New 1-hydroxy-2-thiopyridine derivatives active against both replicating and dormant Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

Tuberculosis (TB) treatment is confounded by the range of metabolic states displayed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, by the long duration required and by the increasing prevalence of drug-resistant strains. Latent TB infection is especially difficult to tre ...

Towards a new combination therapy for tuberculosis with next generation benzothiazinones

Paul Joseph Dyson, Stewart Cole, Florence Pojer, Ruben Hartkoorn, Ming Zhang, Benoit Lechartier, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres, Anthony Vocat

The benzothiazinone lead compound, BTZ043, kills Mycobacterium tuberculosis by inhibiting the essential flavo-enzyme DprE1, decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-ribose 2-epimerase. Here, we synthesized a new series of piperazine-containing benzothiazinones (PBTZ) a ...

Development of 3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and Thiadiazoles as Selective Antitubercular Agents Active Against Replicating and Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Edina Rita Székely, Anthony Vocat

Herein, we report the discovery and structure activity relationships of 5-substituted-2-[(3,5-dinitrobenzyl)-sulfanyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles as a new class of antituberculosis agents. The majority of these compounds exhibited outstanding ...

Both Nitro Groups Are Essential for High Antitubercular Activity of 3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl Tetrazoles and 1,3,4-Oxadiazoles through the Deazaflavin-Dependent Nitroreductase Activation Pathway

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

3,5-Dinitrobenzylsulfanyl tetrazoles and 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, previously identified as having high in vitro activities against both replicating and nonreplicating mycobacteria and favorable cytotoxicity and genotoxicity profiles were investigated. First we d ...

CERT1 mutations perturb human development by disrupting sphingolipid homeostasis

Paolo De Los Rios, Bruno Lemaitre, Evelyne Ruchti, Sylvia Ho, Anthony Vocat, Marine Van Campenhoudt, Samuel Rommelaere, Greta Limoni, Stefano Zamuner, Giovanni D'Angelo, Laura Capolupo, Charlotte Julie Caroline Gehin, Samuel Sagar Kumar, Huixin Guo

Neural differentiation, synaptic transmission, and action potential propagation depend on membrane sphingolipids, whose metabolism is tightly regulated. Mutations in the ceramide transporter CERT (CERT1), which is involved in sphingolipid biosynthesis, are ...

Arylvinylpiperazine Amides, a New Class of Potent Inhibitors Targeting QcrB of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Raphael Christopher Sommer, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Anthony Vocat, Andrej Benjak, Jérémie Piton, Andréanne Lupien

New drugs are needed to control the current tuberculosis (TB) pandemic caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We report here on our work with AX-35, an arylvinylpiperazine amide, and four related analogs, which are potent antitubercular agent ...

In Vitro and In Vivo Activities of Three Oxazolidinones against Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Ming Zhang, Anthony Vocat

Oxazolidinones represent a new class of antituberculosis drugs that exert their function by inhibiting protein synthesis. Here, we compared the activities of three oxazolidinones, linezolid, PNU-100480, and AZD5847, against latent tuberculosis using a simp ...

Accurate and rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing using a machine learning-assisted nanomotion technology platform

Sandor Kasas, Anthony Vocat

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health threat, reducing treatment options for infected patients. AMR is promoted by a lack of access to rapid antibiotic susceptibility tests (ASTs). Accelerated ASTs can identify effective antibiotics for t ...

The 8-Pyrrole-Benzothiazinones Are Noncovalent Inhibitors of DprE1 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Gaëlle Séraphine Kolly, Stewart Cole, Ruben Hartkoorn, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres, Anthony Vocat, Trent Michael Conroy, Jérémie Piton

8-Nitro-benzothiazinones (BTZs), such as BTZ043 and PBTZ169, inhibit decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-ribose 2'-oxidase (DprE1) and display nanomolar bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studie ...
