Abstract
Antibacterial discovery efforts have lagged far behind the need for new antibiotics. An approach that has gained popularity recently is targeting bacterial phospholipid membranes. We leveraged the differences between bacterial and mammalian phospholipid compositions to develop a high-throughput screen that identifies agents that selectively disrupt bacterial membranes while leaving mammalian membranes intact. This approach was used to screen 4480 compounds representing a subset of the Maybridge HitFinderTM V.11 Collection and the Prestwick Chemical Drug Library®. The screen identified 35 "positives" (0.8% hit rate) that preferentially damage bacterial model membranes. Among these, an antimalarial compound, mefloquine, and an aminoglycoside, neomycin, were identified. Further investigation of mefloquine's activity against Staphylococcus aureus showed that it has little antibiotic activity on its own but can alter membrane fluidity, thereby potentiating a β-lactam antibiotic, oxacillin, against both methicillin-susceptible and methicillin-resistant S. aureus. This study indicates that our cell-free screening approach is a promising platform for discovering bacterial membrane disruptors as antibacterials antibiotic adjuvants.

Abstract
Exposure to aminoglycoside antibiotics can lead to the generation of toxic levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within mechanosensory hair cells of the inner ear that have been implicated in hearing and balance disorders. Better understanding of the origin of aminoglycoside-induced ROS could focus the development of therapies aimed at preventing this event. In this work, we used the zebrafish lateral line system to monitor the dynamic behavior of mitochondrial and cytoplasmic oxidation occurring within the same dying hair cell following exposure to aminoglycosides. The increased oxidation observed in both mitochondria and cytoplasm of dying hair cells was highly correlated with mitochondrial calcium uptake. Application of the mitochondrial uniporter inhibitor Ru360 reduced mitochondrial and cytoplasmic oxidation, suggesting that mitochondrial calcium drives ROS generation during aminoglycoside-induced hair cell death. Furthermore, targeting mitochondria with free radical scavengers conferred superior protection against aminoglycoside exposure compared with identical, untargeted scavengers. Our findings suggest that targeted therapies aimed at preventing mitochondrial oxidation have therapeutic potential to ameliorate the toxic effects of aminoglycoside exposure.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed at further increasing the pyruvate productivity of a multi-vitamin auxotrophic yeast Torulopsis glabrata by redirecting ATP production from oxidative phosphorylation to substrate-level phosphorylation. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined two strategies to decrease the activity of F0F1-ATPase. The strategies were to inhibit F0F1-ATPase activity by addition of oligomycin, or to disrupt F0F1-ATPase by screening neomycin-resistant mutant. The addition of 0.05 mmol l(-1) oligomycin to the culture broth of T. glabrata CCTCC M202019 resulted in a significantly decreased intracellular ATP level (35.7%) and a significantly increased glucose consumption rate (49.7%). A neomycin-resistant mutant N07 was screened and selected after nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis of the parent strain T. glabrata CCTCC M202019. Compared with the parent strain, the F0F1-ATPase activity of the mutant N07 decreased about 65%. As a consequence, intracellular ATP level of the mutant N07 decreased by 24%, which resulted in a decreased growth rate and growth yield. As expected, glucose consumption rate and pyruvate productivity of the mutant N07 increased by 34% and 42.9%, respectively. Consistently, the activities of key glycolytic enzymes of the mutant N07, including phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, increased by 63.7%, 28.8% and 14.4%, respectively. In addition, activities of the key enzymes involved in electron transfer chain of the mutant N07 also increased. CONCLUSIONS Impaired oxidative phosphorylation in T. glabrata leads to a decreased intracellular ATP production, thereby increasing the glycolytic flux. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The strategy of redirecting ATP production from oxidative phosphorylation to substrate-level phosphorylation provides an alternative approach to enhance the glycolytic flux in eukaryotic micro-organisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is expressed in the kidney. The receptor plays a major role in gentamicin ototoxicity. We assessed the role of the renal NMDA receptor subunits NR1 and NR2C in a model of gentamicin nephrotoxicity. METHODS Rats were exposed to either saline (control), high-dose, short-term gentamicin, or short-term gentamicin plus the NMDA antagonist MK-801 (short-term gentamicin + MK-801) for 3 days. RESULTS Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) revealed that NR1 mRNA expression was significantly higher (P= 0.03) in the renal cortex of short-term gentamicin rats. NR2C subunit mRNA expression was unaltered in short-term gentamicin rats. Western blot analysis revealed that NR1 (P= 0.009) and NR2C (P= 0.003) protein abundance was significantly higher in the renal cortex short-term gentamicin rats. We assessed two potential intracellular pathways that may mediate short-term gentamicin/NMDA. Calpain I and II expression was similar in short-term gentamicin and control rats. Endothelin type B receptor (ETBR) expression was significantly increased in the renal cortex of short-term gentamicin rats (P= 0.0003), and urinary nitrite concentration (reflecting nitric oxide) was significantly increased in short-term gentamicin rats (P= 0.03). Serum creatinine was significantly elevated in short-term gentamicin animals (P= 0.03), and this increase was attenuated in short-term gentamicin + MK-801 rats. Blood pressure was higher in short-term gentamicin rats; this was attenuated in short-term gentamicin + MK-801 rats. Urine pH was significantly lower in short-term gentamicin (P < 0.0001) rats; this was reversed in short-term gentamicin + MK-801 (P= 0.005) rats. Urinary nitrite was significantly higher in short-term gentamicin rats; this was normalized in short-term gentamicin + MK-801 rats. MK-801 alone had no effect on clinical parameters. CONCLUSION NMDA receptor subunit expression is increased in short-term gentamicin animals, and the receptor likely mediates cell damage via the endothelin-ETBR-nitric oxide pathway. NMDA antagonism ameliorated renal damage after exposure to short-term gentamicin.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been involved in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) reduction observed after gentamicin treatment. trans-Resveratrol (TR), a natural hydroxystilbene, has been identified to be a potent inhibitor of ROS production. The aim of this work has been to study whether TR has a protective effect on gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity in vivo and the effect of TR on lipid peroxidation and the oxidative stress induced by gentamicin. Animals that received a daily intraperitoneal injection of gentamicin (100 mg/kg body weight) showed lower GFR and renal blood flow (RBF) and higher urinary excretion of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) than control rats. Rats receiving TR together with gentamicin showed higher GFR and RBF and lower NAG urinary excretion than rats receiving gentamicin alone. Moreover, renal lipid peroxidation increased in rats receiving gentamicin alone, and this increase was prevented by the administration of TR. The concentration in plasma of antioxidants was higher in the group that received TR with gentamicin than in the gentamicin and control groups. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase were higher in rats treated with gentamicin than in control rats and were reduced by the treatment with TR. This study demonstrates an improvement in renal function in response to the administration of TR in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity. At least a part of this effect of TR could be based on its antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Clusterin is a heterodimeric secreted glycoprotein that is upregulated after acute renal injury. In aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity, clusterin is induced in the tubular epithelium and increased levels are found in the urine. In this study, we developed an in vitro model of gentamicin-induced cytotoxicity in renal proximal tubule cells and tested whether clusterin protected these cells from injury. LLC-PK(1) cells were incubated with varying concentrations of gentamicin in serum-free media, and cytotoxicity was quantified by lactate dehydrogenase release and confirmed by vital dye exclusion. A dose-dependent increase in cytotoxicity occurred with gentamicin concentrations up to 27 mg/ml. Clusterin decreased cytotoxicity in a dose- and time-dependent manner at 6, 12, and 24 h, whereas albumin, used as a control protein, had no effect. In contrast to the aminoglycoside model, when cells were injured by depletion of ATP, clusterin had only a minimally protective effect. LLC-PK(1) cells did not express megalin, a receptor that can mediate the uptake of both clusterin and aminoglycosides into proximal tubule cells. Uptake of gentamicin into LLC-PK(1) cells was observed despite the absence of megalin. In conclusion, clusterin specifically protects against gentamicin-induced renal tubular cell injury by a megalin-independent mechanism.

Abstract
Patch clamp recordings were obtained from isolated cochlear efferent nerve terminals. The effect of aminoglycoside antibiotics on single maxi-K+ channels was determined. At positive voltages (cytosol with respect to extracellular side), neomycin, streptomycin, and kanamycin significantly reduced the single channel current amplitude of the maxi-K+ channel from the cytosolic side. The IC50 for neomycin was 9.10(-4) M from the cytosolic side and >> 10(-3) M from the extracellular side. Streptomycin and kanamycin were less potent. No significant difference in inhibition of the single channel current amplitude by 2.5.10(-4) M cytosolic neomycin was observed between 7.10(-4) M and 10(-6) M free cytosolic Ca2+. Neomycin had no significant effect on the open probability of the maxi-K+ channel either from the cytosolic or from the extracellular side. These findings demonstrate that the maxi-K+ channel in cochlear efferent nerve terminals can be a site of action for aminoglycoside antibiotics.

Abstract
The inositol phospholipids, phosphatidylinositol monophosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP(2)), have been shown to increase the vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity of plant plasma membranes (AR Memon, Q Chen, WF Boss [1989] Biochem Biophys Res Commun 162: 1295-1301). In this paper, we show the effect of various concentrations of phosphatidyinositol, PIP, and PIP(2) on the plasma membrane vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity. PIP and PIP(2) at concentrations of 10 nanomoles per 30 microgram membrane protein per milliliter of reaction mixture caused a twofold and 1.8-fold increase in the ATPase activity, respectively. The effect of these negatively charged phospholipids on the ATPase activity was inhibited by adding the positively charged aminoglycoside, neomycin. Neomycin did not affect the endogenous plasma membrane ATPase activity in the absence of exogenous lipids.

Abstract
Treating carrot (Daucus carota L.) suspension culture cells with a mixture of cell wall degrading enzymes, Driselase, resulted in an increase in the percentage of [(3)H]phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate. Analysis of the lipid kinase activities in the isolated plasma membranes after whole cell treatment indicated that treatment with Driselase (2% weight/volume; the equivalent of 340 units per milliliter of hemicellulase and 400 units per milliliter of cellulase activity) or treatment with hemicellulase (31.7% weight/volume, 20.7 units per milliliter) resulted in an increase in the inositol phospholipid kinase activity. However, treatment with cellulase alone had no effect at 0.5% (weight/volume, 17.2 units per milliliter) or inhibited the kinase activity at 1% (weight/volume, 34.4 units per milliliter). The active stimulus in Driselase was heat sensitive. The plasma membrane vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity also increased when the cells were treated with Driselase. A time course study indicated that both the inositol phospholipid kinases and the plasma membrane vanadate-sensitive ATPase responded to as little as 5 seconds of treatment with 2% Driselase. However, at the lowest concentration of Driselase (0.04%, weight/volume) that resulted in an increase in inositol phospholipid kinase activity, the ATPase activity was not affected. Because inositol phospholipids have been shown to activate the vanadate-sensitive ATPase from plants (AR Memon, Q Chen, WF Boss [1989] Biochem Biophys Res Commun 162: 1295-1301), a stimulus-response pathway involving both the inositol phospholipid kinases and the plasma membrane vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity is discussed.

Abstract
The exact mechanism of gentamicin-induced acute renal failure is presently unknown; various mechanisms have been proposed but there is no proposed commonality between them. In animals, dietary calcium loading and L-thyroxine administration have been shown to ameliorate toxicity, with again no common process. A mechanism of competitive displacement of calcium and other cations from anionic phospholipids at the plasma and organelle membrane level, resulting in a decrease in Na+ -K+ ATPase, adenylate cyclase, mitochondrial function and ATP production, protein synthesis, solute reabsorption and overall cellular function is proposed. A further proposal is dietary calcium loading and thyroxine (which increases intracellular calcium) reverse gentamicin-induced acute renal failure by increasing the calcium and solute flux, thereby competitively inhibiting the primary lesion: anionic phospholipid binding.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-4-monophosphate and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate increased the activity of the vanadate-sensitive ATPase associated with plasma membranes isolated from both sunflower hypocotyls and carrot suspension culture cells. The response was not due to the metabolism of the polyphosphoinositides since diacylglycerol, inositol-1,4-bisphosphate, inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, glycerophosphoinositol monophosphate and glycerophosphoinositol bisphosphate had no effect. These data suggest that activation of the inositol phospholipid kinases could be a critical step in signal transduction in plants.

Abstract
Coadministration of sodium ticarcillin with an aminoglycoside is known to reduce the nephrotoxicity of the aminoglycoside. However, it is not known whether the penicillin or the obligatory sodium load confers protection. To investigate this, gentamicin has been administered intraperitoneally in doses of 50, 60, or 80 mg/kg per day for 12 days in groups of rats receiving either a normal or a low sodium intake. Alterations in creatinine clearance have been measured. Salt depletion resulted in an enhanced nephrotoxic response with a shift in the dose-response curve to the left. Administration of sodium ticarcillin to rats with a salt-depleted intake at a dose sufficient to replace sodium intake conferred an equal degree of protection to rats with a normal salt intake. We report that the obligatory salt supplement with ticarcillin is sufficient to account for the renal sparing effect of the combination treatment without having to infer a direct chemical interaction of penicillin with the aminoglycoside.

Abstract
With [125I]gentamicin as radioligand, the presence of aminoglycoside binding sites and kinetics of gentamicin binding to homogenates of organs of Corti, vestibular maculae, livers, spleens, and hearts of guinea pigs were investigated. The effects of temperature, osmolarity, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and digitonin on gentamicin binding were assessed. The affinities of several aminoglycosides for binding sites were tested. Gentamicin bound to cochlear and vestibular structures in a rapid and saturable fashion at a single class of noninteracting binding sites with Kds of 1.2.10(-6) and 3.10(-7) M and maximal binding capacities of 1.3 nmol and 43 pmol/mg of protein, respectively. In the liver, spleen, and heart, binding remained low and appeared to be nonspecific. In the organ of Corti, gentamicin uptake was unaffected by alterations in temperature or medium osmolarity or by 2,4-dinitrophenol, indicating that the uptake represented binding and not active transport. Digitonin at 10 nM increased markedly the uptake at 37 and 4 degrees C, suggesting the presence of internal binding sites. Various aminoglycosides compete for a common binding site.

Abstract
Polyoma middle-T antigen is required for viral transformation of cultured cells and for tumorigenesis in animals. Like many other transforming gene products, middle-T is bound to the membrane and has an associated tyrosine kinase activity in vitro. This activity seems to result from the interaction of middle-T with pp60c-src, the cellular homologue of the transforming gene product of the Rous sarcoma virus, pp60v-src (refs 3-5). Both pp60v-src (ref. 6) and another retrovirus transforming gene product, pp68v-ros (ref. 7) were shown recently to have an associated phosphatidylinositol (PI) kinase activity in vitro and to increase PI turnover in vivo. These results suggest that viral transformation may be directly connected to a complex network of second messengers generated from PI turnover. Here, we assayed for PI kinase activity in immunoprecipitates made with middle-T- or pp60c-src-specific antisera of cells infected with polyoma virus. A PI kinase activity was detected in those immunoprecipitates which contained middle-T. Studies of mutants of middle-T defective in transformation indicate a close correlation between PI kinase activity and transformation.

Abstract
Incubation of rat liver nuclear envelopes with [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol-[4-32P]phosphate (PIP). Degradation of endogenously labeled PIP was observed upon the dilution of the labeled ATP with an excess of unlabeled ATP. This degradation was most rapid in the presence of EDTA, and was inhibited by MgCl2 and CaCl2. To further characterize the degradative activity, phosphatidylinositol[4-32P]phosphate and phosphatidylinositol [4,5-32P]bisphosphate (PIP2) were synthesized and isolated from erythrocyte plasma membranes. The 32P-labeled phospholipids were then resuspended in 0.4% Tween 80, a detergent that did not inhibit degradation of endogenously labeled PIP, and mixed with nuclear envelopes. [32P]PIP and [32P]PIP2 were degraded at rates of 2.25 and 0.04 nmol min-1 mg nuclear envelope protein-1, respectively. Only 32P was released from phosphatidyl[2-3H]inositol-[4-32P]phosphate, indicating that hydrolysis of PIP was due to a phosphomonoesterase activity (EC 3.1.3.36) in nuclear envelopes. Similarly, anion-exchange chromatographic analysis of the water-soluble products released from [32P]PIP indicated that inorganic phosphate was the sole 32P-labeled product. Hydrolysis of PIP was most rapid at neutral pH, and was not affected by inhibitors of acid phosphatase or alkaline phosphatase. Hydrolysis of PIP was also not inhibited by nonspecific phosphatase substrates, such as glycerophosphate, p-nitrophenylphosphate, AMP, or glucose 6-phosphate. Hydrolysis was stimulated by putrescine, and was inhibited by inositol 2-phosphate, spermidine, spermine, and neomycin.

Abstract
In vitro effects of racemomycin-D on cellular metabolism were examined in rat kidney. Racemomycin-D decreased the concentration gradient of Na+ and K+ across the cell membranes, but failed to influence water content and ATP concentration of kidney cortical slices. The antibiotic inhibited microsomal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. Preincubation of the microsomes with racemomycin-D enhanced the inhibition about 1.8-fold. Succinoxidase activity of mitochondria remained unaltered in the presence of racemomycin-D, but the antibiotic potently decreased ATP-dependent Ca2+ and Mg2+ uptakes by mitochondria. These results suggest that racemomycin-D probably disorders intracellular homeostasis of Na+, K+ and Ca2+.

Abstract
The early alterations at the level of the proximal tubule of the human kidney caused by the three most currently used aminoglycosides, gentamicin, tobramycin, and amikacin, were studied. A prospective, randomized, and comparative approach using multidisciplinary methods was used. The patients received either no treatment or one of the three aminoglycosides at a therapeutic dose for 4 days preceding nephrectomy for neoplasia partly involving one kidney. The three aminoglycosides studied induce an early lysosomal phospholipidosis. Gentamicin and tobramycin cannot be distinguished on the basis of drug tissue accumulation, lysosomal overloading, or effect on lysosomal phospholipase A1. Amikacin induces significantly lower lysosomal overloading and no loss of phospholipase A1 activity.

Abstract
Red blood cells (RBC) stored without plasma in a neomycin, low ionic strength medium at 4 degrees C in excess of 24 h show alterations in antigen reactivity. There is a loss of protease-sensitive RBC antigens and a protease-type increased IgG saline agglutinability of Rh antigens that is associated with increased binding of 125I anti-D. Both the serological findings and the alteration in RBC membrane polypeptides are consistent with protease modification of the membrane due to contamination of the RBC by leukocytes. Neomycin, low ionic strength or leukocytes alone or in dual combination do not produce the observed changes in antigen reactivity. The role of neomycin and low ionic strength in this phenomenon and implication for quality control of reagent RBC used for antibody detection and identification are discussed.

Abstract
Aminoglycoside antibiotics continue to be a mainstay of therapy in the clinical management of gram negative infections, but a major factor in the clinical use of aminoglycosides is their nephrotoxicity. With gram negative organisms accounting for the majority of hospital acquired infections, the occurrence of aminoglycoside induced acute renal failure has become commonplace. Presently at least 10% of all cases of acute renal failure can be attributed to these antibiotics. This article will cover the renal handling of the aminoglycosides, the pathogenetic mechanisms of nephrotoxicity, and the clinical aspects of aminoglycoside induced acute renal failure with particular emphasis on recent data which have increased our understanding of the interaction of aminoglycosides with the renal tubular cell and the effects of this interaction on cellular function and integrity.

Abstract
It has been observed that stress inhibits the activity of the antibiotic, gentamicin. This critical observation leads not only to an explanation of the initial physiological behaviour of the molecule but also helps accommodate the behaviour of several other ligands in their affinity for specific biomembranes. The fundamental mechanism involved is assumed to be chemisorption of the ligands to the negatively-charged lipids that facilitates a phase separation of the associated lipids. In a condensed, mixed-lipid situation, as exists in a living membrane, such a type of reaction may lead to membrane expansion and as a consequence to leakage and signal-induction. The present hypothesis develops such a view with the aid of few supplementing data and a considerable amount of supporting data selected from published literature. The hypothesis requires the rigor of modern-day instrumentation for testing.
