Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of marine microorganisms, and in particular to a polyketide compound and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Although the discovery and clinical use of antibiotics have revolutionized human health against microbial infections, the rapid development of bacterial resistance to several antibiotics has garnered worldwide attention. The World Health Organization (WHO) has designated antimicrobial resistance as a potential public health crisis. Furthermore, annual antibiotic consumption and overuse have increased severalfold, leading to a significant increase in cases of antibiotic resistance. Notably, over the past few decades, the number of antibiotics approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has far exceeded the number of reported cases of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Importantly, newly synthesized antibiotics possess antimicrobial mechanisms similar to those of existing antibiotics. Antibiotic discovery also has several other limitations, such as complex chemical synthesis methods, poor bioavailability, and systemic toxicity. Therefore, new antimicrobial agents with innovative antimicrobial mechanisms are urgently needed to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria. Summary of the Invention

[0003] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a new polyketone compound and a method for preparing the compound. Another purpose is to provide a specific application of the compound to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0040] 2. Bacterial solution preparation

[0041] The MIC values of compounds and drugs were measured by the microbroth dilution method according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines. The target bacteria were inoculated on Mueller-Hinton agar (MHA) plates at 37°C. After 24 h of incubation, single colonies were picked and transferred to MHB broth medium. The plates were shaken on a shaker for 4-6 h (220 rpm, 37°C) until the bacterial count reached approximately 1 × 10 8 CFU / mL. Dilute 100-fold with MHB broth to obtain a bacterial count of approximately 1×10 6 CFU / mL of bacterial solution, set aside. Test strain: Acinetobacter baumannii ( A. baumannii ), Bacillus cereus ( B. cereus ), Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( P. aeruginosa ), Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ), Bacillus subtilis ( B. subtilis )、Candida albicans ( C. albicans ), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci (MRCNS).

[0042] 3 Activity Test

[0043] Use the micro-broth dilution method. Take a 96-well plate, add 198 μL medium (except column 11), the following 8 rows are 100 μ L medium, columns 10, 11, and 12 for positive and negative controls.

[0044] 2 μ Add the compound with the initial concentration of L to the first well, mix well, and then use the serial dilution method to draw 100 μL of the compound from the first well with a pipette. μ L of liquid was added to the second well, mixed, and then 100 μ L is added to the third well, and so on, after mixing well in the 10th well, 100 μ L solution was discarded. Then 100 μ L of spare bacterial suspension (1 × 10 6 CFU / mL) were added to wells 1 to 10 and mixed. The final concentrations of the compound or drug in wells 1 to 10 were 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1. μ g / mL. Final concentration of positive drug: 128, 64, 2, 16, 8, 4, 2, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125, 0.0625, 0.0312, 0.0156, 0.0078 μ g / mL).

[0045] Repeat three times for each compound or drug, using ciprofloxacin, nystatin, vancomycin, and imipenem as positive agents. Place the 96-well plate in a 37°C incubator for 18 hours and observe the results. The concentration corresponding to the wells with visible clarity is the MIC value.

[0049] .

[0050] Example 3 Determination of uric acid-lowering activity of compound I

[0051] 1. Xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitory activity assay of compounds

[0052] The final concentration gradient of compound I was set to 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, 0.3125 μM, using DMSO as solvent control, incubate different concentrations of compound I with XOD at 37°C for 15 min, then add substrate xanthine solution, immediately place in a microplate reader, and detect the absorbance of the system at 295 nm at 37°C, every 1 min for 10 min. According to XOD activity (%) = compound group △OD 295 nm ÷ control group△OD 295 nm ×100 was used for calculation, and IC was calculated using Graphpad Prism 5 software. 50 Fitting.

[0053] Compound Ⅰ has good inhibitory activity against XOD, IC 50 0.6 μ M, see Figure 1 .

[0054] The above experiments verified that the activity screening results of compound I showed that compound I had an effect on Bacillus cereus ( B. cereus ), Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ), Bacillus subtilis ( B. subtilis ), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci (MRCNS), and may be used as an antibacterial lead compound for the treatment of bacterial infections. Furthermore, compound I exhibits strong inhibitory activity against XOD, suggesting its potential for lowering uric acid and its potential application.

[0055] Compound I is a small molecule with a relatively simple structure and promising pharmacokinetic potential (e.g., high oral bioavailability and strong tissue penetration). Compared to large molecules or complex natural products, small molecules are easier to synthesize and optimize, facilitating rapid establishment of structure-activity relationships and the development of derivatives. Small molecules can often penetrate cell membranes to directly act on intracellular targets, potentially opening the door to novel antibacterial mechanisms and potentially addressing the current problem of severe target homogeneity in antibacterial drugs.
