Abstrakt: | The rise of antimicrobial-resistant bacterial infections is a crucial health concern in the 21st century. In particular, antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes difficult-to-treat infections associated with high morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, the number of effective therapeutic interventions against antimicrobial-resistant P. aeruginosa infections continues to decline. Therefore, discovery and development of alternative treatments are necessary. Here, we present pre-clinical efficacy studies on an anti- P. aeruginosa therapeutic monoclonal antibody. Using hybridoma technology, we generated a monoclonal antibody and characterized its binding to P. aeruginosa in vitro using ELISA and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. We also characterized its function in vitro and in vivo against P. aeruginosa . The anti- P. aeruginosa antibody (WVDC-5244) bound P. aeruginosa clinical strains of various serotypes in vitro , even in the presence of alginate exopolysaccharide. In addition, WVDC-5244 induced opsonophagocytic killing of P. aeruginosa in vitro in J774.1 murine macrophage, and complement-mediated killing. In a mouse model of acute pneumonia, prophylactic administration of WVDC-5244 resulted in an improvement of clinical disease manifestations and reduction of P. aeruginosa burden in the respiratory tract compared to the control groups. This study provides promising pre-clinical efficacy data on a new monoclonal antibody with therapeutic potential for P. aeruginosa infections.
