A series of substituted di-indolglyoxylamido-spermine analogues were prepared and evaluated for intrinsic antimicrobial properties and the ability to enhance antibiotic action. As a compound class, intrinsic activity was typically observed towards Gram-positive bacteria and the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans, with notable exceptions being the 5-bromo- and 6-chloro-indole analogues which also exhibited modest activity (MIC 34-50 μM) towards the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Several analogues enhanced the activity of doxycycline towards the Gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, K. pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii. Of particular note was the identification of five antibiotic enhancing analogues (5-Br, 7-F, 5-Me, 7-Me, 7-OMe) which also exhibited low to no cytotoxicity and red blood cell haemolytic properties. The mechanisms of action of the 5-Br and 7-F analogues were attributed to the ability to disrupt the integrity of, and depolarize, bacterial membranes.
