Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

CHIR-090 is a very potent and selective LpxC inhibitor. CHIR-090 has excellent antibiotic activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. CHIR-090 is also a two-step slow, tight-binding inhibitor of E. coli LpxC with Ki = 4.0 nM, Ki* = 0.5 nM, k5 = 1.9 min-1, and k6 = 0.18 min-1. CHIR-090 at low nanomolar levels inhibits LpxC orthologues from diverse Gram-negative pathogens, including P. aeruginosa, Neisseria meningitidis, and Helicobacter pylori. In contrast, CHIR-090 is a relatively weak competitive and conventional inhibitor (lacking slow, tight-binding kinetics) of LpxC from Rhizobium leguminosarum (Ki = 340 nM), a Gram-negative plant endosymbiont that is resistant to this compound. CHIR-090 is an excellent lead for the further development of new antibiotics targeting the lipid A pathway.

More Info
Biological target:
CHIR-090 is a slow, tight-binding inhibitor of the LpxC deacetylase with a Ki of 4.0 nM for E. coli LpxC.
In vitro activity:
Strongly supporting this notion, growth of LpxH depleted cells (-IPTG) was rescued by exposure to the well-characterized LpxC inhibitor, CHIR-090 in a dose-dependent fashion (Fig 7A and 7B). The concentration of CHIR-090 used here (8–16 μg/ml) was sufficient to block LpxC since this level of exposure dramatically reduces or eliminates LPS production in A. baumannii ATCC19606 (S20 Fig). A similar result was recently reported using the LpxC inhibitor PF-508109 at 32 μg/ml. Furthermore, cells under LpxH depletion conditions in the presence of CHIR-090 had much lower accumulation these pathway intermediates, indicating that the synthesis of these intermediates was blocked by CHIR-090 under these growth conditions (Fig 8A–8F). These data strongly indicate that toxic accumulation of one or more lipid A pathway intermediates underlies the dependence on LpxH for growth of A. baumannii ATCC 19606.

In vivo activity:
The in vivo efficacy of colistin and CHIR-090, alone and in combination, was evaluated using a mouse implant model of infection. The results are presented in Fig. 3. Both in the implant and in the spleen, similar log counts were observed for the mice from the control group (treated with DMSO) and the untreated group (treated with 0.9% NaCl) (Fig. 3). For both the implant and spleen, CHIR-090 used as monotherapy resulted in an approximately 2-log10 kill, whereas colistin caused a 3-log10 reduction compared to the counts in the untreated or control group (Fig. 3). The combination of colistin and CHIR-090 resulted in a greater reduction in the number of CFU (up to 4 log10) (Fig. 3).
