Project description:Transcriptome analysis plays a central role in elucidating the complexity of gene expression regulation in Escherichia coli. By analyzing the transcriptomics of E. coli treated with water, acetone, and Cinnamomum camphora essential oil, the inhibitory mechanism of the essential oil on the human intestinal microbe was studied. The results showed that the inhibitory effect of the essential oil on E. coli increased with an increase in concentration; 1/4 minimum inhibitory concentration was the reaction equilibrium point. RNAseq transcriptomic comparison indicated that the essential oil inhibited the growth of E. coli by inhibiting the metabolism, chemotaxis, and some resistance reactions of them, while E. coli maintained its life activities by enhancing its resistance reactions. These results are of great importance to the study of the medical use of C. camphor essential oil and gene regulation in E. coli under stress conditions.

Project description:BackgroundTranscriptome analysis plays a central role in elucidating the complexity of gene expression regulation in Escherichia coli. In recent years, the overuse of antibiotics has led to an increase in antimicrobial resistance, which greatly reduces the efficacy of antibacterial drugs and affects people's health. Therefore, several researchers are focused on finding other materials, which could replace or supplement antibiotic treatment.MethodsE. coli was treated with water, acetone and Cinnamomum camphora essential oils, respectively. The antibacterial activity was assessed using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), the dry weight and the wet weight of the cells. To explore the antibacterial mechanism of the oil, the RNA-Seq analysis was adopted under three different treatments. Finally, the expression of related genes was verified by Quantitative PCR.ResultsIn this study, we showed that the C. Camphora essential oil exerted a strong antibacterial effect. Our results showed that the inhibitory efficiency increased with increasing of the concentration of essential oil. RNA-seq analysis indicated that the essential oil inhibited the growth of E. coli by inhibiting the metabolism, chemotaxis, and adhesion, meanwhile, life activities were maintained by enhancing E. coli resistance reactions. These results are contributed to uncover the antimicrobial mechanisms of essential oils against E. coli, and the C. Camphora essential oil could be applied as an antibacterial agent to replace or ally with antibiotic.

Project description:Bacterial biofilms are believed to be principal virulence factors for many localized chronic infectious diseases. Escherichia coli is one of the most common microbial pathogens and frequently causes biofilm-associated opportunistic infections, such as diarrhea, endometritis and mastitis. Cinnamomum camphora essential oil (CCEO) has shown potential in treating intractable chronic endometritis in dairy cows. There is little scientific evidence regarding the effect of CCEO on bacterial biofilms. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of CCEO on E. coli biofilm formation and how CCEO affects E. coli in suspension and in a biofilm. CCEO killed all clinical E. coli strains in either planktonic or biofilm state isolated from dairy cows with clinical endometritis. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for 90% of the organisms was 4.297 ?L/mL, the minimum bactericidal concentration for 90% of the organisms was 6.378 ?L/mL, the minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration for 90% of the organisms was 6.850 ?L/mL, and the minimum biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) for 90% of the organisms was 8.467 ?L/mL. The MBECs were generally two times higher than the MICs. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed that significant bacterial killing occurred during the first 1 h after exposure to subinhibitory concentrations of CCEO. In addition, CCEO exerted a significant inhibitory effect on E. coli biofilm formation, and bacterial killing occurred during the first 30 min of exposure to subinhibitory biofilm concentrations of CCEO. The biofilm yield of E. coli was significantly reduced after CCEO treatment, along with an increased dead/live microbial ratio in biofilms compared with that in the non-treated control, as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy images and confocal laser scanning microscopy images. These data revealed that CCEO efficiently kills E. coli during planktonic growth and biofilm formation.

Project description:Cinnamomum camphora (Linn.) Presl has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine for a variety of purposes. Our previous study indicated the antibacterial mechanism of the essential oil (EO) from C. camphora leaves; however, its anti-inflammatory activity and the underlying mechanism have not been clearly demonstrated. Thus, the present study investigated its anti-inflammatory property. Our data revealed that EO significantly decreased the release of nitric oxide (NO) and the mRNA expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced BV2 microglial cells. EO also attenuated LPS-induced increase in the mRNA expression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-18, IL-1? and tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?). Furthermore, the metabolic profiles of LPS-induced BV2 microglial cells treated with or without EO were explored. Thirty-nine metabolites were identified with significantly different contents, including 21 upregulated and 18 downregulated ones. Five pathways were enriched by shared differential metabolites. Compared with the control cells, the glucose level was decreased, while the lactate level was increased, in the culture supernatant from LPS-stimulated cells, which were reversed by EO treatment. Moreover, compared to the LPS-treated group, the activities of phosphofructokinase (PFK) and pyruvate kinase (PK) in EO group were decreased. In summary, the current study demonstrated that EO from C. camphora leaves acts as an anti-inflammatory agent, which might be mediated through attenuating the glycolysis capacity of microglial cells.
