A New "Non-Traditional" Antibacterial Drug Fluorothiazinone-Clinical Research in Patients with Complicated Urinary Tract Infections.

In order to combat resistance, it is necessary to develop antimicrobial agents that act differently from conventional antibiotics. Fluorothiazinone, 300 mg tablet (The Gamaleya National Research Center), is an original antibacterial drug based on a new small molecule T3SS and flagellum inhibitor. A total of 357 patients with complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) were divided into two groups and given Fluorothiazinone 1200 mg/day or a placebo for 7 days to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the drug.

New conjugates based on N4-hydroxycytidine with more potent antiviral efficacy in vitro than EIDD-2801 against SARS-CoV-2 and other human coronaviruses.

The spread of COVID-19 continues due to genetic variation in SARS-CoV-2. Highly mutated variants of SARS-CoV-2 have an increased transmissibility and immune evasion. Due to the emergence of various new variants of the virus, there is an urgent need to develop broadly effective specific drugs for therapeutic strategies for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.

Pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, bioavailability and excretion of the anti-virulence drug Fluorothiazinon in rats and rabbits.

Growing antimicrobial resistance has accelerated the development of anti-virulence drugs to suppress bacterial toxicity without affecting cell viability. Fluorothiazinon (FT), an anti-virulence, type three secretion system and flagella motility inhibitor which has shown promise to suppress drug-resistant pathogens having the potential to enhance the efficacy of commonly prescribed antibiotics when used in combination. In this study we characterized the pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, bioavailability and excretion of FT in rats and rabbits.

Synthesis and Antiviral Activity of Novel β-D-N4-Hydroxycytidine Ester Prodrugs as Potential Compounds for the Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 and Other Human Coronaviruses.

The spread of COVID-19 infection continues due to the emergence of multiple transmissible and immune-evasive variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Although various vaccines have been developed and several drugs have been approved for the treatment of COVID-19, the development of new drugs to combat COVID-19 is still necessary. In this work, new 5'-O-ester derivatives of N4-hydroxycytidine based on carboxylic acids were developed and synthesized by Steglich esterification.

Study of the Antibacterial Activity of Superhydrophilic and Superhydrophobic Copper Substrates against Multi-Drug-Resistant Hospital-Acquired Isolates.

The global spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) hospital-acquired pathogens is a serious problem for healthcare units. The challenge of the spreading of nosocomial infections, also known as hospital-acquired pathogens, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, must be addressed not only by developing effective drugs, but also by improving preventive measures in hospitals, such as passive bactericidal coatings deposited onto the touch surfaces. In this paper, we studied the antibacterial activity of superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic copper surfaces against the strain PA103 and its four different polyresistant clinical isolates with MDR.

Pharmacokinetics, quorum-sensing signal molecules and tryptophan-related metabolomics of the novel anti-virulence drug Fluorothiazinon in a Pseudomonas aeruginosa-induced pneumonia murine model.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection is commonly associated with hospital-acquired infections in patients with immune deficiency and/or severe lung diseases. Managing this bacterium is complex due to drug resistance and high adaptability. Fluorothiazinon (FT) is an anti-virulence drug developed to suppress the virulence of bacteria as opposed to bacterial death increasing host's immune response to infection and improving treatment to inhibit drug resistant bacteria.

Identification of Key Genes Involved in Response to or spp. Infections in Human Cell Lines and in Mouse Organs.

Bacterial infections represent an unsolved problem today since bacteria can evade antibiotics and suppress the host's immune response. A family of TRIM proteins is known to play a role in antiviral defense. However, the data on the involvement of the corresponding genes in the antibacterial response are limited.

Preventative treatment with Fluorothiazinon suppressed Acinetobacter baumannii-associated septicemia in mice.

The high prevalence of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a serious problem in the treatment of nosocomial infections in the past three decades. Recently, we developed a new small-molecule inhibitor belonging to a class of 2,4-disubstituted-4H-[1,3,4]-thiadiazine-5-ones, Fluorothiazinon (FT, previously called CL-55). FT effectively suppressed the T3SS of Chlamydia spp.

Fluorothiazinon, a small-molecular inhibitor of T3SS, suppresses salmonella oral infection in mice.

Therapeutic strategies that target bacterial virulence have received considerable attention. The type III secretion system (T3SS) is important for bacterial virulence and represents an attractive therapeutic target. Recently, we developed a new small-molecule inhibitor belonging to a class 2,4-disubstituted-4H-[1,3,4]-thiadiazine-5-ones, Fluorothiazinon (FT-previously called CL-55).

Small Molecule Inhibitor of Type Three Secretion System Belonging to a Class 2,4-disubstituted-4H-[1,3,4]-thiadiazine-5-ones Improves Survival and Decreases Bacterial Loads in an Airway Infection in Mice.

is a cause of high mortality in burn, immunocompromised, and surgery patients. High incidence of antibiotic resistance in this pathogen makes the existent therapy inefficient. Type three secretion system (T3SS) is a leading virulence system of that actively suppresses host resistance and enhances the severity of infection.
