为了解决生物膜对抗生素的高耐受性,迫切需要开发新的策略来对抗这些细菌联盟。一种创新的抗生物膜纳米载体药物递送系统,由分散素B-全甲基化-β-环糊精/环丙沙星金刚烷基(DspB-β-CD/CIP-Ad)组成,在这里描述。为此,CIP-Ad和(i)未修饰的β-CD和(ii)β-CD的不同衍生物之间的络合测定,它们是2,3-O-二甲基-β-CD,2,6-O-二甲基-β-CD,和2,3,6-O-三甲基-β-CD,进行了测试。通过NMR分析获得β-CD/CIP-Ad复合物的化学计量为1/1。进行了等温滴定量热法(ITC)实验以确定Ka,ΔH,在CIP-Ad存在下,β-CD及其不同衍生物之间的复合物的ΔS热力学参数。根据甲基化的类型,以可变的亲和力确认了β-CD/CIP-Ad复合物的化学计量为1/1。相溶解度研究表明,随着CD浓度的增加,CIP-Ad溶解度增加,指出复杂的形成。对表皮葡萄球菌进行了CIP-Ad和2,3-O-二甲基-β-CD/CIP-Ad或2,3,6-O-三甲基-β-CD/CIP-Ad复合物的抗菌活性的评估(S.表皮)菌株。最小抑制浓度(MIC)研究表明,CIP-Ad和2,3-O-二甲基-β-CD的复合物表现出与单独的CIP-Ad相似的抗菌活性,而与2,3,6-O-三甲基-β-CD的相互作用增加了MIC值。对表皮葡萄球菌生物膜的抗微生物测定表明,2,3-O-二甲基-β-CD/CIP-Ad复合物部分维持了DspB/CIP缔合观察到的协同作用。为了获得这个“一体化”给药系统,能够破坏生物膜基质并同时释放抗生素,我们将DspB共价接枝到具有不同长度间隔臂的三种羧酸全甲基化CD衍生物上。通过证明DspB-全甲基化-β-CD/环丙沙星-Ad系统表现出有效的抗生物膜活性来验证该策略。
To address the high tolerance of biofilms to antibiotics, it is urgent to develop new strategies to fight against these bacterial consortia. An innovative antibiofilm nanovector drug delivery system, consisting of Dispersin B-permethylated-β-cyclodextrin/ciprofloxacin adamantyl (DspB-β-CD/CIP-Ad), is described here. For this purpose, complexation assays between CIP-Ad and (i) unmodified β-CD and (ii) different derivatives of β-CD, which are 2,3-O-dimethyl-β-CD, 2,6-O-dimethyl-β-CD, and 2,3,6-O-trimethyl-β-CD, were tested. A stoichiometry of 1/1 was obtained for the β-CD/CIP-Ad complex by NMR analysis. Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) experiments were carried out to determine Ka, ΔH, and ΔS thermodynamic parameters of the complex between β-CD and its different derivatives in the presence of CIP-Ad. A stoichiometry of 1/1 for β-CD/CIP-Ad complexes was confirmed with variable affinity according to the type of methylation. A phase solubility study showed increased CIP-Ad solubility with CD concentration, pointing out complex formation. The evaluation of the antibacterial activity of CIP-Ad and the 2,3-O-dimethyl-β-CD/CIP-Ad or 2,3,6-O-trimethyl-β-CD/CIP-Ad complexes was performed on Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis) strains. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) studies showed that the complex of CIP-Ad and 2,3-O-dimethyl-β-CD exhibited a similar antimicrobial activity to CIP-Ad alone, while the interaction with 2,3,6-O-trimethyl-β-CD increased MIC values. Antimicrobial assays on S. epidermidis biofilms demonstrated that the synergistic effect observed with the DspB/CIP association was partly maintained with the 2,3-O-dimethyl-β-CDs/CIP-Ad complex. To obtain this \"all-in-one\" drug delivery system, able to destroy the biofilm matrix and release the antibiotic simultaneously, we covalently grafted DspB on three carboxylic permethylated CD derivatives with different-length spacer arms. The strategy was validated by demonstrating that a DspB-permethylated-β-CD/ciprofloxacin-Ad system exhibited efficient antibiofilm activity.
