New Antimicrobial Hexapeptides: Synthesis,Antimicrobial Activities,Cytotoxicity, and Mechanistic Studies

Synthetic antimicrobial peptides have recently emerged as promising candidates against drug‐resistant pathogens. We identified a novel hexapeptide, Orn‐D ‐Trp‐D ‐Phe‐Ile‐D ‐Phe‐His(1‐Bzl)‐NH₂, which exhibits broad‐spectrum antifungal and antibacterial activity. A lead optimization was undertaken by conducting a full amino acid scan with various proteinogenic and non‐proteinogenic amino acids depending on the hydrophobic or positive‐charge character of residues at various positions along the sequence. The hexapeptide was also cyclized to study the correlation between the linear and cyclic structures and their respective antimicrobial activities. The synthesized peptides were found to be active against the fungus Candida albicans and Gram‐positive bacteria such as methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis, as well as the Gram‐negative bacterium Escherichia coli; MIC values for the most potent structures were in the range of 1–5 μg mL^?1 (IC₅₀ values in the range of 0.02–2 μg mL^?1). Most of the synthesized peptides showed no cytotoxic effects in an MTT assay up to the highest test concentration of 200 μg mL^?1. A tryptophan fluorescence quenching study was performed in the presence of negatively charged and zwitterionic model membranes, mimicking bacterial and mammalian membranes, respectively. The results of the fluorescence study demonstrate that the tested peptides are selective toward bacterial over mammalian cells; this is associated with a preferential interaction between the peptides and the negatively charged phospholipids of bacterial cells.     

Synthesis,Surface and Antimicrobial Activities of Novel Cationic Gemini Surfactants

A series of novel cationic gemini surfactants [C_nH_2n+1–O–CH₂–CH(OH)–CH₂–N⁺(CH₃)₂–(CH₂)₂]₂·2Br^? [ 3a (n = 12), 3b (n = 14) and 3c (n = 16)] having a 2‐hydroxy‐1,3‐oxypropylene group [?CH₂–CH(OH)–CH₂–O–] in the hydrophobic chain have been synthesized and characterized. Their water solubility, surface activity, foaming properties, and antibacterial activity have been examined. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of the novel cationic gemini surfactants are one to two orders of magnitude smaller than those of the corresponding monomeric surfactants. Furthermore, the novel cationic gemini surfactants have better water solubility and surface activity than the comparable [C_nH_2n+1–N⁺(CH₃)₂–(CH₂)₂]₂·2Br^? (n‐4‐n) geminis. The novel cationic gemini surfactants 3a and 3b also exhibit good foaming properties and show good antibacterial and antifungal activities.     

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of Some Novel Cross-Linked Chitosan Hydrogels

Four novel hydrogels based on chitosan were synthesized via a cross-linking reaction of chitosan with different concentrations of oxalyl bis 4-(2,5-dioxo-2H-pyrrol- 1(5H)-yl)benzamide. Their structures were confirmed by fourier transform infrared X-ray (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction. The antimicrobial activities of the hydrogels against two crop-threatening pathogenic fungi namely: Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus, RCMBA 06002), and Aspergillus niger (A. niger, RCMBA 06106), and five bacterial species namely: Bacillis subtilis (B. subtilis, RCMBA 6005), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, RCMBA 2004), Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumonia, RCMB 000101) as Gram positive bacteria, and Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium, RCMB 000104), and Escherichia coli (E. coli, RCMBA 5003) as Gram negative bacteria have been investigated. The prepared hydrogels showed much higher antimicrobial activities than that of the parent chitosan. The hydrogels were more potent in case of Gram-positive bacteria than Gram-negative bacteria. Increasing the degree of cross-linking in the hydrogels resulted in a weaker antimicrobial activity.     

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activities of Oximes Derived from O-Benzylhydroxylamine as FabH Inhibitors

Forty‐three oxime derivatives were synthesized by allowing O‐benzylhydroxylamines to react with primary benzaldehydes or salicylaldehydes; these products were gauged as potential inhibitors of β‐ketoacyl‐(acyl‐carrier‐protein) synthase III (FabH). Among the 43 compounds, 38 are reported herein for the first time. These compounds were assayed for antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis. Compounds with prominent antibacterial activities were tested for their E. coli FabH inhibitory activities. 3‐((2,4‐Dichlorobenzyloxyimino)methyl)benzaldehyde O‐2,4‐dichlorobenzyl oxime ( 44 ) showed the best antibacterial activity, with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 3.13–6.25 μg mL^?1 against the tested bacterial strains, exhibiting the best E. coli FabH inhibitory activity, with an IC₅₀ value of 1.7 mM . Docking simulations were performed to position compound 44 into the E. coli FabH active site in order to determine the most probable binding conformation.

Synthesis,Surface and Antimicrobial Activities of Cationic Gemini Surfactants with Semi-Rigid Spacers

Four cationic gemini surfactants featuring semi-rigid spacers were synthesized via a two-step process. The surface-active properties of these surfactants were investigated through surface tension and electrical conductivity measurement. The thermodynamic parameters of micellization were evaluated from electrical conductivity measurements at temperatures ranging from 293 to 313 K. The aggregation behavior of these synthesized gemini surfactants in water were investigated using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. Further, the antimicrobial activities of these synthesized gemini surfactants against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria were also investigated.     

Screening for Potential Antimicrobial Activities of Some Cationic Uracil Biocides Against Wide-Spreading Bacterial Strains

Eight novel uracil-based cationic surfactants containing Schiff base species were synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, FTIR, ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy. The surface activities of the synthesized Schiff bases and their cationic derivatives were determined based on interfacial tension measurements and partition coefficient values in water/octanol system. The synthesized Schiff bases and their cationic derivatives were evaluated as novel biocides against different bacteria and fungi strains. The results showed that the biocidal activity of the synthesized Schiff bases was considerably increased by quaternization. The influence of the cationic surfactants as biocides was increased by increasing the hydrophobic chain length and the presence of the methoxy groups. The biocidal activity was also increased by increasing the partition coefficient in water/octanol system. The structure and surface activity/biocidal activity of the different compounds were discussed.     

Synthesis,Surface-Active Properties,and Antimicrobial Activities of New Neutral and Cationic Trimeric Surfactants

Neutral and cationic series of new trimeric β-hydroxy amino or ammonium surfactants were synthesized via a two-step process involving the Williamson etherification and regioselective oxirane ring opening with primary and tertiary amines, which afforded good to excellent yields. The synthesized compounds were obtained in high purity by a simple purification procedure on column chromatography. The critical micelle concentration (CMC), effectiveness of surface tension reduction (γ _CMC), surface excess concentration (Γ), and area per molecule at the interface (A) were determined and values indicate that the cationic series is characterized by good surface-active and self-aggregation properties. The antimicrobial activities are reported for the first time against representative bacteria and fungi for trimeric compounds. The antimicrobial potency was found to be dependent on the target microorganism (Gram-positive bacteria > fungi > Gram-negative bacteria), as well as both the neutral or ionic nature (cationic > neutral) and alkyl chain length (tri-C₁₂ > tri-C₁₈ > tri-C₈) of the compounds. The tri-C₈ and tri-C₁₈ compounds were found to be almost inactive and the tri-C₁₂ compounds, the most potent antimicrobial surface-active agents from the synthesized series. The trimeric C₁₂ cationic compound was found to be comparable to benzalkonium chloride against Gram-positive bacteria and fungi, in vitro. The antimicrobial effectiveness of this new compound and the facile two-step procedure for synthesizing it with an excellent overall yield (92%) provide a cost effective trimeric gemini surfactant.

Mechanism of Antimicrobial Peptides: Antimicrobial,Anti-Inflammatory and Antibiofilm Activities

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are regarded as a new generation of antibiotics. Besides antimicrobial activity, AMPs also have antibiofilm, immune-regulatory, and other activities. Exploring the mechanism of action of AMPs may help in the modification and development of AMPs. Many studies were conducted on the mechanism of AMPs. The present review mainly summarizes the research status on the antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antibiofilm properties of AMPs. This study not only describes the mechanism of cell wall action and membrane-targeting action but also includes the transmembrane mechanism of intracellular action and intracellular action targets. It also discusses the dual mechanism of action reported by a large number of investigations. Antibiofilm and anti-inflammatory mechanisms were described based on the formation of biofilms and inflammation. This study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the multiple activities and coordination of AMPs in vivo, and to fully understand AMPs to realize their therapeutic prospect.

Pyridine Compounds with Antimicrobial and Antiviral Activities

In the context of the new life-threatening COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, finding new antiviral and antimicrobial compounds is a priority in current research. Pyridine is a privileged nucleus among heterocycles; its compounds have been noted for their therapeutic properties, such as antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor, analgesic, anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-Alzheimer’s, anti-ulcer or antidiabetic. It is known that a pyridine compound, which also contains a heterocycle, has improved therapeutic properties. The singular presence of the pyridine nucleus, or its one together with one or more heterocycles, as well as a simple hydrocarbon linker, or grafted with organic groups, gives the key molecule a certain geometry, which determines an interaction with a specific protein, and defines the antimicrobial and antiviral selectivity for the target molecule. Moreover, an important role of pyridine in medicinal chemistry is to improve water solubility due to its poor basicity. In this article, we aim to review the methods of synthesis of pyridine compounds, their antimicrobial and antiviral activities, the correlation of pharmaceutical properties with various groups present in molecules as well as the binding mode from Molecular Docking Studies.     

Nonionic Isatin Surfactants: Synthesis,Quantum Chemical Calculations,ADMET and Their Antimicrobial Activities

A nonionic surfactant (N-isatin-EO _m-C _n where m is 5, 7 and 9 ethylene glycol units and n is 8, 10 and 12) is achieved by first reacting isatin with chloroacetic acid and then with different types of ethoxylated (C₈–C₁₂) fatty alcohols that possess 5, 7 and 9 ethylene oxide units. The prepared surfactants were characterized by FTIR and ¹H NMR to confirm the structure. The surface activity, biodegradability, antimicrobial, and antifungal activity of the surfactants were evaluated. In addition, quantum chemical calculations and computations of oral bioavailability were performed. The obtained data show that all the synthesized compounds had good surface activity, biodegradability and biological activity.

Acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine hydrogels were synthesized by radiation polymerization technique using a γ-irradiator. The prepared radiation-synthesized acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine hydrogels were then treated using a modifying agent with aromatic functional group. The modifying agent used in the modification of acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine hydrogels was the N-aromatic alkyl quaternizing agent of chloromethyl benzene. The functional group on the modified acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine hydrogels was confirmed with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry. Thermal analysis, surface morphology investigation, and swelling of the modified and unmodified hydrogels were completed. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the modified and unmodified hydrogels were also tested against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923); two gram-negative Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853) human pathogenic bacteria and a fungal strain—Candida albicans (ATCC 10231) for their MBC values. It was found that acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine hydrogels do not possess biocidal properties, whereas the modified form of acrylamide/4-vinyl pyridine?chloromethyl benzene showed highly bactericidal characteristics.
