Abstrakt: Mycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb) drug resistance poses an alarming threat to global tuberculosis control. We previously reported that C10, a ring-fused thiazolo-2-pyridone, inhibits Mtbrespiration, blocks biofilm formation, and restores the activity of the antibiotic isoniazid (INH) in INH-resistant Mtbisolates. This discovery revealed a new strategy to address INH resistance. Expanding upon this strategy, we identified C10 analogues with improved potency and drug-like properties. By exploring three heterocycle spacers (oxadiazole, 1,2,3-triazole, and isoxazole) on the ring-fused thiazolo-2-pyridone scaffold, we identified two novel isoxazoles, 17hand 17j. 17hand 17jinhibited Mtbrespiration and biofilm formation more potently with a broader therapeutic window, were better potentiators of INH-mediated inhibition of an INH-resistant Mtbmutant, and more effectively inhibited intracellular Mtbreplication than C10. The (−)17jenantiomer showed further enhanced activity compared to its enantiomer and the 17jracemic mixture. Our potent second-generation C10analogues offer promise for therapeutic development against drug-resistant Mtb.
