Definitions

  • Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the leading cause of nosocomial infections and chronic lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients with mortality rates ranging from 30-50%' 2 .
  • infections caused by P. aeruginosa are particularly difficult to treat as the organism is both intrinsically resistant and capable of acquiring resistance to most antibiotics 3 .
  • This is in large part the result of the low permeability of its outer membrane which is 12-100 times lower than that of E. coli and is caused by selective porins 4 .
  • the reduced uptake of antibiotic across the outer membrane in P. aeruginosa enables secondary adaptive resistance mechanisms to work more efficiently including efflux due to the intrinsic or induced expression of efflux pumps and antibiotic- modifying enzymes 3 .
  • Clinically useful anti-pseudomonal antibiotics are limited to select penicillins (eg. piperacillin tazobactam), cephalosporins (eg. ceftazidime), carbapenems (eg. imipenem), fluoroquinolones (eg. ciprofloxacin), aminoglycosides (eg. tobramycin) and colistin but resistance to these agents is steadily increasing with few novel anti-pseudomonal agents in clinical development 4 .
  • penicillins eg. piperacillin tazobactam
  • cephalosporins eg. ceftazidime
  • carbapenems eg. imipenem
  • fluoroquinolones eg. ciprofloxacin
  • aminoglycosides eg. tobramycin
  • colistin colistin
  • tobramycin and ciprofloxacin possess multiple modes of action and distinct uptake mechanisms.
  • Tobramycin's mode of action is concentration dependent. At low-concentrations ( ⁇ 4 ⁇ g/mL), tobramycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit, thereby leading to the disruption of protein synthesis while at higher concentrations (> 8 disruption of the outer membrane is observed 5 .
  • the antimicrobial action of the fluoroquinolones is mediated through the inhibition of two type II DNA topoisomerase enzymes, DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV which play an essential role in DNA relaxation, partitioning replicated chromosomal DNA during cell division and decatenation reactions 6 .
  • tobramycin and ciprofloxacin also display different uptake mechanisms.
  • the uptake of aminoglycosides into Gram-negative bacteria involves interactions at sites at which divalent cations cross-bridge adjacent polyanionic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) that causes destabilization of the outer membrane and results in self-promoted uptake of the antibiotic or other extracellular molecules 7
  • LPS polyanionic lipopolysaccharide
  • uptake of fluoroquinolones in Gram-negative bacteria does not occur by self-promoted uptake, but rather involves diffusion across the cell membrane with uptake through the porin pathway 8 .
  • Multitargeting antibiotics are expected to limit the frequency of spontaneous resistance that can arise from mutation in the target gene 29 .
  • One approach to design multitargeting antibacterials involves the covalent attachment of two different pharmacophores that inhibit dissimilar targets in the bacterial cell generating hybrid antibiotics 14 .
  • EPIs Resistance-Nodulation-Division
  • perturbation or disruption of the proton motive force (PMF) which energize efflux pumps can also be used to block the function of RND pumps 36,37 .

  • NMP is a broad spectrum EPI which synergizes with multiple classes of antibiotics including tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, macrolides, penicillins and rifampicin against certain clinically relevant Gram-negative pathogens like E.
  • PAR potentiates tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria excluding P. aeruginosa 40 .
  • EPIs such as DBP, NMP and PAR inhibit efflux of tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics in certain Gram-negative bacteria they are still subject to intrinsic resistance in organisms like P. aeruginosa.

Abstract

Des adjuvants qui sauvent les antibiotiques vis-à-vis des organismes multirésistants aux médicaments (MDR) sont une stratégie de combinaison prometteuse pour surmonter la résistance bactérienne. Tandis que la combinaison d'un antibiotique inhibiteur de la β-lactame β-lactamase a permis de rétablir l'efficacité antibactérienne, l'utilisation d'adjuvants pour rétablir l'efficacité de la fluoroquinolone dans des agents pathogènes multirésistants aux médicaments a été délicate. Nous décrivons ici des adjuvants comprenant un aminoglycoside lié à une fluoroquinolone ou à un inhibiteur de pompes d'efflux, qui rétablissent l'activité antibactérienne in vitro et augmentent l'efficacité in vivo d'antibiotiques de la famille des fluoroquinolones et des tétracyclines contre le Pseudomonas aeruginosa multirésistant aux médicaments et extrêmement résistant aux médicaments (XDR).
