Abstract
A series of small-molecule fluoroquinolones were synthesized, characterized by HRMS and NMR spectroscopy, and screened for their antibacterial activity against MRSA, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli as model G+/G− pathogens. Compounds 2-e, 3-e, and 4-e were more potent than the reference drug balofloxacin against MRSA and P. aeruginosa (MIC values of 0.0195 and 0.039 μg/ml for 2-e, 0.039 and 0.078 μg/ml for each of 3-e and 4-e, respectively). Analysis of the time-dependent antibacterial effect of compound 2-e toward MRSA showed that in the early logarithmic growth phase, bactericidal effects occurred, while in the late logarithmic growth phase, bacterial inhibition occurred because of concentration effects and possibly the development of drug resistance. Compound 2-e exhibited low toxicity toward normal mammalian cell lines 3T3 and L-02 and tumor cell lines A549, H520, BEL-7402, and MCF-7. The compound was not hemolytic. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that compound 2-e could effectively destroy the membrane and wall of MRSA cells, resulting in the outflow of the cellular contents. Docking studies indicated the good binding profile of these compounds toward DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. ADMET’s prediction showed that most of the synthesized compounds followed Lipinski’s “rule of five” and possessed good drug-like properties. Our data suggested that compound 2-e exhibited potent anti-MRSA activity and is worthy of further investigation.

TCM-Based Therapy as a Rescue Therapy for Re-Eradication of Helicobacter pylori Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:5626235. [PMID: 35251209 PMCID: PMC8894008 DOI: 10.1155/2022/5626235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2021] [Revised: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
The increase in drug-resistant strains poses a severe challenge for Helicobacter pylori (Hp) treatment, and the failure of traditional triple or bismuth quadruple therapy makes it difficult to eradicate Hp. Tailored therapies should be expanded, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) may provide the potential regimen. The aim of the present study is to systematically compare TCM-based therapy (TCM combined with Western medicine) and Western medicine as a rescue therapy for Hp re-eradication. Studies through June 12, 2021, with keywords “Helicobacter pylori,” “medicine, Chinese traditional,” or “rescue treatment” and their related expressions were retrieved from PubMed, SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang databases. Randomized clinical trials based on PICOS (population, intervention, comparators, outcomes, and study design) eligibility criteria that evaluated the efficacy and safety of integrated therapy on Hp re-eradication were included. The extracted contents included the demographic data of the participants, specific treatment measures, and the results of outcome indicators and safety indicators. Review Manager 5.3 software was used to perform this meta-analysis. Outcome measures including the HP re-eradication rate, symptom remission rate, and adverse effects were seriously analyzed. Under the guide of PRISMA, 18 studies were finally included. Pooled results showed significant differences in eradication rate between integrated and Western medicine therapy in intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis (OR = 2.21, 95% CI: (1.74, 2.81), P < 0.01). Symptom remission is higher in the administration of integrated therapy than in the administration of Western medicine therapy (OR = 2.45, 95% CI: (1.78, 3.37), P < 0.01). It is also indicated that integrated therapy showed significantly less adverse effects (OR = 0.60, 95% CI: (0.42, 0.84), P < 0.01. In conclusion, compared with Western medicine therapy, integrated therapy yields a higher eradication rate and acceptable safety profiles.

Zhao H, Yan P, Zhang N, Feng L, Chu X, Cui G, Qin Y, Yang C, Wang S, Yang K. The recurrence rate of Helicobacter pylori in recent 10 years: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Helicobacter 2021; 26:e12852. [PMID: 34510644 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Revised: 08/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To update and evaluate the recurrence rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication therapy in recent 10 years. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, and Web of science was performed to identify the studies of recurrence rate of H. pylori published from 2010 to 2019. Stata 15.0 was used for analysis. RESULTS A total of 31 studies (16,797 participants) were analyzed. The recurrence rate of H. pylori was 9% (95% CI, 8-11%), and it showed an upward trend with the time elapsed after eradication. The annual recurrence rate was 4%, and there was a stable trend with the time elapsed after eradication. Subgroup analyses showed that the recurrence rate of H. pylori eradication by triple therapy was higher than that of quadruple therapy (14% [95% CI, 9-19] vs 12% [95% CI, 7-17]); urban was higher than that of rural (8% [95% CI, 1-14] vs 5% [95% CI, 1-9]); males were higher than that of females (11% [95% CI, 8-14] vs 10% [95% CI, 7-14]); Europe had the highest recurrence rate (16% [95% CI, -1 to 42]), and Africa had the lowest (1% [95% CI, 0-2]). The recurrence rate ofH. pylori was inversely related to the human development index. CONCLUSIONS The recurrence rate of H. pylori showed an increasing trend in recent 10 years, and it is still a knotty public health problem worldwide. The recurrence rate of H. pylori showed an upward trend with the time elapsed after eradication, and the recurrence rate of H. pylori varies by area, gender, and eradication methods.

Bornschein J, Pritchard DM. Myths and misconceptions in the management of Helicobacter pylori infection. Frontline Gastroenterol 2021; 13:245-253. [PMID: 35493626 PMCID: PMC8996102 DOI: 10.1136/flgastro-2021-101826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/20/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The discovery of Helicobacter pylori infection in 1984 revolutionised the management of several common upper gastrointestinal diseases. However, some of the clinical practices that were adopted following discovery of this organism have become less appropriate over the intervening years. This article discusses five 'myths and misconceptions' that we believe have now emerged and which we argue need re-evaluation. Although the prevalence of H. pylori infection is decreasing in some developed countries, it remains a huge global problem and the most serious consequence of infection, gastric adenocarcinoma, is still a major cause of mortality. The epidemiology of H. pylori-related diseases is also changing and careful testing remains crucially important, especially in patients with peptic ulceration. Eradication of H. pylori infection has also become much more difficult over recent years as a result of the widespread acquisition of antibiotic resistance. Routine assessment of the success of eradication should therefore now be performed. Finally, there has been increased awareness about the role of H. pylori in the multistep pathway of gastric carcinogenesis, about the opportunities to prevent cancer development by eradicating this infection in some individuals and about detecting high-risk preneoplastic changes via endoscopic surveillance. The discovery of H. pylori was rightly honoured by the award of the Nobel prize for Physiology and Medicine in 2005. However, unless we re-evaluate and update the ways in which we manage H. pylori infection, much of the fantastic progress that has been made in this field of medicine may tragically be lost once again.

[PMID: 34063624 PMCID: PMC8147614 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics10050525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Background/Aims: Curing Helicobacter pylori infection remains challenging for clinicians, as no proposed first-line therapy achieves bacterial eradication in all treated patients so that several patients need two or more consecutive treatments. Bacterial culture with antibiotics susceptibility testing is largely unachievable in Italy, and empiric second-line and rescue therapies are generally used. This study aimed to identify what eradication regimens perform better in Italy, following first-line therapy failure. Methods: We performed a literature search on PubMed for studies on standard therapy regimens used as second-line or rescue treatments performed in adult patients. Studies including modified drug combinations were not considered. Both intention-to-treat and per- protocol analyses were computed for each therapy subgroup. Results: Data from 35 studies with a total of 4830 patients were eventually considered. As a second-line therapy, Pylera® (90.6%) and a sequential regimen (89.8%) achieved eradication rates significantly higher than other therapies. For third-line therapy, a levofloxacin-based regimen and Pylera® achieved comparable eradication rates (88.2% vs. 84.7%; p = 0.2). Among therapies used as fourth (or more) attempts, Pylera® and a rifabutin-based therapy achieved 77.4% and 66.4% cure rates, respectively (p = 0.013). A therapy sequence based on the type of first-line therapy used was proposed. Conclusions: Data obtained through our review indicate that standard therapies for H. pylori eradication can be used when following an appropriate sequence, allowing clinicians to improve the cure rate without resorting to bacterial culture.
