Insight Into the Anti-staphylococcal Activity of JBC 1847 at Sub-Inhibitory Concentration

Abstract: Multidrug-resistant pathogens constitute a serious global issue and, therefore, novel antimicrobials with new modes of action are urgently needed. Here, we investigated the effect of a phenothiazine derivative (JBC 1847) with high antimicrobial activity on Staphylococcus aureus, using a wide range of in vitro assays, flow cytometry, and RNA transcriptomics. The flow cytometry results showed that JBC 1847 rapidly caused depolarization of the cell membrane, while the macromolecule synthesis inhibition assay show… Show more

“…Furthermore, the emergence of some synthesized compounds aimed at disrupting ΔΨ is also exciting. JBC 1847, a phenothiazine derivative, is a positively charged cationic amphiphilic compound exhibiting significantly improved antistaphylococcal activity through membrane depolarization 47 . Likewise, oritavancin is a semisynthetic lipoglycopeptide effective in eliminating S. aureus cells in an exponential growth state 48 .…”

“…Compounds that disrupt PMF have the potential to combat bacterial infections, as demonstrated by certain FDA-approved drugs like daptomycin and telavancin, which disrupt the ΔΨ component 47,48 . Moreover, synthetic compounds such as JBC 1847 and oritavancin, along with antimicrobial peptides like WRK-12 and WW307, have shown antibacterial activities by disrupting ΔΨ through membrane depolarization [49][50][51][52] . Natural products like flavones and synthetic compounds like halicin, on the other hand, have been found to dissipate ΔpH 53,54 .…”

“…Additionally, alnustone demonstrated a pronounced down‐regulatory effect on histidine genes. Histidine, an essential amino acid crucial for bacterial growth, plays a fundamental role in synthesizing and repairing cell membranes, ensuring their stability (Ronco et al, 2022). It also actively contributes to bacterial division and reproduction and is integral to the immune response, safeguarding bacteria from the external environment (Leijten et al, 2022).…”
