Description of Apramycin (Nebramycin II)

Apramycin (Nebramycin II), an aminoglycoside antibiotic for animals, is widely used to treat Salmonella, Escherichia coli, and other infections[1]. Apramycin showed potent in-vitro activity against hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant K pneumoniae isolates, including those resistant to amikacin or gentamicin[2].

Apramycin (50mg/L, overnight) was used as a selection marker to successfully select isolates with the restoration of functional wild type Ompk35 or Ompk36[3].

Apramycin (20mg/kg, i.p.) and citrulline combined with glutamine significantly improved the body condition of the infected mice[1]. Apramycin (20, 80, or 500mg/kg, s.c.) demonstrated a dramatic therapeutic effect against A. baumannii strains MSRN7465, MSRN1450 and FDA-CDC278 in neutropenic murine thigh infection model[4].

Protocol of Apramycin (Nebramycin II)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

The competent cells of Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates

Preparation Method

The competent cells of Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates were prepared using 10% glycerol. The mixture of 50μl electrocompetent cells and 5μl plasmid was transferred into a 2mm electroporation cuvette and electroporated using MicroPuler System (Bio-Rad) at 2.5kV. The cells were plated onto Luria-Bertani (LB) agar containing Apramycin at 50mg/L. The plates were incubated at 37°C overnight, and the successful clone was identified using PCR and sequencing. PCR detection for the presence of beta-lactamase genes encoding carbapenemases, ESBL associated genes, and plasmid-borne AmpC beta-lactamases were performed. Outer membrane protein genes were amplified by PCR. PCR amplicons were sequenced and compared with sequences available in the GenBank database using BLAST searches.

Reaction Conditions

50mg/L, overnight

Applications

Apramycin was used as a selection marker to successfully select isolates with the restoration of functional wild type Ompk35 or Ompk36.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Neutropenia mouse Apramycin-resistant Salmonella strains infection model

Preparation Method

Ninety healthy female mice were divided into nine groups, with 10 mice in each group. The groups comprised the negative control group without bacterial infection, the positive control group (mice infected with drug-resistant bacteria but without any treatment), and the other seven groups were treated with Apramycin, citrulline, glutamine, Apramycin plus citrulline, Apramycin plus glutamine, or Apramycin plus citrulline plus glutamine, respectively, after infection with drug-resistant bacteria. All animals were tested and found to be Salmonella typhimurium-free before the start of experiments.

Eighty mice were intraperitoneally injected with cyclophosphamide for 5 days to establish a neutropenia model. After the establishment of the model, 0.1ml Apramycin-induced Salmonella typhimurium (Apr-R-CICC21484) suspension was injected intraperitoneally at a concentration of 107 colony-forming units/ml. At 12h after infection, the mice in the experimental group were injected intraperitoneally with Apramycin or citrulline and glutamine. The doses of Apramycin, citrulline, and glutamine used in the experiment were 20mg/kg body weight (b.w.), 240mg/kg b.w., and 200mg/kg b.w., respectively. At 24h after treatment, all mice were euthanized. The liver, spleen, and blood of all mice were collected under sterile conditions and placed in saline. The tissue or blood of each mouse was homogenized separately, diluted with saline, and inoculated on different nutrient agar plates. Finally, the bacterial load of each mouse liver, spleen, and a blood sample was calculated to evaluate the effect of different treatment schemes.

Dosage form

20mg/kg, i.p.

Applications

Apramycin and citrulline combined with glutamine significantly improved the body condition of the infected mice.
