| Targets |
Cyclacillin targets bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). This binding inhibits the transpeptidation reaction during peptidoglycan synthesis, a critical step in bacterial cell wall formation. By disrupting cell wall integrity, Cyclacillin leads to bacterial lysis and cell death. Its mechanism is bactericidal. The compound is a β-lactam antibiotic.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Cyclacillin (0-125 μg/mL) suppresses a number of infections excluding Klebsiella and Enterobacteriaceae, with MIC values ranging from 0.24 μg/mL to 7.8 μg/mL[1].
In vitro, Cyclacillin displays broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. As a penicillin derivative, it is expected to be effective against susceptible strains of Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and various Gram-negative organisms. Its in vitro activity is typically assessed by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against clinical isolates. |
| ln Vivo |
Mice given a single dose of cyclacillin (0–287 mg/kg) exhibit oral activity and recover from injections of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria [1]. Rat intestinal tissue absorbs cicracillin (10 mg/kg; intravenous injection; single dose) at comparatively low concentrations (less than 1 mg/mL), exhibiting solely Michaelis-Menten kinetics [2].
In vivo, Cyclacillin is effective in treating bacterial infections in animal models and has been used clinically for various infections. It is an orally bioactive antibiotic. The compound's in vivo efficacy is related to its ability to achieve therapeutic concentrations in plasma and tissues, as well as its bactericidal activity against the infecting organisms. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In cell-free assays, Cyclacillin's activity is evaluated by measuring its ability to inhibit the transpeptidase activity of penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Purified PBPs are incubated with a fluorescent or radiolabeled substrate in the presence of varying concentrations of Cyclacillin. The inhibition of substrate binding or enzymatic activity is measured, and the IC50 or binding affinity is calculated.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based experiments with Cyclacillin involve standard antimicrobial susceptibility testing using the broth microdilution method. Bacterial cultures (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli) are grown in Mueller-Hinton broth and incubated with serial two-fold dilutions of the antibiotic in 96-well plates. After 16-20 hours of incubation at 35°C, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is determined as the lowest concentration that inhibits visible bacterial growth.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments with Cyclacillin typically involve mouse models of systemic infection. Mice are infected with a lethal dose of a pathogenic bacterium (e.g., Streptococcus pneumoniae or Escherichia coli) and then treated with Cyclacillin administered orally or parenterally at various doses. The survival rate is monitored over a period of several days, and the 50% effective dose (ED50) is calculated.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Moderate absorption. Cyclacillin is an orally bioavailable aminopenicillin. It was designed to offer enhanced oral bioavailability and improved patient compliance compared to traditional penicillins. Its pharmacokinetic properties include good absorption from the gastrointestinal tract and distribution to various tissues. The compound is excreted primarily via the kidneys. No specific PK parameters (e.g., half-life, Cmax) are provided in the search results. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Cyclacillin is generally well-tolerated as a penicillin antibiotic. Common adverse effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, hypersensitivity reactions (including rash and anaphylaxis), and, rarely, hematological effects. As with other penicillins, it is contraindicated in patients with a history of penicillin allergy. The compound is for research use only and is not intended for human therapeutic use outside of approved indications.

| Additional Infomation |
Cyclacillin is a penicillin antibiotic with antibacterial activity. It is a cyclohexylamide analog of penicillinic acid. Cyclacillin is a semi-synthetic β-lactam aminocyclohexylpenicillin antibiotic. Cyclacillin has bactericidal activity by binding to specific penicillin-binding proteins, thereby inhibiting transpeptidation during peptidoglycan synthesis. This leads to the disruption of bacterial cell wall structure, causing bacterial cell wall instability and ultimately cell lysis. Cyclacillin is sensitive to β-lactamases. It is a cyclohexylamide analog of penicillin. Indications: Used to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible bacteria. Mechanism of Action: Cyclacillin's bactericidal activity derives from its affinity for penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), thereby inhibiting cell wall synthesis. Cyclacillin is stable in the presence of various β-lactamases, including penicillinases and certain cephalosporinases. Pharmacodynamics: Cyclacillin is a penicillin, a cyclohexylamide analog of penicillinic acid. Compared to ampicillin, Cyclacillin is more resistant to β-lactamase hydrolysis and has a higher oral absorption rate. Therefore, at the same dose, the concentration of Cyclacillin in blood and urine is much higher than that of ampicillin. Cyclacillin has been replaced by newer penicillin drugs.
Cyclacillin is a semi-synthetic aminopenicillin antibiotic with a molecular formula of C15H23N3O4S and a molecular weight of 341.43. It is also known as Ciclacillin or Wy-4508. The compound is a derivative of ampicillin designed for improved oral bioavailability. It has been used in both human and veterinary medicine. It is available for research purposes only and is not currently marketed in many countries. |
