Unique MoA and broad spectrum Gram-negative activity
• Arenicin has dual mode of action and is bactericidal– Bacterial membrane penetration– Protein synthesis inhibition– No haemolytic or cytotoxic activity in mammalian cells
• Broad spectrum activities against a wide range of XDR Gram negative pathogens
• Wide therapeutic window. 50 – 200 fold difference between effective dose and MTD in vivo
• Very low spontaneous mutational frequency and resistance• 21 AA peptide synthesized by standard solid phase synthesis

Arenicin-3 and the cell membrane -MoA
A. E. coli exposed for 30 min to wt and stained with TRITC. Treatment with wt results in influx of TRITC into the E. coli
B. E. coli exposed for 30 min with TRITC labelled wt. Clusters of wt were localized in the bacterial membrane
At OD600 =0.4 E.coli cells were exposed to 32ug/ml Arenicin, 64ug/ml Fosfomycin and 16ug/ml Polymycin B. Even at very high concentration of Arenicin-3, no dramatic morphological changes of the cells were observed.
