New beta-1,3-glucan synthase inhibitor (BU-4794F) was isolated from the culture broth of Gilmaniella sp. FA4459. Structural studies indicated that it was a novel member of the papulacandin group of antibiotics.

The in vivo anti-Candida activities of 1,3-beta-D-glucan synthesis inhibitors L-671,329, L-646,991 (cilofungin), L-687,901 (tetrahydroechinocandin B), and L-687,781 (a papulacandin analog) were evaluated by utilizing a murine model of disseminated candidiasis that has enhanced susceptibility to Candida albicans but increased sensitivity for discriminating antifungal efficacy. DBA/2 mice were challenged intravenously with 1 x 10(4) to 5 x 10(4) CFU of C. albicans MY1055 per mouse. Compounds were administered intraperitoneally at concentrations ranging from 1.25 to 10 mg/kg of body weight twice daily for 4 days. At 6 h and 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 9 days after challenge, five mice per group were sacrificed and their kidneys were homogenized and plated for enumeration of Candida organisms (CFU per gram). Progressiveness of response trends and no-statistical-significance-of-trend doses were derived to rank compound efficacy. 1,3-beta-D-Glucan synthesis 50% inhibitory concentrations were determined by using a C. albicans (MY1208) membrane glucan assay. Candida and Cryptococcus neoformans MICs and minimal fungicidal concentrations were determined by broth microdilution. L-671,329, L-646,991, L-687,901, and L-687,781 showed similar 1,3-beta-D-glucan activities, with 50% inhibitory concentrations of 0.64, 1.30, 0.85, and 0.16 micrograms/ml, respectively. Data from in vitro antifungal susceptibility studies showed that L-671,329, L-646,991, and L-687,901 had similar MICs ranging from 0.5 to 1.0 micrograms/ml, while L-687,781 showed slightly higher MICs of 1.0 to 2.0 micrograms/ml for C. albicans MY1055. Lipopeptide compounds were ineffective against C. neoformans strains. Results from in vivo experiments comparing significant trend and progressiveness in response analyses indicated that L-671,329 and L-646,991 were equipotent but slightly less active than L-687-901, while L-687,781 was ineffective at 10 mg/kg. Fungicidal activities of L-671,329, L-646,991, and L-687,901 were observed in vivo, with significant reduction in Candida CFU per gram of kidneys compared with those in sham-treated mice at doses of > or = 2.5 mg/kg evident as early as 1 day after challenge.
3. Characterization of echinocandin-resistant mutants of Candida albicans: genetic, biochemical, and virulence studies
M B Kurtz, G Abruzzo, A Flattery, K Bartizal, J A Marrinan, W Li, J Milligan, K Nollstadt, C M Douglas Infect Immun. 1996 Aug;64(8):3244-51. doi: 10.1128/iai.64.8.3244-3251.1996.
The pneumocandins are potent antifungal agents of the echinocandin class which are under development for use as broad-spectrum antimycotic therapy. One important consideration for any new therapeutic class for treating serious fungal infections is the potential for drug resistance development. In this study we have isolated and characterized four independent spontaneous Candida albicans mutants resistant to the potent semisynthetic pneumocandin L-733,560. These mutants have many of the properties of FKS1/ETG1 echinocandin-resistant mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, including (i) cross-resistance to other 1,3-beta-D-glucan synthase inhibitors, such as papulacandin and echinocandins, but no change in sensitivity to other antifungal agents; (ii) in vitro glucan synthase activity that is more resistant to pneumocandins than the wild-type parent enzyme; and (iii) semidominant drug resistance in spheroplast fusion strains. The mutants were compared with C. albicans echinocandin-resistant mutants isolated by mutagenesis by L. Beckford and D. Kerridge (mutant M-2) (abstr. PS3.11, in Proceedings of the XI Congress of the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology, Montreal, Canada, 1992) and by A. Cassone, R. E. Mason, and D. Kerridge (mutant CA-2) (Sabouraudia 19:97-110, 1981). All of the strains had resistant enzyme activity in vitro. M-2 grew poorly and had low levels of enzyme activity. In contrast, CA-2 and the spontaneous mutants grew as well as the parents and had normal levels of glucan synthase activity. These results suggest that these resistant mutants may have alterations in glucan synthase. CA-2 was unable to form germ tubes, an ability retained by the spontaneous mutants. The virulence of the spontaneous mutants was unimpaired in a mouse model of disseminated candidiasis, while M-2 and CA-2 were 2 orders of magnitude less virulent than their parent strains. Significantly, mice challenged with the spontaneous mutant CAI4R1 responded therapeutically to lower levels of L-733,560 than would he predicted by the increase in in vitro susceptibility.
