04/19/2304/19/23

History

• Salvarsan 606

• Prontosil

• Penicillin

04/19/2304/19/23

Salvarsan 606

• Paul Ehrlich– early 1900’s– syphilis– arsenic + organic compound

• Aniline dyes -

– wasn't able to find the "magic bullet”

04/19/2304/19/23

Prontosil

• 1930's, Gerhard Domagk– Prontosil

• 1935, Jacques and Therese Trefoncel– discovered that the active compound in

Prontosil was Sulfanilamide

• sulfanilamide “ Sulfas”

04/19/2304/19/23

Penicillin

• 1928, Alexander Fleming– antibacterial activity in Penicillium mold

(called it Penicillin)

• 1938, Howard Florey and Ernst Chain– developed Penicillin as an effective antibiotic

04/19/2304/19/23

Antimicrobial Therapy• Antimicrobics

– substances produced by microbes that inhibit other microbes

• Semi-synthetic antibiotics– naturally produced but altered

• Synthetic antibiotics:

– derived from chemicals

04/19/2304/19/23

Ideal Properties of an Antibiotic

• Low toxicity for patient– kills the invading microorganism without damaging the

host– no adverse side reactions– non allergenic

• High toxicity for microbe– bactericidal not bacteriostatic– broad spectrum

• Low risk of other infections

04/19/2304/19/23

More Characteristics

• drug can be administered orally or parenterally (by injection)– Soluble in tissue fluids– absorbed by and dissolved in tissues or body

fluids

• levels of active drug sustained long enough to kill the invading agent

• Long “Shelf” life

04/19/2304/19/23

Still More Characteristics• Low probability of resistance

• Microbial drug resistance develops slowly

• microbicidal rather than microbistatic

• Not inactivated by organic material

• Assists the host in eliminating the infecting microbe

• Not a powerful allergen

04/19/2304/19/23

Sources of AntibioticsMost spore-forming microorganisms

• Fungi

– Penicillium penicillin,

– Cephalosporium griseofulvin

• Bacteria

– Bacillus bacitracin, polymyxin, tyrothricin, colimycin, gramicidin

– Streptomycetes Aminoglycosides, nystatin, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, tetracylcine...

Mode of Action of Antibiotics

04/19/2304/19/23

Mode of Action of Antibiotics• Inhibit Synthesis of Cell Wall

• Damage Cell Membrane

• Inhibit Protein Synthesis

• Inhibit Nucleic acid Synthesis

04/19/2304/19/23

Bacterial Cell Wall

• Peptidoglycan– many layers in gram positives– thin in gram negative

• protects the cell against rupture from hypotonic environments

04/19/2304/19/23

Synthesis of peptidoglycan (1/4)

• Uridine diphosphate (UDP) derivatives of NAM and NAG are synthesized in the cytoplasm

• Amino acids are sequentially added to UDP-NAM to form the pentapeptide chain using ATP as an energy source. The two terminal D-alanines are added as a dipeptide (Cycloserine)

04/19/2304/19/23

• The NAM- pentapeptide is transferred from UDP to a bactoprenol PO4 at the membrane surface. Bactoprenol is a 55-Carbon alcohol that attaches to NAM by a pyrophosphate group and moves peptidoglycan components through the hydrophobic membrane

• UDP-NAG adds NAG to the NAM-pentapeptide to form the peptidoglycan repeat unit

04/19/2304/19/23

• The completed NAM-NAG peptidoglycan repeat unit is transported across the membrane to its outer surface by the bactoprenol pyrophosphate carrier

• The peptidoglycan unit is attached to the growing end.

04/19/2304/19/23

• The bactoprenol carrier returns to the inside of the membrane to collect another NAM-pentapeptide. Bactoprenol pyrophosphate must give up phosphate to connect Bacitracin

• Finally, transpeptidization - interbridges formed

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibit Synthesis of Cell Wall

• penicillin, bacitracin, vancomycin, cephalosporin, carbapenems

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibition of Cell Wall Synthesis• Cycloserine - inhibits peptidoglycan sub-unit

formation

• Vancomycin - inhibits peptidoglycan elongation

• Beta-lactam antibiotics - Penicillins – lactam antibiotics block peptidases required to connect

inter bridges

• Cephalosporins bind to the peptidases that are essential to cross link the glycan molecules.

04/19/2304/19/23

Murray 2.4 & 5.4, p. 10

Inhibition of cell wall synthesis

• Cycloserine - inhibits the addition of the two terminal D-alanines

• Bacitracin - inhibits the transport of the subunits to their position in the cell wall

• Vancomycin - inhibits the elongation of the peptidoglycan to form connecting units

Polymyxin action

• Polymyxin B binds to the cell membrane to disrupts its structural and permeability properties

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibit Protein Synthesis• Binds to 50S ribosomal subunit

– prevents peptide chain elongation• clindamycin, chlorampenicol, erythromycin

– block rRNA(23S)• lincomycin, macrolides

• Binds to 30S ribosomal subunit– misreading of mRNA

• aminoglycosides- genetamcin– Blocks binding of tRNA-AA to 30S

• tetraclyclines

Misreading mRNA

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibit Nucleic acid Synthesis

Quinolones – Ciprofloxacin and other quinolones

• Inhibits DNA gyrase

• Blocks DNA replication

• Inhibits mitochondrial DNA– conc in tissues too low for toxicity

• Urinary and intestinal infections

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibition of DNA Replication

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibition of Transcription

04/19/2304/19/23

Antimetabolites• Sulfonamides• Donald D. Woods• Sulfanilamide blocks folic acid

– folic acid is essential to the synthesis of DNA and RNA

– Para amino benzoic acid (PABA) not incorporated into folic acid

• Reversible inhibition– High [PABA] competitively inhibit sulfanilamide

04/19/2304/19/23

Inhibited metabolites,Synthesis

04/19/2304/19/23

Drug Resistance

• synthesis of enzymes that inactivate the drug

• decrease in cell permeability and uptake of the drug

• change in the number or affinity of drug receptor sites

• modification of an essential metabolic pathway

04/19/2304/19/23

Development of Drug Resistance

• intrinsic– chromosomal mutations - low probability

• acquired– transfer of extra chromosomal DNA from a

resistant species to a sensitive one– Plasmids– Transposons

04/19/2304/19/23

Plasmids

– resistance factors or R factors transfered by conjugation, transformation or transduction

04/19/2304/19/23

Transposons

– sequences that can move from – plasmid >> chromosome – plasmid>> plasmid

04/19/2304/19/23

Clinical Trials• patient - has a diagnosed infection - two possibilities:

– a) the new drug is the drug of choice by testing– b) the patient has not responded to other drugs and the new drug

is testing well in the lab

• samples of blood etc. taken to determine all the possible parameters:– level of antimicrobial and presence of agent– cultures of infecting agent taken 2 times per day

• disappearance of the bacteria and patient recovery conclude a successful trial

04/19/2304/19/23

Reference: lab manual p. 270

Minimum Inhibitory Concentration• 1. test for antimicrobial activity

• 2. dilute antibiotic (pictures of tubes)

• 3. range selected obtained from therapeutic index

• 4. add to medium

• 5. add pure culture of isolated bacteria

• 6. incubate - tubes that are clear after 16 hours incubation at 35° C are subcultured– 0.1 ml removed and plated on suitably rich medium -

usually the agar version of the liquid growth medium

04/19/2304/19/23

Reference: lab manual p. 270

Kirby-Bauer Plate Sensitivity• disks impregnated with various concentrations of

appropriate antibiotics are placed aseptically on innoculated plates

• measurement of drug concentrations in the blood preclinical trials

• subjects receive varying dose levels and intervals of dosage

• pretrials usually determine the route of entry - oral or parenteral (injected subcutaneously, intramuscularly, etc.)

• pretrials determine the carrier substance

04/19/2304/19/23

Subjects Tested for Antimicrobial Levels

• blood, lymph, urine, feces tested for effective levels depending on disease

• also of concern is rapid metabolism (catabolism) of the drug and also rapid excretion

04/19/2304/19/23

Disk Diffusion Tests

• diffusion of antibiotic from disk controlled by agar concentration

• Zone of Inhibition– controlled by diffusion rate– level of sensitivity

• each antibiotic is unique
