The discovery of safe and efficient inhibitors against efflux pumps as well as metallo-β-lactamases (MBL) is one of the main challenges in the development of multidrug-resistant (MDR) reversal agents which can be utilized in the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. In this study, we have identified that introduction of an ethylene-linked sterically demanding group at the 3-OH position of the previously reported MDR reversal agent di-F-Q endows the resulting compounds with hereto unknown multitarget inhibitory activity against both efflux pumps and broad-spectrum β-lactamases including difficult-to-inhibit MBLs. A molecular docking study of the multitarget inhibitors against efflux pump, as well as various classes of β-lactamases, revealed that the 3-O-alkyl substituents occupy the novel binding sites in efflux pumps as well as carbapenemases. Not surprisingly, the multitarget inhibitors rescued the antibiotic activity of a carbapenem antibiotic, meropenem (MEM), in NDM-1 (New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase-1)-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), and they reduced MICs of MEM more than four-fold (synergistic effect) in 8–9 out of 14 clinical strains. The antibiotic-potentiating activity of the multitarget inhibitors was also demonstrated in CRE-infected mouse model. Taken together, these results suggest that combining inhibitory activity against two critical targets in MDR Gram-negative bacteria, efflux pumps, and β-lactamases, in one molecule is possible, and the multitarget inhibitors may provide new avenues for the discovery of safe and efficient MDR reversal agents.
