We previously showed that berberine attenuates MexXY efflux-dependent aminoglycoside resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here, we aimed to synthesize berberine derivatives with higher MexXY inhibitory activities. We synthesized 11 berberine derivatives, of which 13-(2-methylbenzyl) berberine (13-o-MBB) but not its regiomers showed the most promising MexXY inhibitory activity. 13-o-MBB reduced the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of various aminoglycosides 4- to 128 fold for a highly multidrug resistant P. aeruginosa strain. Moreover, 13-o-MBB significantly reduced the MICs of gentamicin and amikacin in Achromobacter xylosoxidans and Burkholderia cepacia. The fractional inhibitory concentration indices indicated that 13-o-MBB acted synergistically with aminoglycosides in only MexXY-positive P. aeruginosa strains. Time-kill curves showed that 13-o-MBB or higher concentrations of berberine increased the bactericidal activity of gentamicin by inhibiting MexXY in P. aeruginosa. Our findings indicate that 13-o-MBB inhibits MexXY-dependent aminoglycoside drug resistance more strongly than berberine and that 13-o-MBB is a useful inhibitor of aminoglycoside drug resistance due to MexXY.

Paragraph 0132-0135, (2016/10/27)
The present invention relates to: novel 8-oxoprotoberberine derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; a method for preparing same; and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same as active ingredient for preventing or treating diseases related to NFAT5 activity. According to the present invention, the novel 8-oxoprotoberberine derivatives or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof is proven to: have an oral absorption rate which is significantly higher thatn than of the prior protoberberine; inhibit NFAT5 activity and secretion of inflammatory cyotokine by directly inhibiting transcription of NFAT5; and reduce expression of NFAT5 in a mouse with rheumarthritis. Therefore, the novel 8-oxoprotoberberine derivatives or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof can be advantageously used as a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating NFTA5 activity-related diseases, particularly rheumarthritis or inflammation disease.(AA) Days after immune response induction(BB) Control group(CC) Example 1COPYRIGHT KIPO 2015
