- The use of the microplate alamar blue assay (MABA) to assess the susceptibility of Mycobacterium lepraemurium to anti-leprosy and other drugs.

One particular example of this concerns the etiologic agent Mycobacterium lepraemurium (MLM). MLM is a fastidious microorganism that is difficult to grow in axenic media; in a way, this has hampered attempts to thoroughly study its physiological and metabolic characteristics. MLM is an obligate intracellular bacillus that invades macrophages and replicates profusely with a generation time that oscillates between 0.5 and 11 days. In the present study, we have successfully maintained MLM alive for more than 12 days in vitro, providing us with an opportunity to study its susceptibility to several anti-leprosy agents and other drugs. To achieve this, we used a fluorescence reduction assay of alamar blue (a resazurin) in a microplate format (microplate-alamar-blue-assay; MABA), which is a highly sensitive, practical, and inexpensive method for assaying cell viability. We found that MLM was highly susceptible to clofazimine and rifampicin and was less susceptible to streptomycin, thiacetazone, kanamycin, dapsone, and ethionamide, in that order. MLM was not susceptible to four plant triterpenoids (oleanolic acid, neolignan-c, sitosterol, and ursolic acid) for which bactericidal activity has been reported in M. tuberculosis. Because the MABA has high sensitivity, it can be used to monitor the activity of microorganisms that are difficult to cultivate (such as M. lepraemurium), in response to various drugs, thus offering a method to complement the study of murine leprosy, about which many questions remain unanswered.

- Apoptosis-inducing activity of clofazimine in macrophages.
- Fukutomi Y1, Maeda Y, Makino M.Author information 1Leprosy Research Center, National Institute of Infectious Diseases, 4-2-1, Aoba-cho, Higashimurayama-shi, Tokyo 189-0002, Japan. fukutomi@nih.go.jpAbstractClofazimine is a riminophenazine compound which has been used for the treatment of leprosy since the 1960s. Although the drug is effective in the management of leprosy reactions because of its anti-inflammatory activity, the mechanism leading to the cessation of inflammation is not well understood. In the present study, it was shown that clofazimine exhibits apoptosis-inducing activity in macrophages. When human monocyte-derived macrophages were cultured in vitro in the presence of clofazimine, the cells exhibited a marked decrease in metabolic activity and showed shrinkage in cell size, indicating cell death. Nuclear condensation and fragmentation were also observed by Giemsa and Hoechst 33248 stains. The endonuclease inhibitor ZnCl(2) inhibited the clofazimine-induced cell death. Significant enhancement of caspase-3 activity was observed in clofazimine-treated macrophages and THP-1 cells. Collectively, these results suggest the apoptosis-inducing activity of clofazimine in macrophages, which may also be responsible for the antibacterial properties of clofazimine.
