Ability of Innate Defence Regulator Peptides IDR-1002, IDR-HH2 and IDR-1018 to Protect against Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infections in Animal Models

Abstract: Tuberculosis is an ongoing threat to global health, especially with the emergence of multi drug-resistant (MDR) and extremely drug-resistant strains that are motivating the search for new treatment strategies. One potential strategy is immunotherapy using Innate Defence Regulator (IDR) peptides that selectively modulate innate immunity, enhancing chemokine induction and cell recruitment while suppressing potentially harmful inflammatory responses. IDR peptides possess only modest antimicrobial activity but hav… Show more

“…Moreover, HDPs can also modulate cytokine production to control the inflammatory response [14,15,19,28,38] and thereby may reduce the risk of developing inflammatory osteolysis. IDR-1018 is one of the most attractive of the HDPs [1,26,30,32,37,39,42]. The purposes of our study were therefore (1) to more fully characterize the immunomodulatory effects of IDR-1018, especially in response to S aureus; and (2) to determine whether IDR-1018 decreases S aureus infection of orthopaedic implants in mice and thereby protects the implants from failure to osseointegrate.…”

“…Innate defense regulator peptide-1018 (IDR-1018) is a synthetic 12-amino acid derivative of bactenecin, a bovine HDP [42]. IDR-1018 can directly kill bacteria [42], can modulate differentiation and activation of macrophages and neutrophils, thereby regulating their production of chemokines and cytokines [1,26,30,32,37,42], can reduce soft tissue infections [1,37], and can disrupt bacterial biofilms [25,35]. IDR-1018 was chosen as the focus of this study because it is the most potent IDR that has been described [37] and is therefore an attractive agent to potentially reduce orthopaedic infections and inflammatory osteolysis around orthopaedic implants.…”

“…The change in IL-1β-induced proteome is 266 OTVOS evident from the alteration of the expression of NF-κB and JNK pathway members. Two other analogs, IDR-HH2 and IDR-1018, fail to kill M. tuberculosis in vitro to any noticeable degree but reduce bacterium loads in drug-sensitive as well as drug-resistant M. tuberculosis infections [91]. In a mouse model, the leading drug candidate, IDR-1018 (Table I) also reduces lung inflammation as detected by reduced pneumonia.…”
