Invasive fungal infections pose a crucial threat to public health and are an under-recognized component of antimicrobial resistance, which is an emerging crisis worldwide. Here we designed and synthesized a panel of multi-arm ε-polylysines (ε-mPLs, nR-Km) with a precise number of n = 3-6 arms of ε-oligo(L-lysine)s and a precise arm length of m = 3-7 ε-lysine residues. ε-mPLs have good biocompatibility and exhibited broad-spectrum antifungal activities towards Aspergillus, Mucorales and Candida species, and their antifungal activities increased with residue arm length. Among these ε-mPLs, 3R-K7 showed high antifungal activity against C. albicans with a MIC value of as low as 24 μg mL-1 (only 1/16th that of ε-PL) and also exhibited similar antifungal activity towards the clinically isolated multi-drug resistant (MDR) C. albicans strain. Furthermore, 3R-K7 could inhibit the formation of C. albicans biofilms and kill the cells within mature C. albicans biofilms. Mechanistic studies proved that 3R-K7 killed fungal cells by entering the cells to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induce cell apoptosis. An in vivo study showed that 3R-K7 significantly increased the survival rate of mice in a systemic murine candidiasis model, demonstrating that ε-mPL has great potential as a new antifungal agent.
