Description of CHIR-090

CHIR-090 is a potent, slow, and tight-binding LpxC deacetylase inhibitor, with a Ki value of 4.0nM for binding to Escherichia coli LpxC[1-2]. By specifically inhibiting LpxC, CHIR-090 blocks lipid A biosynthesis, thereby exerting excellent antibiotic activity, and can be used in research targeting Gram-negative bacteria[3-4].

In vitro, CHIR-090 (4μg/ml) was used to treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which screened for various resistant mutants, including overexpression mutants of the efflux pump systems MexAB-OprM, MexCD-OprJ, and MexEF-OprN, as well as amino acid substitution mutations in the target LpxC (LpxC L18V) or LpxC overexpression caused by ribosomal binding site mutations[5]. When CHIR-090 (0.1-100μg/ml) was applied to the Burkholderia cepacia complex, CHIR-090 significantly reduced the survival of B. multivorans but showed no inhibitory activity against some strains of B. cenocepacia[6].

In vivo, CHIR-090 (4mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally to a mouse model implanted with Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm (single dose). CHIR-090 monotherapy reduced the bacterial load in implants and spleens by approximately 2log10, while combination therapy with polymyxin (10mg/kg) further reduced the bacterial load by 4log10 and inhibited bacterial dissemination to the spleen[7].

Protocol of CHIR-090

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative pathogen), Burkholderia cepacia complex strains (including B. multivorans, B. cenocepacia, and other clinical isolates).

Preparation Method

Bacterial strains were cultured in LB broth or Mueller-Hinton broth under standard aerobic conditions at 37°C. Susceptibility testing was performed using broth micro dilution(CHIR-090; 0.1-100μg/ml) methods.

Reaction Conditions

0.1-100μg/ml; 18-24h

Applications

CHIR-090 significantly inhibited growth of B. multivorans and B. dolosa (e.g., MIC =0.1–6.25µg/mL for B. multivorans strains), but showed no activity against smooth-LPS B. cenocepacia strains (K56-2). The compound’s efficacy correlated with LpxC inhibition, disrupting outer membrane integrity via lipid A biosynthesis blockade.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c mice

Preparation Method

Mice were subcutaneously inoculated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm-producing strain encapsulated in agar beads (approximately 106CFU per implant) at the dorsal subcutaneous tissue. Treatments began 24h post-infection (CHIR-090; 4mg/kg/dose; intraperitoneal injection; Polymyxin B; 10mg/kg/dose; intraperitoneal injection).

Dosage form

4mg/kg/dose; i.p.; single injection

Applications

CHIR-090 monotherapy significantly reduced bacterial burden in implants and spleens by approximately 2-log10CFU compared to untreated controls. Combination therapy with polymyxin B enhanced efficacy, achieving up to 4-log10CFU reduction in bacterial load and preventing systemic dissemination to the spleen. These findings demonstrate CHIR-090's therapeutic potential in treating Gram-negative biofilm-associated infections in vivo.
