Biofilm formation is an important factor for Mycobacterium abscessus to resist harsh environment and produce drug resistance. The anti-biofilm activity of a newly designed antibacterial peptide, RP557, was investigated. The effect of RP557 alone or in combination with several clin. effective antibiotics, including clarithromycin, amikacin, cefoxitin and imipenem, on M. abscessus growth in biofilms was determined Microstructural changes in biofilms after RP557 treatment were observed by scanning electron microscope. The effect of RP557 on the viability of bacteria was determined by Syto9/PI staining and fluorescence microscopy. Finally, the potential mechanism of RP557 action on biofilm development was explored by transcriptome anal. M. abscessus growing in biofilms showed increased resistance to antimicrobial drugs. RP557 alone exhibited only moderate anti-M. abscessus activity in vitro, but significantly increased the antibiotic sensitivity of M. abscessus in biofilms. The inhibitory effect of RP557 on biofilm formation was visualized by the scanning electron microscope; fluorescence staining demonstrated increased bacterial death in response to RP557 treatment. Furthermore, comparative anal. of transcriptomic data suggested RP557 may inhibit biofilm formation by down-regulating nitrogen and fatty acid metabolism, as well as peptidoglycan biosynthesis. As such, RP557 is a potential candidate to include in novel strategies to treat M. abscessus infections. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as (4-Formyl-5-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methyl dihydrogen phosphate (cas: 54-47-7Application In Synthesis of (4-Formyl-5-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methyl dihydrogen phosphate).
(4-Formyl-5-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methyl dihydrogen phosphate (cas: 54-47-7) belongs to pyridine derivatives. In contrast to benzene, Pyridine’s electron density is not evenly distributed over the ring, reflecting the negative inductive effect of the nitrogen atom. One of the examples of pyridines is the well-known alkaloid lithoprimidine, which is an A3 adenosine receptor antagonist and N,N-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) analog, commonly used in organic synthesis.Application In Synthesis of (4-Formyl-5-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-3-yl)methyl dihydrogen phosphate
