Cephalosporin‐3′‐diazeniumdiolates: Targeted NO‐Donor Prodrugs for Dispersing Bacterial Biofilms

Abstract: Just say NO to biofilms: NO-donors are used to disperse a bacterial biofilm so that co-administered antibiotics will kill the more susceptible unattached cells. The chemically stable cephalosporin-3'-diazeniumdiolate NO-donor prodrug is activated by bacterial β-lactamases and facilitates this two-step biofilm erradication.

“…While exposure to low doses of NO alone appears to be non-toxic to bacteria, the released planktonic cells and cells still residing on surfaces both show increased susceptibility to a range of antibiotics and antimicrobials [23, 39,95]. Thus NO-based anti-biofilm strategies probably benefit from combined treatments with standard antibiotic therapies to clear infections.…”

“…Interestingly, release of NO was also triggered by non-β-lactamase-producing E. coli extracts suggesting that the compounds can also be activated by transpeptidases, the target enzymes of β-lactam antibiotics. These compounds were effective at dispersing biofilms of several pathogenic species including mixed species biofilms from CF sputum, and when used in combination with tobramycin and ciprofloxacin greatly improved the outcome of the antibiotic therapy [53,95]. In these experiments, the use of DEACP at 10 µM was found to be more effective than at 100 µM, increasing tobramycin and ciprofloxacin treatments by 1.8 and 1.5 log reduction in CFU, respectively [95].…”

“…The use of NO donor compounds, such as diazeniumdiolates, have been a popular method of introducing NO into a biological system and have been be successfully employed to disperse P. aeruginosa biofilms. 100,251,[278][279][280] NO-donor compounds offer a controlled method of NO application and are able to stabilize the developing radical until its release. [281][282][283][284][285] Another class of molecule that has been found to inhibit biofilm formation and induce dispersal are nitroxides.…”
