Antibacterial Activity and Multi-Targeting Mechanism of Dehydrocorydaline From Corydalis turtschaninovii Bess. Against Listeria monocytogenes.

ABSTRACT: Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen, with relatively low incidence but high case-fatality. Phytochemicals have been recognized as a promising antimicrobial agent as an alternative to synthetic chemicals due to their safety and high efficacy with multi-target sites. This study identified and characterized a novel antibacterial agent, dehydrocorydaline, in the Corydalis turschaninovii rhizome using HPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap-HRMS, and its antibacterial effect with lowest MIC (1 mg/mL) and MBC (2 mg/mL) values. In addition, an in vitro growth kinetic assay, cytoplasmic nucleic acid and protein leakage assay, and observation of morphological changes in bacterial cells supported the strong antibacterial activity. Dehydrocorydaline also displayed effective inhibitory effects on biofilm formation and bacterial motility. In order to investigate the potential antibacterial mechanism of action of dehydrocorydaline against L. monocytogenes, label-free quantitative proteomics was used, demonstrating that dehydrocorydaline has multiple targets for combating L. monocytogenes including dysregulation of carbohydrate metabolism, suppression of cell wall synthesis, and inhibition of bacterial motility. Overall, this study demonstrated that dehydrocorydaline has potential as a natural and effective antibacterial agent with multi-target sites in pathogenic bacteria, and provides the basis for development of a new class of antibacterial agent.

Multi-Target Antibacterial Mechanism of Moringin From Moringa oleifera Seeds Against Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:Moringin [4-(α-L-rhamnosyloxy) benzyl isothiocyanate] is an isothiocyanate from Moringa oleifera seeds. It is the bioactivated form of the glucosinolate precursor glucomoringin with various health benefits. However, few studies have examined the antibacterial activity of moringin. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial activity and mechanism of moringin against Listeria monocytogenes. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and growth curves were used to evaluate the bacteriostatic effect of moringin against L. monocytogenes. Transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing was performed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of moringin against L. monocytogenes. The transcriptome results were validated. The results showed that moringin inhibited the growth of L. monocytogenes with a MIC of 400 μM. RNA sequencing results showed that the differences in the expression of genes related to the cell wall and membrane biosynthesis, phosphotransferase system (PTS), oxidative stress, energy metabolism, and DNA binding were significantly affected. As with the transcriptome results, the results of the mechanism verification found that moringin damaged the integrity of the cell wall and cell membrane, stimulated oxidative stress, interfered with energy metabolism and DNA replication, and finally led to the death of L. monocytogenes. The present study provides evidence that moringin exhibits strong antimicrobial activity against L. monocytogenes and insight into its potential mechanism.

Antibacterial Efficacy and Mechanism of Mannosylerythritol Lipids-A on Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:Mannosylerythritol lipids-A (MEL-A) is a novel biosurfactant with excellent surface activity and potential biomedical applications. In this study, we explored the antibacterial activity and the underlying mechanisms of MEL-A against the important food-borne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. The bacterial growth and survival assays revealed a remarkable antibacterial activity of MEL-A. Since MEL-A is a biosurfactant, we examined the cell membrane integrity and morphological changes of MEL-A-treated bacteria by biochemical assays and flow cytometry analysis and electron microscopes. The results showed obvious damaging effects of MEL-A on the cell membrane and morphology. To further explore the antibacterial mechanism of MEL-A, a transcriptome analysis was performed, which identified 528 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed that the gene categories of membrane, localization and transport were enriched among the DEGs, and the analysis of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways demonstrated significant changes in the maltodextrin ABC transporter system and stress response system. Furthermore, the growth of L. monocytogenes could also be significantly inhibited by MEL-A in milk, a model of a real food system, suggesting that MEL-A could be potentially applied as an natural antimicrobial agent to control food-borne pathogens in the food industry.

Silver As Antibacterial toward Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is a serious foodborne pathogen that can contaminate food during processing and can grow during food shelf-life. New types of safe and effective food contact materials embedding antimicrobial agents, like silver, can play an important role in the food industry. The present work aimed at evaluating the in vitro growth kinetics of different strains of L. monocytogenes in the presence of silver, both in its ionic and nano form. The antimicrobial effect was determined by assaying the number of culturable bacterial cells, which formed colonies after incubation in the presence of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) or silver nitrate (AgNO3). Ionic release experiments were performed in parallel. A different reduction of bacterial viability between silver ionic and nano forms was observed, with a time delayed effect exerted by AgNPs. An association between antimicrobial activity and ions concentration was shown by both silver chemical forms, suggesting the major role of ions in the antimicrobial mode of action.

Herein, quantitative proteomic analysis was performed to investigate the molecular mechanism of antibacterial action of dehydrocorydaline against L. monocytogenes. Taking together with proteomic results, we found that dehydrocorydaline influenced on the global proteomic alteration of L. monocytogenesis associated with carbohydrate metabolism, energy metabolism, cell wall synthesis, and bacterial motility, suggesting multiple target sites of dehydrocorydaline to inactivate bacterial growth. This study demonstrated that dehydrocorydaline has potential as a natural and effective antibacterial agent with multi-target sites in pathogenic bacteria, and provides the basis for development of a new class of antibacterial agent.

Intestinal P glycoprotein acts as a natural defense mechanism against Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:Mechanisms by which the intestinal epithelium resists invasion by food-borne pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes are an evolving area of research. Intestinal P glycoprotein is well known to limit the absorption of xenobiotics and is believed to act as a cytotoxic defense mechanism. The aim of this study was to determine if intestinal P glycoprotein is involved in host defense against L. monocytogenes. Caco-2 cells and a P-glycoprotein-overexpressing subclone (Caco-2/MDR) were employed in addition to mdr1a(-/-) mice and wild-type controls. In vitro invasion assays and in vivo experiments were employed to measure bacterial invasion and dissemination. In addition, L. monocytogenes proteins were labeled with [(35)S]methionine, and the transepithelial transport across Caco-2 monolayers was characterized in both directions. Overexpression of P glycoprotein in Caco-2/MDR cells led to increased resistance to L. monocytogenes invasion, whereas P-glycoprotein inhibition led to increased invasion. Flux of [(35)S]methionine-labeled L. monocytogenes proteins was significantly greater in the basolateral-to-apical direction than in the apical-to-basolateral direction, indicating dependence on an apically located efflux transporter. Moreover, inhibiting P glycoprotein reduced the basolateral-to-apical flux of the proteins. Early dissemination of L. monocytogenes from the gastrointestinal tract was significantly greater in the mdr1a(-/-) mice than in wild-type controls. Expression and function of intestinal P glycoprotein is an important determinant in resistance to early invasion of L. monocytogenes.

Antibacterial Activity of Pediocin and Pediocin-Producing Bacteria Against Listeria monocytogenes in Meat Products.

Project description:One of the most important challenges in the food industry is to produce healthy and safe food products, and this could be achieved through various processes as well as the use of different additives, especially chemical preservatives. However, consumer awareness and concern about chemical preservatives have led researchers to focus on the use of natural antimicrobial compounds such as bacteriocins. Pediocins, which belong to subclass IIa of bacteriocin characterized as small unmodified peptides with a low molecular weight (2.7-17 kDa), are produced by some of the Pediococcus bacteria. Pediocin and pediocin-like bacteriocins exert a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, especially against pathogenic bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes through formation of pores in the cytoplasmic membrane and cell membrane dysfunction. Pediocins are sensitive to most protease enzymes such as papain, pepsin, and trypsin; however, they keep their antimicrobial activity during heat treatment, at low temperatures even at -80°C, and after treatment with lipase, lysozyme, phospholipase C, DNase, or RNase. Due to the anti-listeria activity of pediocin on the one hand and the potential health hazards associated with consumption of meat products on the other hand, this review aimed to investigate the possible application of pediocin in preservation of meat and meat products against L. monocytogenes.

Dehydrocorydaline Accounts the Majority of Anti-Inflammatory Property of Corydalis Rhizoma in Cultured Macrophage.

Project description:Corydalis Rhizoma (CR) is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine for its potency in activating blood circulation and analgesia. In clinic, CR extracts or components are commonly used in the treatment of myocardial ischemia, rheumatism, and dysmenorrhea with different types of inflammation. However, due to different mechanism of pain and inflammation, the anti-inflammatory property of CR has not been fully revealed. Here, the major chromatographic peaks of CR extracts in different extracting solvents were identified, and the anti-inflammatory activities of CR extracts and its major alkaloids were evaluated in LPS-treated macrophages by determining expressions of proinflammatory cytokines, IκBα and NF-κB. The most abundant alkaloid in CR extract was dehydrocorydaline, having >50% of total alkaloids. Besides, the anti-inflammatory activities of dehydrocorydaline and its related analogues were demonstrated. The anti-inflammatory roles were revealed in LPS-treated cultured macrophages, including (i) inhibiting proinflammatory cytokines release, for example, TNF-α, IL-6; (ii) suppressing mRNA expressions of proinflammatory cytokines; (iii) promoting IκBα expression and suppressing activation of NF-κB transcriptional element; and (iv) reducing the nuclear translocation of NF-κB. The results supported that dehydrocorydaline was the major alkaloid in CR extract, which, together with its analogous, accounted the anti-inflammatory property of CR.

In Vitro Antibacterial Activity of Phlorotannins from Edible Brown Algae, Eisenia bicyclis Against Streptomycin-Resistant Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes (LM) is an important food borne pathogen responsible for listeriosis. Further, LM is an etiological agent associated with life threatening conditions like meningitis and encephalitis. Biofilm forming and drug resistant LM may potentially become difficult to treat infections and hence effective controlling measures are required to prevent LM infections. In view of this, the present study evaluated an anti-listerial potential of edible brown seaweed, Eisenia bicyclis, by disc diffusion and micro-dilution methods. The results of the present study suggested that the anti-listerial activity of various phlorotannins isolated form E. bicyclis were in the range of 16-256 µg/ml. Among the phlorotannins isolated, fucofuroeckol-A (FAA) exhibited the highest anti-listerial potential (MIC range 16-32 µg/ml) against LM strains tested. Further, in checker board synergy assays, FFA-streptomycin combination exhibited significant synergy (fractional inhibitory concentration index, ?FIC < 0.5) against aminoglycoside resistant clinical strains of LM. The results of the present study suggested the potential use of edible seaweed E. bicyclis as a source of natural phlorotannins to control food borne pathogenic infections.

Multi-virulence-locus sequence typing of Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:A multi-virulence-locus sequence typing (MVLST) scheme was developed for subtyping Listeria monocytogenes, and the results obtained using this scheme were compared to those of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and the published results of other typing methods, including ribotyping (RT) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). A set of 28 strains (eight different serotypes and three known genetic lineages) of L. monocytogenes was selected from a strain collection (n > 1,000 strains) to represent the genetic diversity of this species. Internal fragments (ca. 418 to 469 bp) of three virulence genes (prfA, inlB, and inlC) and three virulence-associated genes (dal, lisR, and clpP) were sequenced and analyzed. Multiple DNA sequence alignment identified 10 (prfA), 19 (inlB), 13 (dal), 10 (lisR), 17 (inlC), and 16 (clpP) allelic types and a total of 28 unique sequence types. Comparison of MVLST with automated EcoRI-RT and PFGE with ApaI enzymatic digestion showed that MVLST was able to differentiate strains that were indistinguishable by RT (13 ribotypes; discrimination index = 0.921) or PFGE (22 profiles; discrimination index = 0.970). Comparison of MVLST with housekeeping-gene-based MLST analysis showed that MVLST provided higher discriminatory power for serotype 1/2a and 4b strains than MLST. Cluster analysis based on the intragenic sequences of the selected virulence genes indicated a strain phylogeny closely related to serotypes and genetic lineages. In conclusion, MVLST may improve the discriminatory power of MLST and provide a convenient tool for studying the local epidemiology of L. monocytogenes.

Antibacterial and antivirulence effect of 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine in Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:The emerging development of antibiotic resistant bacteria calls for novel types of antibacterial agents. In this work we examined the putative antibacterial effect of purine analogs in Listeria monocytogenes. We show that, among several tested purine analogs, only 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (6-N-HAP) reduces the viability of the Gram-positive pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. As in Bacillus subtilis, 6-N-HAP terminates expression at guanine riboswitches in L. monocytogenes hence preventing expression of their downstream genes. However, we show that the bacteriocidal effect of the compound was unlinked to the terminated expression at the guanine riboswitches. When further examining the antimicrobial effect, we observed that 6-N-HAP acts as a potent mutagen in L. monocytogenes, by increasing the mutation rate and inducing the SOS-response. Also, addition of 6-N-HAP decreased virulence gene expression by reducing both the levels and activity of the virulence regulator PrfA.
