Production of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) in bacterial pathogens is an important cause of resistance to the ‘last-resort’ carbapenem antibiotics. Development of effective MBL inhibitors to reverse carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacteria is still needed. We herein report X-ray structure-guided optimization of 1H-imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (ICA) derivatives by considering how to engage with the active-site flexible loops and improve penetration into Gram-negative bacteria. Structure-activity relationship studies revealed the importance of appropriate substituents at ICA 1-position to achieve potent inhibition to class B1 MBLs, particularly the Verona Integron-encoded MBLs (VIMs), mainly by involving ingenious interactions with the flexible active site loops as observed by crystallographic analyses. Of the tested ICA inhibitors, 55 displayed potent synergistic antibacterial activity with meropenem against engineered Escherichia coli strains and even intractable clinically isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing VIM-2 MBL. The morphologic and internal structural changes of bacterial cells after treatment further demonstrated that 55 crossed the outer membrane and reversed the activity of meropenem. Moreover, 55 showed good pharmacokinetic and safety profile in vivo, which could be a potential candidate for combating VIM-mediated Gram-negative carbapenem resistance.

We describe here our attempts to optimise the human fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibition and physicochemical properties of our previously reported tetrasubstituted azetidine urea FAAH inhibitor, VER-156084. We describe the SAR of a series of analogues and conclude with the demonstration of in vivo dose-dependant FAAH inhibition in an anandamide-loading study in rats.
