Article Abstract

A series of thioether pleuromutilin derivatives containing 1,2,4-triazole on the side chain of C14 were designed and synthesized. The in vitro antibacterial activities experiments of the synthesized derivatives showed that compounds 72 and 73 displayed superior in vitro antibacterial effect against MRSA minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC = 0.0625 μg/mL) than tiamulin (MIC = 0.5 μg/mL). The results of time-kill study and postantibiotic effect study indicated that compound 72 could inhibit the growth of MRSA quickly (-2.16 log CFU/mL) and showed certain postantibiotic effect (PAE) time (exposure to 2 × MIC and 4 × MIC for 2 h, the PAE was 1.30 and 1.35 h) against MRSA. Furthermore, the binding mode between compound 72 and 50S ribosome of MRSA was explored by molecular docking and five hydrogen bonds were formed between compound 72 and 50S ribosome.

Amphenmulin is a novel pleuromutilin derivative with proven excellent antibacterial activity. To investigate its metabolism in animals, ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) was employed to analyze and identify metabolites in rats and chickens and using human, rat, pig, chicken and beagle dog liver microsomes. We identified 18 metabolites from liver microsomes and 24 and 17 metabolites for rats and chickens, respectively.

The overuse of antibiotics has led to the progressively severe issue of bacterial drug resistance. As a result, a large number of antibiotics available on the market show a notably diminished effectiveness against drug-resistant bacteria. Thus, a series of dimethylcysteamine pleuromutilin derivatives were designed and synthesized.

The pleuromutilin derivative, the compound PL-W, was synthesized by introducing a 4-fluorophenyl group at the C21 position and selected for comprehensive antibacterial evaluation. PL-W demonstrated notable antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant (MRSA), with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.03125 µg/mL, which is significantly lower than that of tiamulin (0.

Pleuromutilin, a diterpene fungal metabolite, serves as a privileged scaffold for antibiotic discovery. Improving its antibacterial activity and broadening its spectrum remain the primary objectives in developing novel pleuromutilin derivatives. To obtain an ideal candidate, a series of pleuromutilin analogues conjugated to the triphenylphosphonium cation (TPP) were designed and synthesized.

Mycoplasma gallisepticum (M. gallisepticum, MG) is the primary pathogen of chronic respiratory disease (CRD) in chickens and leads to pneumonia and air sacculitis in infected chickens and a corresponding economic loss for the poultry industry. The pleuromutilins have excellent anti-mycoplasmal activity and we evaluated the in vivo activity of a new derivative 22-((4-((2-furan-1-yl)acetamido)phenyl)thio) deoxypleuromutilin (p-furoylamphenmulin) against M.
