GNPS Antimicrobial Activity of Rumex crispus using a Multivariate Data Analysis Approach

ABSTRACT: Plants have a long history of use for their medicinal properties. The complexity of botanical extracts presents unique challenges and necessitates the application of innovative approaches to correctly identify and quantify bioactive compounds. With this study, we employed untargeted metabolomics to explore the antimicrobial activity of the botanical Rumex crispus (yellow dock), a member of the Polygonaceae family that is used as an herbal remedy for bacterial infections. Ultra high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass-spectrometry (UPLC-MS) was used to identify and quantify the known antimicrobial compound emodin. In addition, we used biochemometric approaches to integrate data measuring antimicrobial activity from R. crispus root starting material and fractions against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with UPLC-MS data. Our results support the hypothesis that multiple constituents, including the anthraquinone emodin, contribute to the antimicrobial activity of R. crispus against MRSA.

The ‘PepSAVI-MS’ pipeline for natural product bioactive peptide discovery

Project description:The recent increase in extensively drug resistant bacterial pathogens and the associated increase of morbidity and mortality demonstrate the immediate need for new antibiotic backbones with novel mechanisms of action. Here, we report the development of the PepSAVI-MS pipeline for bioactive peptide discovery. This highly versatile platform employs bioinformatics, statistics, and mass spectrometry to identify bioactive peptide targets from complex biological samples. We validate the use of this platform through the successful identification of known bioactive peptides from a botanical species, Viola odorata. Using this pipeline, we have widened the known antimicrobial spectrum for V. odorata cyclotides, including antibacterial activity of cycloviolacin O2 against E. faecium and A. baumannii. We further demonstrate the broad applicability of the platform through the identification of novel anticancer activities for cycloviolacins by their cytotoxicity against ovarian, breast and prostate cancer cell lines.

Targeting senescence induced by age or chemotherapy with a polyphenol-rich natural extract improves longevity and healthspan in mice

Project description:The accumulation of senescent cells within tissues contributes to age-related diseases through the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). To fight senescence and maintain a healthy tissue microenvironment, the quest for longevity-promoting compounds has resulted in promising discoveries from botanical sources. Here we show that daily administration with a low dose of Haenkenium (HK), a standardized extract of Salvia haenkei, extended the lifespan and healthspan of aged C57BL/6 mice by delaying senescence and consequently ameliorating systemic inflammation and fibrosis markers in multiple tissues including skin, muscle, cartilage, and kidney. Additionally, treated aged mice displayed increased muscle strength, vitality, and thicker fur coverage than age-matched controls. Notably, HK treatment also effectively reduced doxorubicin (Doxo)-induced senescence in p16LUC reporter mice and protected against Doxo-induced cardiotoxicity. The composition of HK was analyzed by UPLC-QTOF-MS, which revealed multiple polyphenols that were then screened for their putative anti-senescence activity in vitro. Among these, luteolin, luteolin- 7-O-glucuronide and 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic were identified as HK-derived constituents with comparable activity to HK. Mechanistically, we report that luteolin could disrupt the p16-CDK6 interaction, which was validated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and by in situ proximity ligation assay in vitro. Our findings suggest that phytoconstituents such as luteolin can alter the senescence phenotype by disrupting the activity of p16 which subsequently is associated with improved longevity in mice.

The commensal-derived metabolite butyrate imprints an antimicrobial program in macrophages

Project description:The balance between tolerogenic and inflammatory responses determines immune homeostasis in the gut. Dysbiosis and a defective host defense against invading intestinal bacteria can shift this balance via bacterial-derived metabolites and trigger chronic inflammation. We show that the short chain fatty acid butyrate modulates monocyte to macrophage differentiation by promoting antimicrobial effector functions. The presence of butyrate modulates antimicrobial activity via a shift in macrophage metabolism and reduction in mTOR activity. This mechanism is furthermore dependent on the inhibitory function of butyrate on histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) driving transcription of a set of antimicrobial peptides including calprotectin. The increased antimicrobial activity against several bacterial species is not associated with increased production of conventional cytokines. Butyrate imprints antimicrobial activity of intestinal macrophages in vivo. Our data suggest that commensal bacteria derived butyrate stabilize gut homeostasis by promoting antimicrobial host defense pathways in monocytes that differentiate into intestinal macrophages.

Massively parallel quantification of the regulatory effects of non-coding genetic variation [STARR-seq]

Project description:We report a novel high-throughput method to empirically quantify individual-specific regulatory element activity at the population scale. The approach combines targeted DNA capture with a high-throughput reporter-gene expression assay. As demonstration, we have measured the activity of more than 100 putative regulatory elements from 95 individuals in a single experiment. We found that, in agreement with previous reports, most genetic variants have weak effects on distal regulatory element activity. Because haplotypes are typically maintained within but not between assayed regulatory elements, the approach can be used to identify likely causal regulatory haplotypes that contribute to human phenotypes. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the method to functionally fine map causal regulatory variants in regions of high linkage disequilibrium identified by expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses. 104 candidate regulatory elements from 95 individuals were resequenced using Illumina custom amplicon sequencing. We then cloned the resulting DNA fragments into a massively parallel reporter assay to quantify allele-specific regulatory activity from that population.

Characterization of loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) honey botanical origin according to its chitinase activity

Project description:Bees make honey from the nectar that they collect from flowers. The characteristics of honey are closely associated to original botanical species. Compare with sugars in honey, proteins are minor components but usually used as an important honey quality evaluation parameters. Flower-origin proteins could be a good marker for the authentication. However, as a minute component in honey proteome, plant origin proteins are hard to be detected in honey by regular proteomic approaches, such as gel-based techniques. In this study, Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. (loquat) nectar and its derivative monofloral honey were systematically compared, especially regarding the proteomes and enzymatic activities. Using two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, only bee-originated proteins were detected in loquat honey which were major royal jelly proteins and two uncharacterized proteins. Xylosidase, thaumatin, and two kinds of chitinases were detected in loquat floral nectar by the gel-based proteomic approach. To our knowledge, it is the first study to analysis nectar-originated enzymes’ activity in honey and we proposed that the zymography of chitinase is a potential marker for honey botanical origin authentication.

Too Hot to Handle: Antibacterial Peptides Identified in Ghost Pepper

Project description:Capsicum spp. (hot peppers) demonstrate a range of interesting bioactive properties spanning anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities. While several species within the genus are known to produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), AMP sequence mining of genomic data indicates this space remains largely unexplored. Herein, in silico AMP predictions are paired with peptidomics to identify novel AMPs from the interspecific hybrid ghost pepper (Capsicum chinense x frutescens). AMP prediction algorithms reveal 115 putative AMPs within the Capsicum chinense genome of which 14 were identified in the aerial tissue peptidome. PepSAVI-MS, de novo sequencing, and complementary approaches were used to fully molecularly characterize two novel AMPs, CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2, including elucidation of post-translational modifications and disulfide bond connectivity. Both CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2 have little homology with known AMPs and exhibit low µM antimicrobial activity against gram-negative bacteria including Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. These findings demonstrate the complementary nature of peptidomics, bioactivity-guided discovery, and bioinformatics-based investigations to more fully characterize plant AMP profiles.

Computational Ranking of Yerba Mate Small Molecules Based on Their Predicted Contribution to Antibacterial Activity against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Project description:The aqueous extract of yerba mate, a South American tea beverage made from Ilex paraguariensis leaves, has demonstrated bactericidal and inhibitory activity against bacterial pathogens, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of two unique fractions of yerba mate aqueous extract revealed 8 identifiable small molecules in those fractions with antimicrobial activity. For a more comprehensive analysis, a data analysis pipeline was assembled to prioritize compounds for antimicrobial testing against both MRSA and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus using forty-two unique fractions of the tea extract that were generated in duplicate, assayed for activity, and analyzed with GC-MS. As validation of our automated analysis, we checked our predicted active compounds for activity in literature references and with used authentic standards to test for antimicrobial activity. 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde showed the most antibacterial activity against MRSA at low concentrations in our bioassays. In addition, quinic acid and quercetin were identified using random forests analysis and 5-hydroxy pipecolic acid was identified using linear discriminant analysis. We additionally also generated a ranked list of unidentified compounds that may contribute to the antimicrobial activity of yerba mate against MRSA. Here we utilized GC-MS data to implement an automated analysis that resulted in a ranked list of compounds that likely contribute to the antimicrobial activity of aqueous yerba mate extract against MRSA.

Next-Generation Antimicrobial Discovery through Bacterial Self-Screening of Surface-Displayed Peptide Libraries [MiSeq]

Project description:Peptides have great potential to combat antibiotic resistance. While many platforms can screen peptides for their ability to bind to target cells, there are virtually no platforms that directly assess the functionality of peptides. This limitation is exacerbated when identifying antimicrobial peptides, since the phenotype, death, selects against itself, and has caused a scientific bottleneck confining research to only a few naturally occurring classes of antimicrobial peptides. We have used this seeming dissonance to develop Surface Localized Antimicrobial displaY (SLAY); a platform that allows screening of unlimited numbers of peptides of any length, composition, and structure in a single tube for antimicrobial activity. Using SLAY, we screened ~800,000 random peptide sequences for antimicrobial function and identified thousands of active sequences doubling the number of known antimicrobial sequences. SLAY hits present with different potential mechanisms of peptide action and access to areas of antimicrobial physicochemical space beyond what nature has evolved.
