Anti-virulence factor-IN-2 (compound C7) is an inhibitor targeting the virulence factor KpsM in Escherichia coli. kpsM mediates the translocation of capsular polysaccharides to the cell surface, allowing kpsM-positive E. coli to escape the phagocytosis of the scavenger receptor Marco on liver Kupffer cells, leading to bacterial dissemination. kpsM-positive E. coli exacerbates ethanol-induced liver disease. Anti-virulence factor-IN-2 can inhibit the ethanol-induced liver disease model caused by kpsM-dependent capsid in mice and has anti-infective activity. Anti-virulence factor-IN-2 can be used for the study of alcoholic hepatitis[1].
