Article Title: In vitro and in vivo activity profiles of broad-spectrum bacterial ATP synthase inhibitors

doi: 10.1101/2025.08.21.671483

Figure Lengend Snippet: Bactericidal effects of TM-184 (A), TM-218 (B), and TM-220 (C) on Escherichia coli ATCC BAA 2471 (CRE, NDM-1). Kill kinetics were assessed as described in the Methods and Materials section. The log CFU/ml at each time point represents the mean of three independent experiments. The detection limit was 100 CFU/ml.

Article Snippet: Additionally, the parental Escherichia coli strain MC4100 (ATCC 35695), its membrane-compromised mutant strain MC4100 lptD4213 (formerly known as imp4213 with an altered lptD gene) [ ], and its efflux pump-deficient mutant MC4100 acrAB [ ], were utilized to examine the effects of the outer membrane barrier and compound efflux on antibiotic susceptibility, as previously reported [ ].

Figure Lengend Snippet: Activity of TM-184 in a neutropenic mouse thigh infection model. Mice were infected with E. coli ATCC 25922, and TM-184 , dissolved in 45% cyclodextrin, was administered intraperitoneally (IP) at 15 mg/kg, 2 and 6 h post-infection. Cefotaxime (CTX) was used as a treatment control (also IP, same dose, same diluent). Horizontal bars within the boxes indicate the median value for each group, and whiskers show the minimum and maximum values. Results were compared with the placebo control group, which received only the diluent (non-treated CTRL). Both compounds significantly reduced bacterial loads in vivo . Statistical significance was determined using the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple-comparison test (* p < 0.05, *** p < 0.001).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Minimum and maximum values, mean, and standard deviation of the inhibition zone diameters, epidemiological cutoff values, and wild type/non-wild type (WT/NWT) percentual for Lactococcus spp. and quality control strains in the antimicrobial susceptibility analysis.

Article Snippet: Then, antimicrobial disks were placed on the agar, and the plates were incubated at 28 °C for 24 h. Additionally, the quality control reference strains Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida ATCC 33658 were grown on blood agar, incubated at 28 °C for 24 h, and subjected to the same experimental conditions described above as recommended by the CLSI for this method.
