Structured Review
![Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of azeliragon, penicillin, tetracycline, and vancomycin against clinical S. <t>pneumoniae</t> isolates were determined using the broth microdilution method. MIC 50 [the lowest concentration inhibiting 50% of isolates; (A) ] and MIC 90 [the lowest concentration inhibiting 90% of isolates; (B) ] were calculated. Values shown above the bars indicate the corresponding MIC 50 or MIC 90 (μg/mL). Data were presented as mean ± SD. The experiments were performed with three independent biological replicates ( n = 3).](https://pub-med-central-images-cdn.bioz.com/pub_med_central_ids_ending_with_2591/pmc13102591/pmc13102591__fmed-13-1793580-g001.jpg)

Techniques Used: Concentration Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Effects of azeliragon on the in vitro growth of S. pneumoniae . Dose–response relationships of S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619 (A) , S. pneumoniae 1057 (B) , and S. pneumoniae 1044 (C) following treatment with increasing concentrations of azeliragon. Bacterial growth was measured after 18 h of incubation and expressed as OD 600 . Effects of azeliragon on the growth kinetics of S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619 (D) , S. pneumoniae 1057 (E) , and S. pneumoniae 1044 (F) . Bacteria were cultured under control conditions or with different concentrations of azeliragon, and OD 600 was recorded at indicated time points to generate growth curves. Data were presented as mean ± SD. The experiments were performed with three independent biological replicates ( n = 3). “ns” represented no significant difference, ** p < 0.01.
Techniques Used: In Vitro, Incubation, Bacteria, Cell Culture, Control
Figure Legend Snippet: Time-kill activity and biofilm disruption effects of azeliragon against S. pneumoniae . Time-kill curves of S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619 (A) , S. pneumoniae 1057 (B) , and S. pneumoniae 1044 (C) treated with azeliragon (4× MIC). Bacteria were cultured under control conditions or treated with azeliragon (4× MIC) or vancomycin (4× MIC), and viable counts (CFU/mL) were determined at indicated time points. Effects of azeliragon (4× MIC) on biofilm biomass of S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619 (D) , S. pneumoniae 1057 (E) , and S. pneumoniae 1044 (F) . Mature biofilms were treated with the indicated drugs for 24 h and quantified by crystal violet staining. Results are expressed as OD₅₇₀. Data were presented as mean ± SD. Data were presented as mean ± SD. The experiments were performed with six independent biological replicates ( n = 6). Group comparisons for biofilm assays were analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple-comparison test. “ns” represented no significant difference, *** p < 0.001.

Figure Legend Snippet: Effects of azeliragon on membrane integrity and oxidative stress in S. pneumoniae . (A) Propidium iodide (PI) staining was used to assess membrane permeability. Bacteria were treated under control conditions or with azeliragon (4× MIC) or vancomycin (4× MIC). Fluorescence intensity (A.U.) was measured to evaluate membrane integrity. (B) Intracellular oxidative stress was assessed using a reactive oxygen species (ROS) fluorescent probe. Bacteria were treated as indicated, and ROS fluorescence intensity (A.U.) was quantified. Data were presented as mean ± SD. Group comparisons were performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple-comparison test. Data were presented as mean ± SD. The experiments were performed with three independent biological replicates ( n = 3). “ns” represented no significant difference, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01.

(B) Therapeutic efficacy of azeliragon in the pneumonia model. (C) Seven-day survival curves of mice with sepsis induced by S. pneumoniae ATCC 49619. Mice received vehicle control, bacterial control, azeliragon (5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg), or vancomycin (10 mg/kg). Each group contained 10 mice. Survival was monitored continuously. (D) Seven-day survival curves of mice with sepsis induced by the clinical S. pneumoniae isolate 1044. Experimental groups and treatments were identical to those in (A) . Survival data were plotted using the Kaplan–Meier method, and statistical significance was determined using the log-rank (Mantel–Cox) test. “ns” represented no significant difference, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001.
