Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medical technology and relates to a 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,5-dihydroxy-5-methylpyrrolidone derivative and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to those skilled in the art.
[0003] Pathogens' inherent defense mechanisms, combined with the widespread use and misuse of antibiotics, have made even common infections difficult to treat. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop antimicrobial agents with novel mechanisms of action to combat antibiotic resistance. Quorum sensing (QS) is a crucial mechanism by which bacteria regulate virulence through intercellular signaling. It has become a promising target for adjunctive antibiotic therapy by inhibiting bacterial virulence without affecting growth, thereby generating mild selective pressure and reducing the incidence of drug resistance. LasR, a receptor protein that specifically binds to signaling molecules in the QS system, interferes with its function, modulating the expression of bacterial virulence genes and reducing biofilm maturity.
[0004] Iron is essential for the growth and survival of most bacterial pathogens. Under iron-limiting conditions, bacteria can secrete small molecule metal chelators (such as siderophores) and utilize exogenous siderophores. Siderophores are not only involved in iron transport, but also transport other metals, regulating the production of bacterial virulence factors and biofilm formation. Given the active uptake of siderophores by bacteria in iron-deficient environments, interfering with bacterial iron uptake systems is expected to provide potential opportunities for the development of new antimicrobial agents. Studies have shown that relatively few studies have investigated quorum sensing inhibitors that can interfere with bacterial iron uptake. Summary of the Invention

Subsequently, an equal volume of the above bacterial solution as the compound was added to the 96-well plate, and 200 μL of culture medium was added to the periphery. The plate was placed in a multi-function microplate reader, set at 37°C, incubated and read, including optical density (OD 600 ), Pvd fluorescence (excitation wavelength: 400 nm, emission wavelength: 447 nm), and Pch fluorescence (excitation wavelength: 350 nm, emission wavelength: 430 nm).
