4 Why do we wish to look at intracellular activity of antibiotics? Beyond truly obligate intracellular parasites (e.g., Legionella, Chlamydia, Mycobacteriae, many more "common" bacteria are facultative (e.g. Listeria) or occasional (e.g. Staphylococci, Pseudomonas ) intracellular parasites These bacteria form a reservoir from where bacteria may escape causing relapses and recurrences of the infection Natural defenses often restrict their growth and decrease their persistence, but not always You may need to help host defenses with antibiotics 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 4

69 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D 1 D 1. Penetration This is obvious: no penetration = no activity ex.: aminoglycosides in short term exposures 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 69
70 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D 1 D 2 1. Penetration 2. No efflux Also obvious: efflux decreases the intracellular concentration ex.: fluoroquinolones (MRP4), macrolides (Pgp) 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 70
71 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D 1 2 D 3 1. Penetration 2. No efflux 3. Accumulation Much less obvious no simple correlation accumulation-activity ex.: fluoroquinolones, macrolides, β-lactams 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 71
72 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D* D 1 D Penetration 2. No efflux 3. Accumulation 4. Subcell. bioavailability This is probably the most critical property ex.: fluoroquinolones, oxazolidinones vs macrolides and aminoglycosides 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 72
73 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D* D 1 D Interesting aspect but could vary for drugs and bugs one + example: intracellular MRSA and conventional β-lactams (not shown in this lecture) 1. Penetration 2. No efflux 3. Accumulation 4. Subcell. bioavailability 5. Expression of activity 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 73
74 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D* D 1 D Probably critical to explain the noneradication or part of the intracellular inoculum future therapeutic targets? 1. Penetration 2. No efflux 3. Accumulation 4. Subcell. bioavailability 5. Expression of activity 6. Bacterial responsiveness (population) 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 74
75 The seven pillars of intracellular activity? D 1 D D* Penetration 2. No efflux 3. Accumulation Not addressed 4. Subcell. bioavailability 6 here but probably very important 7 5. Expression of activity 6. Bacterial responsiveness and pharmacodynamics 7. Cooper. with host def. 19 November 2015 PKUK - Chester, UK 75
