Abstract
Background: FimH inhibitors are anticipated to serve as preventive therapeutics against urinary tract infections. Consequently, multiple inhibitors-predominantly D-mannose derivatives-have been synthesized, and their binding affinities (determined by dissociation coefficient; KD) to FimH have been examined in vitro. Nevertheless, the amounts of most of these synthetic compounds that reach the urinary tract after oral administration in humans have not been investigated. D-mannose (Man) and its analog, 1-Deoxymannose (DM), have already been reported to show KD values against FimH. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the post-oral ingestion of FimH inhibitory potentials of DM and Man in the urinary tract.
Methods: Six participants were given single 1 g doses of DM and Man in a crossover test. The sample concentrations in urine were measured 8 h after ingestion.
Results: DM levels increased rapidly after oral intake; contrarily, Man was detected in the urine before administration, with no notable increase post-ingestion. The peak concentration ranges of Man and DM in urine were 2.15-22.9 μg/mL and 665-57,804 μg/mL, respectively, which are 66.3-707 and 3600-31,200 times that of KD, respectively.
Conclusions: These results indicate that DM as a supplement is an orally active FimH inhibitor in the human urinary tract. Conversely, d-mannose is expected to exert comparatively milder inhibition.

期刊介绍:
Antibiotics (ISSN 2079-6382) is an open access, peer reviewed journal on all aspects of antibiotics. Antibiotics is a multi-disciplinary journal encompassing the general fields of biochemistry, chemistry, genetics, microbiology and pharmacology. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of papers.
