| Targets |
BC-7013 targets the bacterial ribosome, specifically the 50S subunit, which is the mechanism of action for pleuromutilin antibiotics. Pleuromutilins bind to the 50S ribosomal subunit and inhibit protein synthesis by preventing the formation of peptide bonds. This leads to bacterial cell death. BC-7013 has excellent activity against gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, including Clostridia, group A streptococci, and group B streptococci.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
BC-7013 demonstrates a MIC50 value of 0.015 µg/mL and baseline inhibitory activity against 303 strains of Staphylococcus aureus[2]. With MIC90 values of 0.03 μg/ml and 0.06 μg/ml, respectively, BC-7013 exhibits significant activity against Group A streptococci and Group B cocci [2].
In vitro, BC-7013 shows excellent activity against group A streptococci and group B streptococci, with MIC90 values of 0.03 µg/mL and 0.06 µg/mL, respectively. It has antimicrobial activity that inhibits the activity of gram-positive pathogenic bacteria. The compound's potent activity against clinically relevant gram-positive pathogens makes it a promising candidate for the treatment of skin and respiratory infections. In cell-based assays, BC-7013 inhibits bacterial growth in a dose-dependent manner. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, BC-7013 has been potentially developed for the treatment of clostridial infection. It can be used in the study of skin and respiratory infections. However, specific in vivo data, such as efficacy in animal models of infection, are not detailed in the available literature. As a pleuromutilin antibiotic, it is expected to be effective against gram-positive pathogens in vivo, but further studies are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cellular in vitro assays for BC-7013 involve determining its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against bacterial strains. A standard protocol uses the broth microdilution method. A series of two-fold dilutions of BC-7013 is prepared in 96-well plates. Bacterial inoculum (e.g., S. pyogenes, S. agalactiae, C. difficile) is added to each well. The plates are incubated at 37°C for 18-24 hours. The MIC is the lowest concentration of BC-7013 that inhibits visible bacterial growth. The MIC90 values are determined as the concentration required to inhibit 90% of the bacterial isolates.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for BC-7013 are performed using bacterial cell cultures. Bacteria are grown in liquid culture medium and treated with BC-7013 at various concentrations. Bacterial growth is measured by monitoring optical density at 600 nm (OD600) over time. The compound's bactericidal or bacteriostatic activity is assessed by plating serial dilutions of the treated cultures on agar plates and counting colony-forming units (CFU) after incubation. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) is determined.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for BC-7013 are conducted in rodent models of bacterial infection. Mice or rats are infected with a pathogenic bacterium (e.g., S. pyogenes, C. difficile) via intraperitoneal, intravenous, or oral administration. BC-7013 is administered orally or intravenously at doses such as 5-50 mg/kg. Survival rates, bacterial load in organs, and clinical signs of infection are monitored. The efficacy of BC-7013 is compared to other antibiotics. However, specific published protocols are limited in the available literature.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
BC-7013 has a molecular weight of 500.7 g/mol and a molecular formula of C29H40O5S. It is a small molecule with drug-like properties. For in vivo studies, it can be formulated in standard vehicles. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and clearance have not been fully reported. However, its potential for the treatment of clostridial infection suggests it has sufficient bioavailability to exert its effects.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Detailed toxicological data for BC-7013 have not been extensively reported. As a research chemical, it is not intended for human use and is strictly for preclinical research purposes. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling BC-7013, including the use of personal protective equipment. No specific toxicity data, such as LD50 values, are available in the provided literature.
