The present disclosure relates to the field of medicinal chemistry and more particularly to the development of antimicrobial compounds. The present disclosure relates to polyamine conjugates, its isomers, prodrugs and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The present disclosure further relates to the synthesis and characterization of polyamine conjugates to exhibit high antimicrobial activity. The compounds of the present disclosure are useful in the treatment, prevention or suppression of diseases and conditions mediated by microbes.
Bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics is one of the most serious problems to the global health at this moment. There is ongoing research for the development of novel antibacterial agents to overcome this problem. Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs) can address such unmet need (Hancock et al. Nat. Biotechnol., 2006, 24, 1551-1557; Hancock et al. Nat. Rev. Drug Discov., 2012, 11, 37-51). AMPs are widely found in the animal and plant kingdom and are usually the first line of defense against any infection (Michael Zasloff Nature, 2002, 45, 389-395). These are amphipathic peptides with net cationic charge and amphiphilicity (hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance) which are known to act primarily by causing lysis of the bacterial cell membrane, while most of the conventional antibiotics have specific targets in the bacteria. Consequently, unlike in the case of conventional antibiotics, where even point mutations can render them inactive, bacteria might have lower propensity to develop resistance against antimicrobial peptides (Brogden et al. Nature Rev. Microbiol., 2005, 3, 238-250). However, no AMP has been approved for clinical use, although some are under promising clinical trials. This is mainly because of the in-vivo toxicity, high cost of manufacture and labile to protease degradation.
Another class of amphipathic peptides is lipopeptides which have a net cationic/anionic charge and lipophilic aliphatic tail. The lipophilic tail in the lipopeptides plays a crucial role towards its activity, which facilitates microbial membrane interaction (Malina et al. Biochem. J., 2005, 390, 695-702; Makovitzki et al. PNAS, 2006, 103, 15997-6002). The lipopeptides generally show antimicrobial activity towards a narrow spectrum of microorganism. For example, daptomycin is only active against Gram-positive bacteria; polymixin (polymixin B and colistin) is active only toward Gram-negative bacteria, while echinocandins function only as antifungal drugs. Daptomycin acts by calcium (Ca+2) dependent dissipation of bacterial membrane potential, causes disruption of multiple aspects of cellular function and leakage of cell components. Cationic lipopeptide polymixin binds with the anionic lipopolysaccharide molecules by displacing calcium (Ca+2) and magnesium (Mg+2) from the outer cell membrane of gram-negative bacteria which leads to permeability changes in the cell envelope resulting in leakage of cell components, and finally causes cell death. FDA has approved daptomycin for treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections. But recently the resistance of daptomycin has reported (Infect. Dis. Clin. Pract., 2013, 21, 79-84). Polymixin became available for clinical use in the 1960s, but presently it is used only as a last resort because of its toxicity. Limitation of lipopeptides mainly lies in their in-vivo toxicity, structural complexity, challenging synthesis, high cost of manufacture. Hence, substantial effort has been directed towards development of designs and strategies to counter the problems faced by lipopeptides.
From the foregoing it is clear that compounds used in the state of the art to treat and prevent bacterial infection have been found to have limited effect. Further, there is a continuing need to identify new compounds which possess improved antibacterial activity, which have less potential for developing resistance, which possess improved effectiveness against bacterial infections that resist treatment with currently available antibiotics, or which possess unexpected selectivity against target microorganisms.
Spermidine is a polyamine compound (C7H19N3) found in ribosomes and living tissues, and having various metabolic functions within organisms. Norspermidine is a homologue of spermidine and possess significant antitumor activity. It also acts as a biofilm-disassembly factor.
Norspermidine interacts directly and specifically with exopolysaccharide. D-amino acids and norspermidine act together to break down existing biofilms (“A Self-produced Trigger for Biofilm Disassembly that Targets Exopolysaccharide”, Koldkin-Gal et. al., Cell, 2012).
A library of polyamine-peptide conjugates is identified to be inhibitors of trypanothione reductase. Norspermidine-based peptides inhibit trypanothione reductase (“Mechanism and structure-activity relationships of norspermidine-based peptidic inhibitors of trypanothione reductase”, Dixon et. al., Biorganic & Medicinal Chemistry, 2005).
WO2012151554 discloses methods of treating or reducing biofilms, treating a biofilm related disorder, and preventing biofilm formation using polyamines. It discloses the use of a combination of norspermidine with D-Tyr or with a mixture of D-Met, D-Trp, D-Leu and D-Tyr to prevent biofilm formation by Bacillus subtilis at concentrations that were ineffective in blocking biofilm formation when applied separately.
WO2013017714 discloses compounds that act as low molecular weight organogels which are structurally similar to Phenylalanine based lipopeptides.
Any agent used to prevent infection or to impair biofilm must be non-toxic towards mammalian cells and safe to the environment. Certain biocidal agents, in quantities sufficient to interfere with biofilms, also can damage host tissues. Antibiotics introduced into local tissue areas can induce the formation of resistant organisms which can then form biofilm communities whose planktonic microorganisms would likewise be resistant to the particular antibiotics. Furthermore, long term systemic antibiotic therapy to eradicate infection causes increase level of toxicity towards host cell. Thus, there is a need to identify and/or develop new compounds and/or derivatives that has enhanced activity against bacterial strains including multidrug resistant bacteria while the compounds are non-toxic and biodegradable in nature.
In addition to antibacterial compounds, there also exists a great need for compounds which are effective against other types of microbe, particularly viruses, fungi and protozoa. The great need for antiviral compounds is exemplified by the current outbreak Ebola virus epidemic, for which there are currently no licensed therapeutics.
The need for further antimicrobial compounds (i.e. compounds which are effective against bacteria, viruses, fungi and/or protozoa) is addressed by the present invention.

Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC): Antibacterial activity is reported as Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), which is the lowest concentration of the antibacterial agent that able to inhibit the growth of microorganism after overnight incubation. All synthesized compounds were assayed in a modified micro-dilution broth format. Stock solutions were made by serially diluting the compounds using autoclaved millipore water.
The bacterial freeze dried stock samples were stored at −80° C. About 5 μL of these stocks were added to about 3 mL of the respective broth and the culture was grown for about 6 h at about 37° C. with prior to the experiments. This 6 h grown culture gives about 109 cfu/mL in case of S. aureus (MTCC 737), MRSA (ATCC 33591), and 108 cfu/mL in case of E. coli (MTCC 443), Enterococcus faecium (ATCC 19634), VRE and Klebsiella pneumonie (ATCC 700603) which were determined by spread plating method. This 6 h grown culture was diluted to give effective cell concentration of 105 cfu/mL, was then used for determining MIC. Compounds were serially diluted, in sterile millipore water (as 2 fold manner) in a way, so that the maximum working concentration was 250 μg/mL. About 50 μL of these serial dilutions were added to the wells of 96 well plate followed by the addition of about 150 μL of bacterial solution. The plates were then incubated at about 37° C., 150 rpm in the incubator and O.D at 600 nm was recorded at 24 h using TECAN (Infinite series, M200 pro) Plate Reader. Each concentration had triplicate values and the whole experiment was done at least twice and the MIC value was determined by taking the average of triplicate O. D. values for each concentration and plotting it against concentration. The data was then subjected to sigmoidal fitting. From the curve the MIC value was determined, as the point in the curve where the O.D. was similar to that of control having no bacteria.
The antimicrobial activities of these compounds were determined against a variety of bacteria by evaluating their Minimum Inhibition Concentrations (MIC). Most of the compounds were active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria at micro molar concentrations which is comparable to the clinically approved conventional antibiotics. For example, compound 2, 6, 7, 12 and 17 were active against Staphylococcus aureus at a concentration of range 2-5 μM (Table 1). Similarly compound 11 and 12 showed very good activity with MIC values 2 and 1.1 μM respectively against Enterococcus faecium. Other compounds also showed high activity against this bacteria, like compound 2, 6, 7, 13, 15, 16 and 17 have the MIC value in the range of 2-5 μM (Table 1). In case of E. coli only lysine and ornithine series of compounds have shown good activity, compounds 11, 12, 15, 16 and 17 having MIC value in the concentration range of 4-6 μM (Table 1). Vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) is a multi-drug resistant bacterium, which is highly pathogenic. All the compounds were active against VRE and most of the compound having MIC value below 5 μM (Table 2), the best activity with MIC values 1 and 1.5 μM were shown by the compounds 11 and 12 respectively. Most of the compound was active against MRSA and multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumonie in the range of micro molar (3-10 μM) concentration (Table 2).
All the antibacterial activities have been furnished in Tables: 1 and 2.

Erythrocytes were isolated from freshly drawn, heparanized human blood and re-suspended to 5 vol % in PBS (pH 7.4). In a 96-well microtiter plate, 150 μL of erythrocyte suspension was added to 50 μL of serially diluted compound. Two controls were made, one without compound and other with 50 μL of 1 vol % solution of Triton X-100. The plate was incubated for 1 h at 37° C. The plate was then centrifuged at 3,500 rpm for 5 min, 100 μL of the supernatant from each well was transferred to a fresh 96-well microtiter plate, and A540 was measured. Percentage of hemolysis was determined as (A−A0)/(Atotal−A0)×100, where A is the absorbance of the test well, A0 the absorbance of the negative controls (without compound), and Atotal the absorbance of 100% hemolysis wells (with Triton X-100), all at 540 nm.
Toxicity studies of the compounds were done on freshly drawn human RBCs. Toxicity of the compounds was defined by their HC50 values (Table 3), i.e. the concentration of compound at which 50% of the blood cells are lysed. Hemolytic studies showed that all of these compounds were selective towards bacteria over human RBCs. Compound 9 and 10 did not show any hemolytic even at 1000 M concentration also. But, at the same time these compounds are not good from activity point of view. The best compound from selectivity (HC50/MIC) point of view is compound 11, which shows 50% hemolysis at 588 M having selectivity of 392 with respect to resistant bacteria VRE.
Antibacterial efficacy in human plasma: One of the limitations of lipopeptides is liability towards protease degradation. We were able to overcome this limitation through our synthetic design. We have incorporated D-Phenylalanine (compound 6) in place of L-Phenylalanine (compound 2) and performed the MIC experiment at different time intervals after incubating the compounds in 50% human plasma (

Cytotoxicity: Toxicity of the compounds against a mammalian cell line (Hela Cells) was determined using the MTT assay. Cytotoxicity of the compound 8a was assessed against HeLa and RAW (macrophage) cell lines. Briefly, the cells were grown in a 96-well plate in DMEM media (supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 5% penicillin-streptomycin) until they reached around 70-80% confluency. The cells were then treated with 50 μL of serially diluted compound 16. Two controls were made; one containing no compound (non-treated cells) and the other one was treated with 10 vol % Triton-X 100 solution. The plate was incubated for 1 h at 37° C. under 5% CO2 atmosphere. After 24 h, the medium was carefully removed and 100 μL of MTT solution (5 mg/mL concentration) was then added to each well. The plate was incubated for 4 h at 37° C. under 5% CO2 atmosphere. Then it was centrifuged at 1100 rpm for 5 min and the supernatant was removed. After that 100 μL of DMSO was added to solubilize formazan crystals. The O. D. of the plate was then recorded at 570 nm. Percentage of cell survival was calculated using the following equation: Cell viability (%)=(Atreated-AtritonX-treated)/(Anon-treated-AtritonX-treated)×100. Each concentration had triplicate values and the average of triplicate O. D. values were plotted against concentration followed by fitted with sigmoidal plot. From the curve the values were determined corresponding to 50% cell viability. For bright-field microscopic images, a 40× objective was used and images were captured using a Leica DM2500 microscope. Compound 16 did not show any toxicity at its MIC and showed EC50 values (50% cells viability)>70 μg/mL against these cell lines (
Antibacterial activity against stationary phase bacteria: As conventional antibiotics primarily target the cellular processes in bacteria, therefore most known antibiotics remain ineffective at the stationary-phase of bacteria. Time-kill kinetics against the stationary phase S. aureus bacteria were also investigated for compound 16. Briefly, S. aureus was grown in yeast-dextrose broth at 37° C. for 18 h to achieve them in stationary-phase. The test compound 16 was then added to the stationary-phase bacteria with the working concentrations of 50 and 100 μg/mL. It was then incubated at 37° C. with shaking at 150 rpm. At different time intervals (0, 1 and 3 h) 20 μL of aliquots from that solution were serially diluted 10-fold in 0.9% saline. Then from the dilutions, 20 μL was plated on yeast-dextrose agar plates and incubated at 37° C. After 24 h the bacterial colonies were counted and results represented in logarithmic scale, i.e. Log (CFU/mL). As shown in
Resistance studies: The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a major problem to global health. Hence, to investigate the potential of these compounds as an antibacterial agent with sufficient longevity, the ability of S. aureus (Gram-positive representative) and E. coli (Gram-negative representative) bacteria to develop resistance against these compounds was investigated. For this study, compound 16 was chosen as the model compound. Norfloxacin was used as a positive control for S. aureus, whereas colistin was used in the case of E. coli. At first, the MIC value of compound 16 was determined against both the bacteria. In the cases of norfloxacin and colistin the initial MIC values were also determined against respective bacteria. For the next day MIC experiment, the bacterial dilution was made by using the bacteria from sub-MIC concentration of the compounds (at MIC/2). After a 24 h incubation period, again bacterial dilution was prepared by using the bacterial suspension from sub-MIC concentration of the compound (at MIC/2) and assayed for the next MIC experiment. The process was repeated for 20 and 30 passages in the cases of S. aureus and E. coli, respectively. The fold of MIC increased for test compound, and control antibiotics were plotted against the number of days and it showed no change in the MIC for test compounds against S. aureus and E. coli even after 20 and 30 passages, respectively (
Bacterial biofilm disruption: Biofilms are adherent communities of bacteria where they are embedded within self-produced extracellular matrix consisting of exopolysaccharides, proteins and sometimes extracellular DNA. Bacteria behave as multicellular organisms inside the biofilm and develop strategies that prevent the entrance of antibiotics. As a result, antibiotics that are able to kill planktonic bacteria, are often ineffective to treat biofilm associated infections such as lung infections of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, burn wound infections, catheter infections, bacterial endocarditis, chronic wound infections, and so on. The efficacy of this class of compounds as bacterial biofilm disrupting agent was established by comparing the extent of pre-formed biofilm eradication of compound 16 and antibiotics such as erythromycin, norfloxacin, linezolid, tetracycline and vancomycin. Briefly, stock solution was prepared with midlog phase culture of S. aureus (diluted to approximately 105 CFU/mL) in nutrient broth supplemented with 1% glucose and 1% NaCl. Biofilms were then grown into a 96-well plate by adding 100 μL of this stock solution. Then, 100 μL of the test compound 16 and control antibiotics such as erythromycin, norfloxacin, linezolid, tetracycline and vancomycin (64×MIC) were added to the biofilm and allowed to incubate for 24 h. One control was made where 100 μL of complete medium was added instead of compound or antibiotics. At the end of 24 h disrupted biofilms were quantified by plating serial 10-fold dilutions of biofilm suspension. Cell viability in biofilms was expressed as Log (CFU/mL) and compared with the non-treated control. For visualizing, disrupted biofilms were stained with 0.1% of crystal violet (CV) and images were captured using normal digital camera. For confocal laser-scanning microscope, biofilm were stained with SYTO-9 (3 μM). Results suggested that compared to the non-treated control, compound 16 displayed significant reductions (more than 4 Log CFU/mL) of cell viability in the pre-existing biofilms of pathogenic S. aureus bacteria at its MIC concentration, whereas none of the antibiotics showed significant reduction even at very high concentrations (64×MIC) as shown in
MRC-5 and VeroE6 cells were sourced from the European Collection of Cell Cultures having been seeded into 96-well plates. Compound 16 was selected as a model for in vitro antiviral studies. A range of concentrations for were made at two levels either side of the recommended concentration suggested for in vitro work (1 mg/ml). Concentrations were made at double the final dilution to take into account an equal volume of virus suspension to be added (
Within a Containment Level 4 laboratory, media was removed from the inner wells of the 96-well plates. Due to edge-effects, the outer wells were left with media added. Compounds were added at 5 replicates per dilution. Ebola virus suspension (strain ME718) was added at a concentration of approximately 500 TCID50/well to triplicate wells per compound dilution, with the remaining two wells having media alone added.
Based on results from growth of Ebola virus in MRC-5 and VeroE6 cells, the supernatants from MRC-5 and VeroE6 cells were harvested on days 3 and 6 post-infection, respectively. Cells were microscopically assessed for assessment of cell health. 140 μl of supernatant was added to 560 μl AVL buffer for RNA extraction and PCR. Ct values from the PCR assay were used to give a consistent reading of the amount of Ebola virus RNA levels in the samples. Formaldehyde solution was added to all wells to fix attached cells for subsequent staining with crystal violet to assess cell attachment.
To confirm these results, a second in vitro study was conducted in MRC-5 cells. The Ebola virus infection was at a higher inoculum (5000 TCID50 per well) and supernatants harvested after 2 days into AVL buffer. Additionally, the surfaces of the wells were treated with RLT buffer and samples collected for the assessment of viral RNA levels within attached cells. Additionally, concentrations of compounds used were lower.
The Ct values from the Ebola virus PCR assays from the first in vitro testing are shown in Tables 7 and 8 from the MRC-5 and VeroE6 studies, respectively. The PCR assay showed undetectable Ebola virus specific signals at high concentrations and then reductions in viral genome levels at lower concentrations.
To confirm the antiviral effects of model compound 16, the in vitro screening was repeated in the MRC-5 cells infected with a higher dose of Ebola virus and left for 2 days. Ct values from the supernatant and attached cells are shown in tables 9 and 10, respectively. The Ct values are generally lower than the previous study, most likely as a result of the higher viral inoculum used. Results were consistent with the previous study, showing that and compound 16 reduced the amount of viral genome present.

A further in vitro study was performed in which model compound 16 was compared with 19 other compounds, which were identified according to their Technology Readiness Score, their ability to make a difference to the current Ebolavirus epidemic, and their likely efficacy against Ebola virus. The effects of these 20 compounds (including compound 16) on viral amplification was assessed using MRC-5 and VeroE6 cells infected with Ebola virus. Of these 20 compounds, compound 16 provided one of the top two Ct values, in both cell types.
