Abstract
Abstract
Background
Tuberculosis is evidently a major health threat among human populations worldwide. The current study presents the synthesis of new 3-((7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)amino)thiazolidin-4-one analogs (4a–o) as potential Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase inhibitors. DNA gyrase regulates DNA topology in MTB and has been a target of choice for antibacterial therapy. With this in mind, the synthesized derivatives (4a–o) were subjected to in vitro antitubercular evaluation by the MABA method and were tested for MTB DNA gyrase inhibition by supercoiling assay.
Results
All the synthesized compounds displayed inhibition of MTB within the MIC range of 1.56–12.5 μM. Further, out of the selected compounds that underwent DNA gyrase inhibition, compound 4o proved to be a potent lead molecule by displaying 82% of enzyme inhibition at 1 μM. All the synthesized derivatives also underwent molecular docking studies to comprehend their hypothetical binding interactions with Mycobacterium smegmatis GyrB.
Conclusion
All the results suggested that most of the synthesized derivatives inhibited Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and some 3-((7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)amino)thiazolidin-4-one analogs could act as leads for the development of antitubercular agents.

Abstract
A study of the anti-tuberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis ATTC 27294 and an X-ray structural determination of (E)-2-[2-(arylidene)hydrazinyl]pyrimidine, 1, and (E)-N
1-(arylidene)pyrimidine-2-carbohydazide, 2, derivatives are presented. The effect of the substituents in the aryl moiety on the antituberculosis (anti-TB) activities of 1 and 2 is compared with that of other heteroaryl hydrazonyl and acylhydrazonyl derivatives. The biological activities of 1 do not depend on the coordinating ability of the substituted aryl group: in 2, the most effective aryl group is 5-nitrofuranyl. The structure determinations of (E)-2-((2-(pyrimidin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)-phenol, (E)-N′-(2,5-dihydroxybenzylidene)pyrimidine-2-carbohydrazide and of the hydrate of (E)-N′-(2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzylidene)pyrimidine-2-carbohydrazide, and a literature search of related structures in the CCDC data base, allowed an examination of the more important interactions, including the occurrence of X–Y⋯π interactions.

Abstract
A series of N-pyridinylbenzamides was designed and prepared to investigate the influence of isosterism and positional isomerism on antimycobacterial activity. Comparison to previously published isosteric N-pyrazinylbenzamides was made as an attempt to draw structure-activity relationships in such type of compounds. In total, we prepared 44 different compounds, out of which fourteen had minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra below 31.25 µg/ml, most promising being N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (23) and N-(6-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (24) with MIC = 7.81 µg/ml (26 µm). Five compounds showed broad-spectrum antimycobacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Ra, M. smegmatis and M. aurum. N-(pyridin-2-yl)benzamides were generally more active than N-(pyridin-3-yl)benzamides, indicating that N-1 in the parental structure of N-pyrazinylbenzamides might be more important for antimycobacterial activity than N-4. Marginal antibacterial and antifungal activity was observed for title compounds. The hepatotoxicity of title compounds was assessed in vitro on hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2, and they may be considered non-toxic (22 compounds with IC50 over 200 µm).

Abstract
We have recently identified mycolic acid methyl transferase (MmaA1) enzyme inhibitors as potential antitubercular agents using in silico modelling techniques. In continuation of that study, we synthesised a series of novel 3-(N-substituted glycinamido) benzoic acid derivatives with an aim to optimise the lead molecule. The newly synthesised compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimycobacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv. Among these, 5 compounds A3, A4, A5, A6 and A10 exhibited most potent activity with an MIC value of 1.6 μg/ml. Further molecular docking studies were carried out to investigate the binding mode of the ligands with MmaA1 protein. The docking studies revealed that the ligands made strong interactions with the catalytic site residues TRP30, TYR 32, GLY 71, TRP 74, GLY 76, ALA 77 and GLU 136 of MmaA1 protein. Druglikeness and leadlikeness properties of the compounds were also studied using computational tools. The results of in silico and in vitro studies indicate that these novel compounds are propitious leads for tuberculosis therapy.

Abstract
Decaprenylphosphoryl-β-d-ribose 2'-oxidoreductase (DprE1) is a promising drug target for the development of novel anti-tubercular agents, and inhibitors of DprE1 are being investigated extensively. Among them, the 1,3-benzothiazinone compounds such as BTZ043, and its closer congener, PBTZ169, are undergoing clinical studies. It has been shown that both BTZ compounds are prodrugs, the nitro group is reduced to nitroso first, to which an adjacent Cys387 in the DprE1 binding pocket is covalently bound and results in suicide enzyme inhibition. We figured that replacement of the nitro with an electrophilic warhead would still achieve covalent interaction with nucleophilic Cys387, while the required reductive activation could be circumvented. To test this hypothesis, a number of covalent inhibitors of DprE1 were designed and prepared. The compounds inhibitory potency against DprE1 and anti-tubercular activity were investigated, their chemical reactivity, formation of covalent adduct between the warhead and the enzyme was demonstrated by mass spectrometry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The current study has evaluated the MICs and MBCs of ZnONPs, MgONPs, and MgONPs-ZnONPs against H37Rv Mtb and MDR-Mtb. METHODS Mixture, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (NPs) and zinc oxide (MgONPs-ZnONPs) were prepared. The microplate alamar blue (MABA) assay and the proportion method were used to evaluate of anti-tubercular activity against MDR-MTB. MTT test was done to MgONPs-ZnONPs against Vero and HepG2 cell lines. RESULTS The MIC of MgONPs and ZnONPs were 0.195 and 0.468 μg mL-1 against 104 of H37Rv Mtb. As well, 0.166 μg mL-1 of MgONPs-ZnONPs was able to inhibit 10-4 H37Rv Mtb. The MIC of MgONPs against 104 concentrations of MDR-Mtb was 12.5 μg mL-1. The MIC of MgONPs/ZnONPs against 104 concentrations of MDR-Mtb reached to 0.664 μg mL-1. The MBC value of ZnONPs increased to 1.875 μg mL-1 against 10-4 concentrations of MDR-Mtb. Testing showed that the MBCs of MgONPs/ZnONPs reached to 1.328 μg mL-1 against 104 concentrations of MDR-Mtb. The IC50 against MDR-TB was 0.779 μg mL-1 for ZnONPs and 0.883 μg mL-1 for MgONPs-ZnONPs. The MgONPs-ZnONPs was not toxic to Vero cell lines however ZnONPs could inhibit the Vero and HepG2 cell lines. CONCLUSION We found that ZnONPs and mixture MgONPs-ZnONPs not only have higher bactericide behavior but might have also synergistic effects against MDR-TB.

Abstract
Background:
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and Tuberculosis (TB) are global
concern. According to the WHO fact sheet on tuberculosis, in 2017, 10 million people fell ill with
TB, and 1.6 million including 230,000 children died from the disease. There is a critical need of
design and development of novel chemotherapeutic agents to combat the emergence and increasing
prevalence of resistant pathogens. In the present study, a new series of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles
incorporating benzimidazole and pyridine scaffolds in a single molecular framework has been
reported.
Methods:
The structures of the synthesized derivatives (4a to 4e) were assigned by IR, NMR and
mass spectral techniques. The hybrid compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial,
antitubercular and antioxidant activities. In addition, docking simulations were performed to study
ligand-protein interactions and to determine the probable binding conformations.
Results:
Molecule 4a has shown anti-tubular activities with MIC 1.6 μg/ml. As compared to
ascorbic acid activities (IC50 = 62.91 μg/ml), molecule 4e exhibited better antioxidant activities
(IC50 = 24.85 μg/ml). Also, molecule 4e has shown significant antimicrobial activities.
Conclusion:
The synthesized derivatives from 4a to 4e have exhibited various medicinal activities
and could be emerged as lead compounds and further explored as potential therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Starting from isoniazid and carboxylic acids as precursors, thirteen new hydrazides and 1,3,4-oxadiazoles of 2-(4-substituted-phenoxymethyl)-benzoic acids were synthesized and characterized by appropriate means. Their biological properties were evaluated in terms of apoptosis, cell cycle blocking, and drug metabolism gene expression on HCT-8 and HT-29 cell lines. In vitro antimicrobial tests were performed by the microplate Alamar Blue assay for the anti-mycobacterial activities and an adapted agar disk diffusion technique for other non-tubercular bacterial strains. The best antibacterial activity (anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis effects) was proved by 9. Compounds 7, 8, and 9 determined blocking of G1 phase. Compound 7 proved to be toxic, inducing apoptosis in 54% of cells after 72 h, an effect that can be predicted by the increased expression of mRNA caspases 3 and 7 after 24 h. The influence of compounds on gene expression of enzymes implicated in drug metabolism indicates that synthesized compounds could be metabolized via other pathways than NAT2, spanning adverse effects of isoniazid. Compound 9 had the best antibacterial activity, being used as a disinfectant agent. Compounds 7, 8, and 9, seemed to have antitumor potential. Further studies on the action mechanism of these compounds on the cell cycle may bring new information regarding their biological activity.

Abstract
Bedaquiline (TMC207), a typical diarylquinoline anti-tuberculosis drug, has been approved by FDA to specifically treat MDR-TB. Herein we describe design, synthesis, and in vitro biological evaluation against Mycobacterium tuberculosis of a series of triaryldimethylaminobutan-2-ol derivatives obtaining from the structural modification of TMC207. Compounds 23, 25, 28, 32, 39 and 43 provided superior anti-mycobacterial activity than positive control PC01 which shows the same configuration and contains TMC207. Compounds 16, 20, 29, 34, 37, 45 and 47 exhibited the similar activity to positive control PC01. Most importantly, the series of compounds showed excellent activity against XDR-Mtb. The result of acute toxicity suggested that this class of triaryldimethylaminobutan-2-ol derivatives should be graded as low. Further SAR analysis indicates that a large steric bulk of triaryl and 7-Br, 3-OCH3 on 1-naphthyl are critical.

Abstract
Two sets of diphenyl ether derivatives incorporating five-membered 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, and their open-chain aryl hydrazone analogs were synthesized in good yields. Most of the synthesized compounds showed promising in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Three diphenyl ether derivatives, namely hydrazide 3, oxadiazole 4 and naphthylarylidene 8g exhibited pronounced activity with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 0.61, 0.86 and 0.99 μg/mL, respectively compared to triclosan (10 μg/mL) and isoniazid (INH) (0.2 μg/mL). Compounds 3, 4, and 8g showed the InhA reductase enzyme inhibition with higher IC50 values (3.28–4.23 µM) in comparison to triclosan (1.10 µM). Correlation between calculated physicochemical parameters and biological activity has been discussed which justifies a strong correlation with respect to the inhibition of InhA reductase enzyme. Molecular modeling and drug-likeness studies showed good agreement with the obtained biological evaluation. The structural and experimental information concerning these three InhA inhibitors will likely contribute to the lead optimization of new antibiotics for M. tuberculosis.

Abstract
Hirsutellide A is nature-derived cyclic hexadepsipeptide with reported antimycobacterial and antiplasmodial activities. To verify its structure, hirsutellide A was synthesized following a solution-phase peptide synthesis approach. A detailed analysis of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the synthesized compound revealed structural variation from what had been originally assigned for hirsutellide A, despite the use of identical building blocks. This variation occurred at the two allo-Ile moieties. To investigate the structure-activity relationship, the depsipeptide and peptide analogues of hirsutellide A were prepared and tested for antimycobacterial and antiplasmodial activities. The compounds displayed antiplasmodial potency against Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 while showing weak or no activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The drug-likeness of the series was assessed through in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) profiling, revealing systematic differences between the pharmacokinetic properties of cyclic hexapeptides and hexadepsipeptides.

Antimycobacterial Activity of Laurinterol and Aplysin from Laurencia johnstonii. Mar Drugs 2020; 18:md18060287.

Abstract
Marine environments represent a great opportunity for the discovery of compounds with a wide spectrum of bioactive properties. Due to their large variety and functions derived from natural selection, marine natural products may allow the identification of novel drugs based not only on newly discovered bioactive metabolites but also on already known compounds not yet thoroughly investigated. Since drug resistance has caused an increase in infections by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria, the re-evaluation of known bioactive metabolites has been suggested as a good approach to addressing this problem. In this sense, this study presents an evaluation of the in vitro effect of laurinterol and aplysin, two brominated sesquiterpenes isolated from Laurencia johnstonii, against nine M. tuberculosis strains and six nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). Laurinterol exhibited good antimycobacterial activity, especially against nontuberculous mycobacteria, being remarkable its effect against Mycobacterium abscessus, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values lower than those of the reference drug imipenem. This study provides further evidence for the antimycobacterial activity of some sesquiterpenes from L. johnstonii, which can be considered interesting lead compounds for the discovery of novel molecules to treat NTM infections.

Abstract
Discovery of new anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs is a time-consuming process due to the slow-growing nature of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). A requirement of biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) facility for performing research associated with Mtb is another limitation for the development of TB drug discovery. In our screening of BSL-1 Mycobacterium spp. against a battery of TB drugs, M. smegmatis (ATCC607) exhibits good agreement with its drug susceptibility against the TB drugs under a low-nutrient culture medium (0.5% Tween 80 in Middlebrook 7H9 broth). M. smegmatis (ATCC607) enters its dormant form in 14 days under a nutrient-deficient condition (a PBS buffer), and shows resistance to a majority of TB drugs, but shows susceptibility to amikacin, capreomycin, ethambutol, and rifampicin (with high concentrations) whose activities against non-replicating (or dormant) Mtb were previously validated.

Abstract
Mycobacteriophages are viruses that infect and kill mycobacteria. The peptidoglycan hydrolase, lysin A (LysA), coded by one of the most potent mycobacteriophages, D29, carries two catalytic domains at its N-terminus and a cell wall-binding domain at its C-terminus. Here, we have explored the importance of the centrally located lysozyme-like catalytic domain (LD) of LysA in phage physiology. We had previously identified an R198A substitution that causes inactivation of the LD when it is present alone on a polypeptide. Here, we show that upon incorporation of the same mutation (i.e. R350A) in full-length LysA, the protein demonstrates substantially reduced activity in vitro, even in the presence of the N-terminal catalytic domain, and has less efficient mycobacterial cell lysis ability when it is expressed in Mycobacterium smegmatis. These data suggest that an active LD is required for the full-length protein to function optimally. Moreover, a mutant D29 phage harbouring this substitution (D29R350A) in its LysA protein shows significantly delayed host M. smegmatis lysis. However, the mutant phage demonstrates an increase in burst size and plaque diameter. Taken together, our data show the importance of an intact LD region in D29 LysA PG hydrolase, and indicate an evolutionary advantage over other phages that lack such a domain in their endolysins.

Abstract
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ser/Thr protein kinases PknA and PknB are essential for growth and have been proposed as possible drug targets. We used a titratable conditional depletion system to investigate the functions of these kinases. Depletion of PknA or PknB or both kinases resulted in growth arrest, shortening of cells, and time-dependent loss of acid-fast staining with a concomitant decrease in mycolate synthesis and accumulation of trehalose monomycolate. Depletion of PknA and/or PknB resulted in markedly increased susceptibility to β-lactam antibiotics, and to the key tuberculosis drug rifampin. Phosphoproteomic analysis showed extensive changes in protein phosphorylation in response to PknA depletion and comparatively fewer changes with PknB depletion. These results identify candidate substrates of each kinase and suggest specific and coordinate roles for PknA and PknB in regulating multiple essential physiologies. These findings support these kinases as targets for new antituberculosis drugs and provide a valuable resource for targeted investigation of mechanisms by which protein phosphorylation regulates pathways required for growth and virulence in M. tuberculosis.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, tuberculosis is still in the top ten causes of death from a single infectious agent, killing more than 1.7 million people worldwide each year. The rising resistance developed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis against currently used antituberculars is an imperative to develop new compounds with potential antimycobacterial activity. As a part of our continuous research on structural derivatives of the first-line antitubercular pyrazinamide, we have designed, prepared, and assessed the in vitro whole cell growth inhibition activity of forty-two novel 5-alkylamino-N-phenylpyrazine-2-carboxamides with various length of the alkylamino chain (propylamino to octylamino) and various simple substituents on the benzene ring. Final compounds were tested against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra and four other mycobacterial strains (M. aurum, M. smegmatis, M. kansasii, M. avium) in a modified Microplate Alamar Blue Assay. We identified several candidate molecules with micromolar MIC against M. tuberculosis H37Ra and low in vitro cytotoxicity in HepG2 cell line, for example, N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-(pentylamino)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (3c, MIC = 3.91 µg/mL or 13.02 µM, SI > 38) and 5-(heptylamino)-N-(p-tolyl)pyrazine-2-carboxamide (4e, MIC = 0.78 µg/mL or 2.39 µM, SI > 20). In a complementary screening, we evaluated the in vitro activity against bacterial and fungal strains of clinical importance. We observed no antibacterial activity and sporadic antifungal activity against the Candida genus.

Abstract
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), each year causing millions of deaths. In this article, we present the synthesis and biological evaluations of new potential antimycobacterial compounds containing a fragment of the first-line antitubercular drug pyrazinamide (PZA), coupled with methyl or ethyl esters of selected amino acids. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated on a variety of (myco)bacterial strains, including Mtb H37Ra, M. smegmatis, M. aurum, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and fungal strains, including Candida albicans and Aspergillus flavus. Emphasis was placed on the comparison of enantiomer activities. None of the synthesized compounds showed any significant activity against fungal strains, and their antibacterial activities were also low, the best minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value was 31.25 µM. However, several compounds presented high activity against Mtb. Overall, higher activity was seen in derivatives containing ʟ-amino acids. Similarly, the activity seems tied to the more lipophilic compounds. The most active derivative contained phenylglycine moiety (PC-ᴅ/ʟ-Pgl-Me, MIC < 1.95 µg/mL). All active compounds possessed low cytotoxicity and good selectivity towards Mtb. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study comparing the activities of the ᴅ- and ʟ-amino acid derivatives of pyrazinamide as potential antimycobacterial compounds.

Abstract
Aims:
The need to find new antimicrobial agents to cope with this phenomenon increases.
Background:
Infection diseases are illness caused by different microorganisms, such as bacteria, among
those caused by resistant bacteria are associated with greater morbidity, mortality and cost of the treatment
than those caused by sensitive bacteria of the same species.
Objective:
Need to find new antimicrobial agents to cope with this phenomenon increases.
Method:
This work carried out the study of biological activities of Cissus incisa, taking account its traditional
use. Three extracts were prepared from the leaves of this plant: hexane, chloroform methanol
(1:1) and aqueous. Their antibacterial and antitubercular activities were evaluated using microdilution
and alamar blue assays; respectively.
Result:
The chloroform/methanol extract (1:1) was the most active of the three tested extracts for antimicrobial
activity. In this way, the extract exhibits a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, against
the Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria tested, with MIC values between 125 to 500 μg/mL.
Conclusion:
This research contributes both to the knowledge of the Mexican flora, as well as the discovery
of potential antibacterial agents derivate from plants.

Abstract
The triazine antitubercular JSF-2019 was of interest due to its in vitro efficacy and the nitro group shared with the clinically relevant delamanid and pretomanid. JSF-2019 undergoes activation requiring F420H2 and one or more nitroreductases in addition to Ddn. An intrabacterial drug metabolism (IBDM) platform was leveraged to demonstrate the system kinetics, evidencing formation of NO⋅ and a des-nitro metabolite. Structure-activity relationship studies focused on improving the solubility and mouse pharmacokinetic profile of JSF-2019 and culminated in JSF-2513, relying on the key introduction of a morpholine. Mechanistic studies with JSF-2019, JSF-2513, and other triazines stressed the significance of achieving potent in vitro efficacy via release of intrabacterial NO⋅ along with inhibition of InhA and, more generally, the FAS-II pathway. This study highlights the importance of probing IBDM and its potential to clarify mechanism of action, which in this case is a combination of NO⋅ release and InhA inhibition.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQ) form the backbone in experimental treatment regimens against drug-susceptible tuberculosis. However, little is known on whether the genetic variation present in natural populations of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) affects the evolution of FQ-resistance (FQ-R). To investigate this question, we used nine genetically distinct drug-susceptible clinical isolates of Mtb and measured their frequency of resistance to the FQ ofloxacin (OFX) in vitro. We found that the Mtb genetic background led to differences in the frequency of OFX-resistance (OFX-R) that spanned two orders of magnitude and substantially modulated the observed mutational profiles for OFX-R. Further, in vitro assays showed that the genetic background also influenced the minimum inhibitory concentration and the fitness effect conferred by a given OFX-R mutation. To test the clinical relevance of our in vitro work, we surveyed the mutational profile for FQ-R in publicly available genomic sequences from clinical Mtb isolates, and found substantial Mtb lineage-dependent variability. Comparison of the clinical and the in vitro mutational profiles for FQ-R showed that 51% and 39% of the variability in the clinical frequency of FQ-R gyrA mutation events in Lineage 2 and Lineage 4 strains, respectively, can be attributed to how Mtb evolves FQ-R in vitro. As the Mtb genetic background strongly influenced the evolution of FQ-R in vitro, we conclude that the genetic background of Mtb also impacts the evolution of FQ-R in the clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near to 5-7 million people are infected with T. cruzi in the world, and about 10,000 people per year die of problems associated with this disease. METHODS Herein, the synthesis, antitrypanosomal and antimycobacterial activities of seventeen coumarinic N-acylhydrazonic derivatives have been reported. RESULTS These compounds were synthesized using methodology with reactions global yields ranging from 46%-70%. T. cruzi in vitro effects were evaluated against trypomastigote and amastigote, forming M. tuberculosis activity towards H37Rv sensitive strain and resistant strains. DISCUSSION Against T. cruzi, the more active compounds revealed only moderate activity IC50/96h~20 μM for both trypomastigotes and amastigotes intracellular forms. (E)-2-oxo-N'- (3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene)-2H-chromene-3-carbohydrazide showed meaningful activity in INH resistant/RIP resistant strain. CONCLUSION These compound acting as multitarget could be good leads for the development of new trypanocidal and bactericidal agents.

Increased prevalence of levofloxacin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in China is associated with specific mutations within the gyrA gene. Int J Infect Dis 2020; 92:241-246. [PMID: 31978580 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijid.2020.01.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2019] [Revised: 01/02/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the prevalence of levofloxacin (LFX) resistance and the population structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) with different mutations conferring LFX resistance between 2005 and 2015. METHODS A total 542 MTB isolates were randomly selected from pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) patients in 2005 and 2015 and analyzed regarding minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDR). RESULTS One hundred and eleven of the 542 MTB isolates analyzed (20.5%) were resistant to LFX. There were 42 and 69 LFX-resistant isolates from 2005 and 2015, respectively, and MIC high-level LFX resistance was significantly higher in 2015 (40.6%, 28/69) than in 2005 (16.7%, 7/42) (p = 0.02). There were 87 (78.4%) mutations of these 111 LFX-resistant isolates. In addition, a significant difference in proportion was observed in the isolates with mutations in codon 90 of the gyrA gene between 2005 and 2015 (11.9% in 2005 versus 29.0% in 2015, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS There was an alarming increase in prevalence of LFX-resistant TB in China between 2005 and 2015. This dynamic change is mostly attributed to the increase in high-level LFX resistance. Moreover, a significant difference was noted in the proportion of LFX-resistant isolates harboring specific mutations within the gyrA gene between 2005 and 2015.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Based on bioisosteric similarities with thiacetazone, a series of 7-chloro-4-aminoquinoline derivatives have been designed and synthesized. The target compounds were elucidated by NMR, mass, and FTIR spectral data. All synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB), and human dermal fibroblast cell lines were used to assess toxicity of selected ligands.
Results
All of the designed compounds showed inhibition of MTB with MIC of 1.56–50 μM. Among the tested compounds, 7c and 7g proved to be most potent MTB inhibitors (MIC = 1.56 μM).
Conclusions
The outcome of present study suggests that most of the synthesized compounds are sensitive to Mycobacterium tuberculosis and showed acceptable range for molecular parameters. Thus, 7-chloro-4-aminoquinolines could be a useful lead for the development of new MTB inhibitory agents.

Abstract
Aim: Over the last decades, few significant achievements have been made in tuberculosis (TB) therapy. As a result, there is an urgent need for new anti-TB drugs. Results: Two new classes of bis-(imidazole/benzimidazole)-pyridine derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antimycobacterial activity. Conclusion: The synthesis is efficient and straightforward, involving only two successive N-alkylations. The anti-TB assay reveal that our compounds have an excellent anti-TB activity against both replicating and nonreplicating Mtb, are not cytotoxic, exhibited a very good intracellular activity and are active against drug-resistant Mtb strains, some compounds have a bactericidal mechanism. The absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity studies performed for one compound are promising, indicating that it is a good candidate for a future drug.

Abstract
Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), kills 1.6 million people annually. To bridge the gap between structure- and cell-based drug discovery strategies, we are pioneering a computer-aided discovery paradigm that merges structure-based virtual screening with ligand-based, machine learning methods trained with cell-based data. This approach successfully identified N-(3-methoxyphenyl)-7-nitrobenzo[c][1,2,5]oxadiazol-4-amine (JSF-2164) as an inhibitor of purified InhA with whole-cell efficacy versus in vitro cultured M. tuberculosis. When the intrabacterial drug metabolism (IBDM) platform was leveraged, mechanistic studies demonstrated that JSF-2164 underwent a rapid F420H2-dependent biotransformation within M. tuberculosis to afford intrabacterial nitric oxide and two amines, identified as JSF-3616 and JSF-3617. Thus, metabolism of JSF-2164 obscured the InhA inhibition phenotype within cultured M. tuberculosis. This study demonstrates a new docking/Bayesian computational strategy to combine cell- and target-based drug screening and the need to probe intrabacterial metabolism when clarifying the antitubercular mechanism of action.

Abstract
Background Rapid diagnosis of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a challenge in low-income countries. Phenotypic drug susceptibility testing using Sensititre® MycoTB assay and the resazurin microtitre plate assay (REMA) are relatively new innovative methods to determine drug susceptibility. Objectives This study aimed to determine the performance of the Sensititre and REMA for M. tuberculosis drug susceptibility testing in a high-volume tuberculosis reference laboratory. Methods A laboratory-based study was performed at the Inkosi Albert Luthuli Central Hospital Tuberculosis Laboratory from January 2014 to June 2015. The Sensititre® MycoTB plate and REMA were compared to the gold standard agar proportion method (APM) using 134 stored isolates. Results Agreement between the Sensititre® MycoTB plate and APM was observed with 98% sensitivity, 82% specificity, 94% positive and 93% negative predictive values of the Sensititre® MycoTB assay for the detection of rifampicin resistance and 97%, 96%, 99% and 88% for isoniazid resistance. Good categorical agreement between the REMA and the APM was observed among isolates with 89% sensitivity, 68% specificity, 89% positive and 68% negative predictive value for the detection of rifampicin resistance and 95%, 96%, 99% and 81% for isoniazid resistance. Results for the second-line drugs showed elevated minimum inhibitory concentrations for multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis isolates. Conclusion The REMA and Sensititre® MycoTB plate are attractive alternatives to the gold standard APM for the phenotypic detection of M. tuberculosis drug resistance.

Development of (4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-tetrazol-5-amine regioisomers as a new class of selective antitubercular agents. Eur J Med Chem 2019; 186:111882.

Abstract
A series of halogenated (4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-tetrazol-5-amine regioisomers (1a-9a, 1b-9b) were synthesized from their corresponding thiourea analogues (1-9). The synthesis pathway was confirmed by an X-ray crystallographic studies of 1a, 1b and 5a. Title derivatives were tested for their in vitro antitubercular activity against standard, "wild-type" and atypical mycobacteria. The highest therapeutic potential was attributed to isomeric N-(bromophenyl)tetrazoles 8a and 9a. Their growth-inhibitory effect against multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Spec. 210 was 8-16-fold stronger than that of the first-line tuberculostatics. Other new tetrazole-derived compounds were also more or equally effective towards that pathogen comparing to the established pharmaceuticals. Among non-tuberculous strains, Mycobacterium scrofulaceum was the most susceptible to the presence of the majority of tetrazole derivatives. The synergistic interaction was found between 9a and streptomycin, as well as the additivity of both 8a and 9a in pairs with isoniazid, rifampicin and ethambutol. None of the studied compounds displayed antibacterial or cytotoxic properties against normal and cancer cell lines, which indicated their highly selective antimycobacterial effects.

Abstract
Background Nowadays, tuberculosis (TB) is one of the top ten leading causes of mortality worldwide. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) - and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) - Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) is identified as one of the most challenging threats to TB control. Thus, new and safe nano-drugs are urgently required for the elimination of TB. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-bacterial effects of Ag, ZnO, and Ag-ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) on MDR- and XDR-M. tuberculosis. Materials and methods In this study, Ag, ZnO, and Ag-ZnO NPs were synthesized by the chemical reduction and chemical deposition methods. NPs were characterized using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy. Then, various dilutions of NPs were prepared and their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) were determined against M. tuberculosis strains using the broth microdilution and agar microdilution methods. Finally, MTT test and cell culture assay were performed. Results The effects of concentrations of 1-128 µg/mL Ag NPs, ZnO NPs, 2Ag: 8ZnO, 8Ag:2ZnO, 3Ag: 7ZnO, 7Ag:3ZnO, and 5Ag:5ZnO on M. tuberculosis strains were investigated. MIC results showed the inhibitory effect of 1 µg/mL of all NPs against XDR-M. tuberculosis. In addition, the concentrations of 4 µg/mL Ag, 8 µg/mL 5Ag:5ZnO, 8 µg/mL 7Ag:3ZnO, 32 µg/mL 3Ag:7ZnO, 16 µg/mL 8Ag:2ZnO, and 64 µg/mL 2Ag:8ZnO inhibited MDR-M. tuberculosis growth. However, MBC results indicated the inability of Ag, ZnO and Ag-ZnO NPs, either in combination or alone, to kill MDR- or XDR-M. tuberculosis. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the effects of Ag and ZnO NPs against MDR and XDR strains of M. tuberculosis. According to the results, Ag and ZnO NPs showed bacteriostatic effects against drug-resistant strains of M. tuberculosis. Therefore, these NPs may be considered as promising anti-mycobacterial nano-drugs. However, further studies are required to affirm the bactericidal effects of these NPs against TB.

Potential impact of efflux pump genes in mediating rifampicin resistance in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from India. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0223163.

Abstract
Despite the consideration of chromosomal mutations as the major cause of rifampicin (RIF) resistance in M. tuberculosis, the role of other mechanisms such as efflux pumps cannot be ruled out. We evaluated the role of four efflux pumps viz., MmpL2 (Rv0507), MmpL5 (Rv0676c), Rv0194 and Rv1250 in providing RIF resistance in M. tuberculosis. The real time expression of the efflux pumps was analyzed in 16 RIF resistant and 11 RIF susceptible clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis after exposure to RIF. Expression of efflux pumps in these isolates was also correlated with mutations in the rpoB gene and MICs of RIF in the presence and absence of efflux pump inhibitors. Under RIF stress, Rv0194 was induced in 8/16 (50%) RIF resistant and 2/11 (18%) RIF susceptible isolates; mmpL5 in 7/16 (44%) RIF resistant and 1/11 (9%) RIF susceptible isolates; Rv1250 in 4/16 (25%) RIF resistant and 2/11 (18%) RIF susceptible isolates; and mmpL2 was upregulated in 2/16 (12.5%) RIF resistant and 1/11 (9%) RIF susceptible isolates. This preliminary study did not find any association between Rv0194, MmpL2, MmpL5 and Rv1250 and RIF resistance. However, the overexpression of Rv0194 and mmpL5 in greater number of RIF resistant isolates as compared to RIF susceptible isolates and expression of Rv0194 in wild type (WT) resistant isolates suggests a need for further investigations.

Abstract
Tuberculostatic drugs are the most common drug groups with global hepatotoxicity. Awareness of potentially severe hepatotoxic reactions is vital, as hepatic impairment can be a devastating and often fatal condition. The treatment problems that may arise, within this class of medicines, are mainly of two types: adverse reactions (collateral, toxic or hypersensitive reactions) and the initial or acquired resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to one or more antituberculosis drugs. Prevention of adverse reactions, increase treatment adherence and success rates, providing better control of tuberculosis (TB). In this regard, obtaining new drugs with low toxicity and high tuberculostatic potential is essential. Thus, in this work, we have designed or synthesized new derivatives of isoniazid (INH), such as new Isonicotinoylhydrazone (INH-a, INH-b and INH-c). These derivatives demonstrated good biocompatibility, antimicrobial property similar to that of parent isoniazid and last but not least, a significantly improved Pharmacotoxicological profile compared to that of isoniazid.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the critical concentration of rifabutin (RFB) for susceptibility testing against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) on Löwenstein-Jensen (L-J) medium using the proportion method. METHODS We used 47 strains were used to determine the critical concentration of RFB. The microplate antimicrobial assay (MABA) was used as a reference method. We used 160 strains to evaluate its correlation with the classification results derived from the MABA method. We performed antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) against RFB and rifampin (RIF) for 2748 other strains using the proportion method on L-J medium. RESULTS The determined critical concentration for RFB was 20 μg per mL. Identical classification as susceptible or resistant was observed in 93.8% and 92.5% strains for RFB and RIF, respectively, using the 2 different methods. The cross-resistance ratio between RFB and RIF was 72.7% in the 2748 Mtb strains. CONCLUSIONS We determined that a critical concentration of 20 μg per mL RFB was reliable for AST of Mtb.

Abstract
Ternary solution (TSOL) is a novel Zn chelate-based systemic antimicrobial formulation designed for treating citrus bacterial pathogens 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' and Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri. TSOL is a component of MS3T, a novel multifunctional surface/sub-surface/systemic therapeutic formulation. Antimicrobial activity of TSOL was compared with the antimicrobial compound ZnO against X. citri subsp. citri and 'Ca. L. asiaticus' surrogate Liberibacter crescens in batch cultures. X. citri subsp. citri and L. crescens were also introduced into microfluidic chambers, and the inhibitory action of TSOL against biofilm formation was evaluated. The minimum inhibitory concentration of TSOL for both X. citri subsp. citri and L. crescens was 40ppm. TSOL was bactericidal to X. citri subsp. citri and L. crescens above 150 ppm and 200 ppm, respectively. On the contrary, ZnO was more effective as a bactericidal agent against L. crescens than X. citri subsp. citri. TSOL was more effective in controlling growth and biofilm formation of X. citri subsp. citri in batch cultures compared to ZnO. Time-lapse video imaging microscopy showed that biofilm formation of X. citri subsp. citri was inhibited in microfluidic chambers treated with 60 ppm TSOL. TSOL also inhibited further growth of already formed X. citri subsp. citri and L. crescens biofilms in microfluidic chambers. Leaf spraying of TSOL showed higher plant uptake and systemic movement in citrus (Citrus reshni) plants compared to that of ZnO, suggesting that TSOL is a promising antimicrobial compound to control vascular plant pathogens such as 'Ca. L. asiaticus'.

Abstract
Background and Introduction:Mefloquine, a drug used to prevent and treat malaria is described possessing activity against the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) as well as against multidrugresistant tuberculosis (MDR) and other types of bacteria. Despite their importance, few compounds based on the Mefloquine nucleus have been synthesized and evaluated against TB.Materials and Methods:For the synthesis of all the compounds based on the Mefloquine nucleus we used a synthetic route which utilized the key derivative 4-methoxy-2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)quinoline 2 as starting material. The compounds 3 (a-c), 4 (a-b) were synthesized after one step by reaction of 2 with appropriate amines substituted. The chloro derivatives 5 and 6 were obtained from compounds 4b and 4a by treatment with SOCl2 in CH2Cl2 at reflux in 75 and 80% yield, respectively. The analogue 6 was converted to 7 after treatment with ethanolamine under heating at 90oC in 64% yield and to the azido derivative 8 in 56% after reaction with sodium azide in MeOH at reflux for 2 h. The analogue 9 was obtained after reaction of 5 with ethanolamine at 90oC for 1 h in 90% yield. All the new compounds were identified by detailed spectral data, including 1H NMR, 13C NMR and high resolution mass spectra. All the compound were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity against sensitive Mycobacterium tuberculosis ATCC 27294, using the microplate Alamar Blue assay (MABA). The more active compounds 3c, 7, and 9 were also evaluated against resistant strain SR 2571/0215 (resistant to Rifampicin and Isoniazid) by above method. All compounds were tested against three cancer cell lines: SF-295 (glioblastoma), HCT-116 (colon) and PC-3 (prostate) using the MTT assay.Results:All the planned ten compounds were synthetically obtained in good global yield, displaying activity against sensitive Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, with exception of one, with MIC values between 37.2 and 154.8 µM. The compounds 3c (37.2 µM), 7 (68.1 µM) and 9 (65.6 µM) showed the highest activity in this series with MIC values similar when compare to the standard Mefloquine (30 – 60 µM), being 3c the most potent. The more active compounds 3c, 7, and 9 were also evaluated against resistant strain, displaying MIC of 37.2, 136.2 and 65.6 µM, respectively. All compounds were tested against three cancer cell lines and showed low cytotoxicity.Conclusion:All synthesized compounds, with the exception of 5, exhibited activity against the Mtb. Compound 3c was the most potent against resistant and sensitive Mtb in this series, with MIC value of 37.2 µM. All compounds showed low cytotoxicity. These findings could be considered a good model to develop possible lead compounds in the fight against TB based on Mefloquine nucleus.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis adenosine kinase (MtbAdoK) is an essential enzyme of Mtb and forms part of the purine salvage pathway within mycobacteria. Evidence suggests that the purine salvage pathway might play a crucial role in Mtb survival and persistence during its latent phase of infection. In these studies, we adopted a structural approach to the discovery, structure-guided design, and synthesis of a series of adenosine analogues that displayed inhibition constants ranging from 5 to 120 nM against the enzyme. Two of these compounds exhibited low micromolar activity against Mtb with half maximal effective inhibitory concentrations of 1.7 and 4.0 μM. Our selectivity and preliminary pharmacokinetic studies showed that the compounds possess a higher degree of specificity against MtbAdoK when compared with the human counterpart and are well tolerated in rodents, respectively. Finally, crystallographic studies showed the molecular basis of inhibition, potency, and selectivity and revealed the presence of a potentially therapeutically relevant cavity unique to the MtbAdoK homodimer.

Abstract
Infection with Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (M. paratuberculosis) is a widespread problem in the United States and worldwide, and it constitutes a significant health problem for dairy animals with a potential effect on human health. Mycobacterium paratuberculosis is easily transmitted through consumption of contaminated milk; therefore, finding safe methods to reduce the mycobacterial load in milk and other dairy products is important to the dairy industry. The main objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of natural products, such as bacteriocins designated as "generally regarded as safe" (GRAS), on the survival of M. paratuberculosis in milk. Commercially synthesized bacteriocin (nisin) was used to examine its effect on the survival of laboratory and field isolates of M. paratuberculosis and in contaminated milk. Surprisingly, nisin had a higher minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against the laboratory strain (M. paratuberculosis K10), at 500 U/mL, than against field isolates (e.g., M. paratuberculosis 4B and JTC 1281), at 15 U/mL. In milk, growth of M. paratuberculosis was inhibited after treatment with levels of nisin that are permissible in human food at 4°C and 37°C. Using both fluorescent and scanning electron microscopy, we were able to identify defects in the bacterial cell walls of treated cultures. Our analysis indicated that nisin reduced membrane integrity by forming pores in the mycobacterial cell wall, thereby decreasing survival of M. paratuberculosis. Thus, nisin treatment of milk could be implemented as a control measure to reduce M. paratuberculosis secreted in milk from infected herds. Nisin could also be used to reduce M. paratuberculosis in colostrum given to calves from infected animals, improving biosecurity control in dairy herds affected by Johne's disease.
