GC-072
GC-072 is an orally active, 4-oxoquinolizine antibiotic that selectively inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and Topo IV enzymes. GC-072 does not inhibit human topoisomerases I and II. GC-072 demonstrates strong antimicrobial activity against various bacterial strains, including Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and resistant bacteria. GC-072 also exhibits bactericidal activity against Burkholderia pseudomallei both extracellularly and intracellularly, leading to dose-dependent survival in mice exposed to lethal inhalational models of B. pseudomallei infection. GC-072 can be used for the research of melioidosis.

Biological Activity
|
DNA Gyrase 2 μM (IC50, S. aureus) |
TOPO IV 4-30 μM (IC50, S. aureus) |
DNA Gyrase 0.18-1.5 μM (IC50, E.coli) |
TOPO IV 4.22-8.45 μM (IC50, E.coli) |
GC-072 (0.25 μg/mL, 2.5 μg/mL; 0, 1, 5, 24 hours) effectively inhibits the growth of intracellular B. pseudomallei in murine macrophage cells in a rapid time- and dose-dependent manner, with no viable bacteria detectable after 24 hours at either concentration[1].
GC-072 inhibits both E.coli and S. aureus gyrase and Topo IV. The IC50 values of 2 μM, 0.18-1.50 μM, 4-30 μM, and 4.22-8.45 μM for S. aureus gyrase, E.coli gyrase, S. aureus Topo IV, and E.coli Topo IV, respectively[1].
GC-072 demonstrates good activity against B. pseudomallei, with an MIC90 of 0.25 μg/mL and a range of ≤0.008 to 1 μg/mL[1].
The MIC90s of GC-072 against B. anthracis, Y. pestis, F. tularensis, and B. mallei are 0.002 μg/mL, 0.015 μg/mL, ≤0.0005 μg/mL, and 0.12 μg/mL, respectively[1].
GC-072 is fully active against the panel of drug-resistant B. pseudomallei strains tested (i.e., Ceftazidime (HY-B0593)-, Clavulanate (HY-A0256A)- and Trimethoprim (HY-B0510)-resistant strains)[1].

Animal Model:BALB/c (Female, 6 to 8 weeks, 19.75 g) (infected with B. pseudomallei strain 1026b via aerosol challenge)[1]
-
Dosage:1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg
-
Administration:oral (gavage); 1, 3, 10, 30 mg/kg; q8h; 14 days
-
Result:When treatment was initiated 8 h postchallenge, 0%, 0%, 70%, and 90% survival was observed in mice administered 1, 3, 10, and 30 mg/kg, respectively.
When treatment was initiated 16 h postchallenge, 50% and 100% survival was observed in the 10 and 30 mg/kg groups, respectively.

-
Dosage:37.5 mg/kg, 75 mg/kg, 150 mg/kg
-
Administration:oral (gavage); 37.5, 75, 150 mg/kg; q8h; 14 days
-
Result:When initiated 8 h postexposure, mice in the 37.5-, 75-, and 150-mg/kg treatment groups demonstrated 90%, 90%, and 80% survival, respectively.
In the 24-h treatment initiation groups, overall survival was low. However, each dose provided a significant survival advantage compared to vehicle control.
