Despite progress in modern chemotherapy to combat tuberculosis, the causative pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb.) is far from eradicated. Bacillary resistance to anti-mycobacterial agents, bacillary persistence and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection hamper current drug treatment to completely cure the infection, generating a constant demand for novel drug candidates to tackle these problems. A small library of novel heterocyclic compounds was screened in a rapid luminometric in vitro assay against the laboratory M.tb. strain H37Rv. A group of amidines was found to have the highest potency and was further evaluated for acute toxicity against C3A hepatocytes. Next, the most promising compounds were evaluated for activity against a multi-drug resistant clinical isolate. The group of amidines was also tested for their ability to kill intracellular M.tb. residing in mouse J774A.1 macrophages. Finally, we report on a correlation between the structural differences of the compounds and their anti-mycobacterial activity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D009169 Mycobacterium tuberculosis A species of gram-positive, aerobic bacteria that produces TUBERCULOSIS in humans, other primates, CATTLE; DOGS; and some other animals which have contact with humans. Growth tends to be in serpentine, cordlike masses in which the bacilli show a parallel orientation. Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000995 Antitubercular Agents Drugs used in the treatment of tuberculosis. They are divided into two main classes: "first-line" agents, those with the greatest efficacy and acceptable degrees of toxicity used successfully in the great majority of cases; and "second-line" drugs used in drug-resistant cases or those in which some other patient-related condition has compromised the effectiveness of primary therapy.

D015195 Drug Design The molecular designing of drugs for specific purposes (such as DNA-binding, enzyme inhibition, anti-cancer efficacy, etc.) based on knowledge of molecular properties such as activity of functional groups, molecular geometry, and electronic structure, and also on information cataloged on analogous molecules. Drug design is generally computer-assisted molecular modeling and does not include PHARMACOKINETICS, dosage analysis, or drug administration analysis.
