Abstract:
ABSTRACTThanatin (THA) displays potent antibiotic activity, especially against extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producingEscherichia colibothin vitroandin vivo, with minimal hemolytic toxicity and satisfactory stability in plasma. However, the high cost of thanatin significantly limits its development and clinical application. To reduce the cost of peptide synthesis, a formulation of cyclic thanatin (C-thanatin) called linear thanatin (L-thanatin) was synthesized and its activity was evaluatedin vivoandin vitro. Results showed that C-thanatin and L-thanatin MICs did not differ against eight Gram-negative and two Gram-positive bacterial strains. Furthermore, the survival rates of ESBL-producing-E. coli-infected mice were consistent after C-thanatin or L-thanatin treatment at 5 or 10 mg/kg of body weight. Neither C-thanatin nor L-thanatin showed toxicity for human red blood cells (hRBCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) at a concentration as high as 256 μg/ml. Results of circular dichroism spectroscopy indicated that the secondary structure of L-thanatin is extremely similar to that of C-thanatin. Membrane permeabilization and depolarization assays showed that C-thanatin and L-thanatin have similar abilities to permeabilize the outer and inner membranes and to induce membrane depolarization in ESBL-producingE. coli. However, neither of them caused significant HUVEC membrane permeability. These findings indicate that the two peptides have similar effects on bacterial cell membranes and that the disulfide bond in thanatin is not essential for its antimicrobial activitiesin vivoandin vitro. L-thanatin is thus a promising low-cost peptide candidate for treating ESBL-producingE. coliinfections.

Abstract:
Abstract Thanatin is an inducible 21-residue antimicrobial peptide (AMP) derived from the insect Podisus maculiventris. Thanatin and its analogs have bactericidal activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including antibiotic resistant strains. Due to the lack of hemolytic action, thanatin is a good candidate for therapeutic use, as evidenced by its ability to fight sepsis in mice. However, the mode of action of thanatin remains unexplored. Introduction of the respiratory poison carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP) inhibits AMP induced death, suggesting that the bacterial respiratory pathway is targeted. In this study, biotinylated S-thanatin was used to determine a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in Escherichia coli. Biotinylated S-thanatin showed comparable killing activity to the non-biotinylated peptide, 8μg/mL vs. 4μg/mL, respectively. Next, the killing activity of biotinylated S-thanatin was determined for cultures of E. coli grown under anaerobic, aerobic and respiratory dependent conditions. Anaerobic growth was shown to inhibit thanatin-induced microbial death, and respiratory dependent increased sensitivity. Currently, we are using biotinylated S-thanatin in an affinity purification assay to isolate the intracellular target to be analyzed using matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectroscopy.

Abstract:
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) possess great potential for combating drug-resistant bacteria. Thanatin is a pathogen-inducible single-disulfide-bond-containing β-hairpin AMP which was first isolated from the insect Podisus maculiventris. The 21-residue-long thanatin displays broad-spectrum activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as against various species of fungi. Remarkably, thanatin was found to be highly potent in inhibiting the growth of bacteria and fungi at considerably low concentrations. Although thanatin was isolated around 25 years ago, only recently has there been a pronounced interest in understanding its mode of action and activity against drug-resistant bacteria. In this review, multiple modes of action of thanatin in killing bacteria and in vivo activity, therapeutic potential are discussed. This promising AMP requires further research for the development of novel molecules for the treatment of infections caused by drug resistant pathogens.

Abstract:
Antimicrobial peptides of mastatopara-S (M-S), thanatin, and ponericin W1(P W1) were able to disrupt the membrane integrity and alter the morphology of the hyphae of Geotrichum citri-aurantii and then reduced the sour rot of citrus fruit. In order to understand the mechanisms of thanatin, P W1 and M-S other than membrane disruption, the interaction betwixt the peptides and G. citri-aurantii DNA were investigated in this research. The laser confocal microscopy found that P W1, thanatin, and M-S could penetrate the cell membrane. Gel retardation assay demonstrated that P W1, thanatin, and M-S could bind to the G. citri-aurantii genomic DNA in vitro. UV-visible spectra and fluorescence spectra analysis further confirmed that the peptides can bind to the DNA, and then insert into the base pairs in the DNA helix, followed by wrecking the double-helix structure. In addition, M-S, thanatin, and P W1 can suppress the synthesis of DNA and RNA of G. citri-aurantii.

Abstract:
Background: Thanatin is the smallest member of Beta-hairpin class of cationic peptide derived from insects with vast activities against various pathogens. Objective: n this study, the antimicrobial activity of this peptide against some species of human bacterial pathogens as well as its toxicity on NIH cells were evaluated. Method: Thanatin DNA sequence was cloned into pcDNA3.1+ vector and transformed into a DH5α bacterial strain. Then the recombinant plasmids were transfected into HEK-293 cells by calcium phosphate co-precipitation. After applying antibiotic treatment, the supernatant medium containing thanatin was collected. The peptide quantity was estimated by SDS-PAGE and GelQuant software. The antimicrobial activity of this peptide was performed with Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method. In addition, its toxicity on NIH cells were evaluated by MTT assay. Results: The peptide quantity was estimated approximately 164.21 µmolL-1. The antibacterial activity of thanatin was estimated between 0.99 and 31.58 µmolL-1 using MIC method. The result of cytotoxicity test on NIH cell line showed that the peptide toxicity up to the concentration of 394.10 µmolL-1 and for 48 hours, was not statistically significant from negative control cells (P>0.05). The antimicrobial assay demonstrated that thanatin had an antibacterial effect on some tested microorganisms. The results obtained in this study also showed that thanatin had no toxicity on mammalian cell lines including HEK293 and NIH. Conclusion: Antimicrobial peptides such as thanatin are considered to be appropriate alternatives to conventional antibiotics in treating various human pathological diseases bacteria.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTStaphylococcus epidermidisis one of the most frequent causes of device-associated infections, because it is known to cause biofilms that grow on catheters or other surgical implants. The persistent increasing resistance ofS. epidermidisand other coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) has driven the need for newer antibacterial agents with innovative therapeutic strategies. Thanatin is reported to display potent antibiotic activities, especially against extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producingEscherichia coli. The present study aimed to investigate whether a shorter derivative peptide (R-thanatin) could be used as a novel antibacterial agent. We found that R-thanatin was highly potentin vitroagainst coagulase-negative staphylococci, such asS. epidermidis,S. haemolyticus, andS. hominis, and inhibited biofilm formation at subinhibitory concentrations. Properties of little toxicity to human red blood cells (hRBCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells, a low incidence of resistance, and relatively high stability in plasma were confirmed. Excellentin vivoprotective effects were also observed using a methicillin-resistantS. epidermidis(MRSE)-induced urinary tract infection rat model. Electron microscopy and confocal laser-scanning microscopy analyses suggested that R-thanatin disturbed cell division of MRSE severely, which might be the reason for inhibition of MRSE growth. These findings indicate that R-thanatin is active against the growth and biofilm formation of MRSEin vitroandin vivo. R-thanatin might be considered as a specific drug candidate for treating CoNS infections.

Abstract:
With the increasing resistance of many Gram-negative bacteria to existing classes of antibiotics, identifying new paradigms in antimicrobial discovery is an important research priority. Of special interest are the proteins required for the biogenesis of the asymmetric Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane (OM). Seven Lpt proteins (LptA to LptG) associate in most Gram-negative bacteria to form a macromolecular complex spanning the entire envelope, which transports lipopolysaccharide (LPS) molecules from their site of assembly at the inner membrane to the cell surface, powered by adenosine 5′-triphosphate hydrolysis in the cytoplasm. The periplasmic protein LptA comprises the protein bridge across the periplasm, which connects LptB2FGC at the inner membrane to LptD/E anchored in the OM. We show here that the naturally occurring, insect-derived antimicrobial peptide thanatin targets LptA and LptD in the network of periplasmic protein-protein interactions required to assemble the Lpt complex, leading to the inhibition of LPS transport and OM biogenesis inEscherichia coli.

Abstract:
Aim of study: Antimicrobial peptides and monoterpenes are safe compounds that have been used for control of many plant diseases. Herein, the effects of two recombinant antibacterial peptides (AMPs) were compared with two monoterpenes for control of Erwinia amylovora directly or via induction of plant defense enzyme guaiacol peroxidase (GPOD).Area of study: The experiments were performed at the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (Iran).Material and methods: The central composite design (CCD) method was used to study the effect of mixing the compounds and copper compound (Nordox) in controlling the pathogen. The resistance level was studied on shoots of tolerant (‘Dargazi’) and semi-susceptible (‘Spadona’) pear cultivars treated with the antibacterial compounds.Main results: Thanatin and 1,8-cineole showed the highest and lowest antibacterial effects. All treatments reduced E. amylovora pathogenicity on blossom. The CCD analysis revealed that the best reduction in colony number obtained by mixing Lfc, thanatin, thymol, 1,8-cineole and Nordox at concentrations of 32, 16, 24, 250 and 250 μg/mL. Thymol and 1,8-cineole at 500 μg/mL decreased disease severity significantly compared to that of AMPs. The level of GPOD enzyme in ‘Dargazi’ was higher than in ‘Spadona’. All treatments increased the GPOD levels in both cultivars. Furthermore, resistance level and GPOD ratio were negatively correlated.Research highlights: Antimicrobial peptides showed better effect on growth inhibition of E. amylovora than monoterpenes. Mixing of these peptides and monoterpens at special dosage enhanced their antimicrobial efficacy against E. amylovora; that could represent a new method in control of fire blight disease.

Abstract:
Global rise of infections and deaths caused by drug-resistant bacterial pathogens are among the unmet medical needs. In an age of drying pipeline of novel antibiotics to treat bacterial infections, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are proven to be valid therapeutics modalities. Direct in vivo applications of many AMPs could be challenging; however, works are demonstrating encouraging results for some of them. In this review article, we discussed 3-D structures of potent AMPs e.g., polymyxin, thanatin, MSI, protegrin, OMPTA in complex with bacterial targets and their mode of actions. Studies on human peptide LL37 and de novo-designed peptides are also discussed. We have focused on AMPs which are effective against drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Since treatment options for the infections caused by super bugs of Gram-negative bacteria are now extremely limited. We also summarize some of the pertinent challenges in the field of clinical trials of AMPs.
