Abstract

A novel 16-membered-ring macrolide agent (CP-163,505, a reductive amination derivative of repromicin) was identified as an antibacterial against Pasteurella haemolytica, P. multocida and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, important etiological agents of livestock respiratory disease. In vitro MIC50/90 analysis revealed that CP-163,505 was more potent (4x) than tilmicosin against P. multocida, and equivalent to tilmicosin against P. haemolytica and A. pleuropneumoniae. In time kill kinetic studies, CP-163,505 showed bactericidal activity against P. haemolytica, P. multocida and A. pleuropneumoniae and bacteriostatic activity against E. coli at 8 times its MIC. In vitro, CP-163,505 was more potent in alkaline pH (16 approximately 32 x ) and less potent in the presence of excess cations (Mg+2 and Ca+2, 4x). EDTA and PMBN increased CP-163,505 potency against E. coli (4x) but not against the other species. Similar results were obtained with erythromycin A and tilmicosin, which were used as controls. From our data, we hypothesize that Pasteurella and Actinobacillus have an outer membrane significantly different from that of the typical enteric Gram-negative bacterium E. coli.
