation to Genetic Lineage
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here we report the systematic study of the anti-trypanocidal activity of some new products derived from S. diastatus on 14 different T. cruzi strains spanning the six genetic lineages of T. cruzi. As the traditional growth inhibition curves giving similar IC(50) showed great differences on antibiotic and lineage tested, we decided to preserve the wealth of information derived from each inhibition curve and used an algorithm related to potency of the drugs, combined in a matrix data set used to generate a cluster tree. The cluster thus generated based just on drug susceptibility data closely resembles the phylogenies of the lineages derived from genetic data and provides a novel approach to correlate genetic data with phenotypes related to pathogenesis of Chagas disease. Furthermore we provide clues on the drugs mechanism of action.

Potentiation of antiviral activity of acyclovir by polyene macrolide antibiotics.
The potentiation of the antiviral activity of acyclovir [9-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]guanine] by polyene macrolide antibiotics has been studied as a function of the macrolide structure. The 12 polyenes chosen for this study represented the major structural groups of these antibiotics and induced in mammalian cells repairable membrane alterations or irreversible cell damage. The potentiating acti...

properties ofpolyene macrolides wehave established the structure-activity relationship among the derivatives of amphotericin B, the polyene antibiotic most commonly used in clinical practice11}. It has been shown in these studies that the improvement of selective toxicity is related to the absence of a free carboxyl group in the modified antibiotic molecule. Wehave also demonstrated that water ...
متن کاملSynthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of catechol-spiramycin conjugates.
The first synthesis of siderophore conjugates of two macrolide antibiotics, spiramycin 1 and neospiramycin 2, which are unable to penetrate the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria are described. These novel conjugates were prepared by regioselective acylation of a hydroxyl function of 1 and 2 with a dihydroxybenzoic Fe(III) complexing ligand linked via a carboxyl group containing spacer to...

Five novel 3-hydroxyl derivatives of sixteen-membered macrolide possessing 4-O-acyl-alpha-L-cladinose as a neutral sugar moiety were synthesized by using a combination of structurally stable silyl acetal protection and selective hydrogenolysis of a 3"-methylthiomethyl ether to a 3"-OMe group. Several derivatives having n-butyryl, i-butyryl and n-valeryl substituent at the 4"-OH group exhibited ...
