Intracellular solutes were released from growing or resting cells of Bacillus megaterium as a consequence of hexachlorophene treatment. The effect was dose dependent, with the optimum at a concentration about sevenfold greater than the minimal lethal dose. The effects of pH and temperature on the leakage process also were inconsistent with the killing effects of the drug. The types of materials released appeared to be the same with or without hexachlorophene treatment. The released materials were small molecules which apparently derived from preexisting ribonucleic acid and protein, but not from deoxyribonucleic acid. Compared to the effects of other representative surface-active agents and other bis-phenols, hexachlorophene was superior in ability to cause leakage of intracellular materials. Different microorganisms varied in their susceptibility to hexachlorophene, with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and a paracolon isolate the most resistant of the vegetative cells examined. It was concluded that the release of intracellular solutes was an effect secondary to the lethal event and presumably arose from hexachlorophene-mediated stimulation of degradative enzymes. 相似文献

Hexachlorophene was found to be both a lytic and a fixative agent for protoplasts isolated from Bacillus megaterium. Concentrations of 50 to 100 mug of drug per mg of original cell dry weight were required to lyse 4.4 x 10(9) protoplasts (2 mg of original cell dry weight). At higher drug concentrations, protoplasts became fixed against osmotic stress and reduced in sensitivity to disruption by n-butanol. Lower drug concentrations caused proportionate lysis in the protoplast population. Intact cells lost the ability to become plasmolyzed at these same hexachlorophene concentrations. Nonplasmolyzed, drug-treated cells were resistant to the action of lysozyme, whereas plasmolyzed, drug-treated cells were sensitive. But the sensitivity of isolated cell walls to lysozyme digestion was not markedly altered by hexachlorophene treatment. These effects appeared to be secondary in the killing of cells by hexachlorophene because they occurred at concentrations higher than the minimum lethal concentration. 相似文献

Experiments reported here demonstrate that hexachlorophene influences oxidation-reduction events inside the brain membrane, possibly via a free radical mechanism. This was shown by nitroxide spin label quenching inside the rat cerebellum membrane bilayer due to the interaction between hexachlorophene and peroxidase-hydrogen peroxide system. Prior addition of antioxidants, e.g., vitamin E or butylated hydroxytoluene, prevented such membrane-bound fatty acid spin label reduction, presumably due to their free radical scavenging abilities. The 5-doxyl stearic acid spin probe attached to the brain membranes did not exhibit any detectable changes in their ESR spectra nor, consequently, in the microviscosity of the membranes when exposed to up to 40 mM hexachlorophene. 相似文献

Steady-state kinetics, equilibrium binding, and primary substrate kinetic isotope effect studies revealed that the reduction of crotonyl-CoA by NADH, catalyzed by Haemophilus influenzae enoyl-ACP reductase (FabI), follows a rapid equilibrium random kinetic mechanism with negative interaction among the substrates. Two biphenyl inhibitors, triclosan and hexachlorophene, were studied in the context of the kinetic mechanism. IC(50) values for triclosan in the presence and absence of NAD(+) were 0.1 +/- 0.02 and 2.4 +/- 0.02 microM, respectively, confirming previous observations that the E-NAD(+) complex binds triclosan more tightly than the free enzyme. Preincubation of the enzyme with triclosan and NADH suggested that the E-NADH complex is the active triclosan binding species as well. These results were reinforced by measurement of binding kinetic transients. Intrinsic protein fluorescence changes induced by binding of 20 microM triclosan to E, E-NADH, E-NAD(+), and E-crotonyl-CoA occur at rates of 0.0124 +/- 0.001, 0.0663 +/- 0.002, 0.412 +/- 0.01, and 0.0069 +/- 0.0001 s(-1), respectively. The rate of binding decreased with increasing crotonyl-CoA concentrations in the E-crotonyl-CoA complex, and the extrapolated rate at zero concentration of crotonyl-CoA corresponded to the rate observed for the binding to the free enzyme. This suggests that triclosan and the acyl substrate share a common binding site. Hexachlorophene inhibition, on the other hand, was NAD(+)- and time-independent; and the calculated IC(50) value was 2.5 +/- 0.4 microM. Steady-state inhibition patterns did not allow the mode of inhibition to be unambiguously determined, but binding kinetics suggested that free enzyme, E-NAD(+), and E-crotonyl-CoA have similar affinity for hexachlorophene, since the k(obs)s were in the same range of 20-24 s(-1). When the E-NADH complex was mixed with hexachlorophene ligand, concentration-independent fluorescence quenching at 480 nm was observed, suggesting at least partial competition between NADH and hexachlorophene for the same binding site. Mutual exclusivity studies, together with the above-discussed results, indicate that triclosan and hexachlorophene bind at different sites of H. influenzae FabI. 相似文献

Septisol antiseptic foam (0.23% hexachlorophene in a 46% ethyl alcohol base) is a new surgical scrub agent for both primary and re-entry use that is designed to minimize the harsh effects to the skin of the conventional scrub while retaining effective antibacterial properties. A preliminary surgical scrub study of 1-week duration yielded an immediate reduction in resident flora of 92% from an average single scrub coupled with a residual bacteriostatic effect from repeated use that gave a plateau at 57% of the pretest resident population level. A separate study demonstrated complete elimination of both gram-positive and gram-negative transients from the skin with a single application of the product. In an 8-week surgical scrub study, equal effectiveness was shown between Septisol antiseptic foam and a standard 3% hexachlorophene detergent. However, Septisol antiseptic foam offers considerable advantage in minimizing the harsh effects to the skin of the conventional surgical scrub and results in a substantially lower hemic level of hexachlorophene in the user than that obtained with 3% hexachlorophene detergent. Sampling was conducted by the fingerprint impression plate technique of Gale. 相似文献

Inhibition of the Staphylococcus aureus NADPH-dependent enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase by triclosan and hexachlorophene 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (FabI) plays a determinant role in completing cycles of elongation in type II fatty acid synthase systems and is an important target for antibacterial drugs. The FabI component of Staphylococcus aureus (saFabI) was identified, and its properties were compared with Escherichia coli FabI (ecFabI). ecFabI and saFabI had similar specific activities, and saFabI expression complemented the E. coli fabI(Ts) mutant, illustrating that the Gram-positive FabI was interchangeable with the Gram-negative FabI enzyme. However, ecFabI was specific for NADH, whereas saFabI exhibited specific and positive cooperative binding of NADPH. Triclosan and hexachlorophene inhibited both ecFabI and saFabI. The triclosan-resistant ecFabI(G93V) protein was also refractory to hexachlorophene inhibition, illustrating that both drugs bind at the FabI active site. Both the introduction of a plasmid expressing the safabI gene or a missense mutation in the chromosomal safabI gene led to triclosan resistance in S. aureus; however, these strains did not exhibit cross-resistance to hexachlorophene. The replacement of the ether linkage in triclosan by a carbon bridge in hexachlorophene prevented the formation of a stable FabI-NAD(P)(+)-drug ternary complex. Thus, the formation of this ternary complex is a key determinant of the antibacterial activity of FabI inhibitors. 相似文献

Hexachlorophene-induced hemolysis, as studied by phase contrast microscopy, appeared to be a result of osmotic swelling. Both swelling and subsequent hemolysis were markedly delayed by addition of the non-penetrating solute sucrose to the incubation mixture. Binding studies indicated that hexachlorophene is associated primarily with the erythrocyte membrane, the remainder being found in the cytoplasm. Hexachlorophane induced a dose-dependent, first-order efflux of Na+ and K+ from red cells. The rates of hemolysis and K+ efflux induced by hexachlorophene were much greater than would be expected if this compound were acting simply as a metabolic inhibitor and/or an inhibitor of (Na+-K+-Mg2+)-ATPase. It is suggested that hexachlorophene induces the efflux of Na+ and K+ from red cells by directly altering the permeability of the cellular membrane. Further, hexachlorophene-induced hemolysis is probably a secondary event resulting from osmotic swelling subsequent to increased membrane permeability. 相似文献

Hexachlorophene is a soap-compatible bisphenol that has been widely used as an antiseptic, yet its mechanism of action is undefined. The relative threshold concentration for bactericidal effect on a susceptible test organism, Bacillus megaterium, was established to be about 10 mug/mg of cell dry weight. At this or at high (>/=100 mug/mg) concentration, adsorptive uptake by cells displayed saturation kinetics. At about 30 mug/mg, the time course of adsorption occurred in three distinct stages. The triphasic pattern was interpreted to represent successive penetration of and adsorption by the cell wall, the protoplast membrane, and the cytoplasm. This interpretation was substantiated by determinations of hexachlorophene adsorption by isolated cell components. Electron microscopy disclosed cytopathology, evidenced as gaps or discontinuities, in the protoplast membrane (but not in the cell wall or cytoplasm) at > 30 mug of hexachlorophene per mg of cell dry weight. Similarly, treatment with > 30 mug/mg allowed a fluorescigenic dye (tolyl-peri acid) to penetrate into the protoplast. However, no detectable cytological manifestations were discerned at the minimum lethal concentration of 10 mug/mg. Apparently, hexachlorophene is physically disruptive at intermediate or high relative concentrations but acts in a more subtle fashion at the minimal lethal concentration. 相似文献

Gram-negative bacteria representing nine genera were screened for their ability to survive surface exposure to polyethylene sheet plastic containing chemically compounded hexachlorophene (0.25%). Subcultures were made at hourly intervals over a 6-hr period of time. An exceedingly large drop in viable cells beginning at the 1-hr exposure was noted for each genus except one tested on the hexachlorophene-plastic, whereas most nonadditive controls grew bacterial colonies too numerous to count. 相似文献

The influence of ultraviolet (UV) light on the structural and functional states of the complement factor C4 was investigated using hemolytic and acid-base titration, PAG electrophoresis, and IR and UV spectrophotometry. UV doses of 75.5 and 755 J/m2 initiated C4 activation through changes in the globule structure (increased number of aromatic amino acids and ionogenic groups at the surface). The maximal dose of 2265 J/m2 has a destructive effect and decreases its C4 activity in the cascade of hemolytic reactions of the complement system. 相似文献

The biochemical properties of the enzyme responsible for nematode "activated L-serine sulphydrase" activity (L-cysteine + R-SH----cysteine thioether + H2S) have been investigated using primarily the gastro-intestinal nematodes Nippostrongylus brasiliensis and Haemonchus contortus. The activated L-serine sulphydrase enzyme was found to be cytosolic in origin and exhibited maximal activity at pH 9.0. Enzyme activity was widely distributed amongst the major tissues of adult female Ascaris suum but was particularly abundant in longitudinal muscle. The enzyme appeared to have a rigid specificity for L-cysteine as the primary thiol substrate, but was capable of utilising a number of sulphur amino acids (and derivatives) and nonphysiological thiols as second substrates. The best second thiol substrates were nonphysiological, hydroxyl-containing thiols that showed some structural similarity to the standard second substrate, 2-mercaptoethanol. Kinetic analyses revealed that the enzyme operates by a sequential catalytic mechanism, and the absolute Michaelis constants were: KL-cysteine = 0.21 +/- 0.02 mM and K2-mercaptoethanol = 5.58 +/- 0.59 mM. The enzyme was relatively insensitive to inhibition by a variety of substrate analogues and known inhibitors of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate dependent enzymes, whilst plant phenols caused significant levels of inhibition. The most potent inhibitors discovered were the anthelmintics bithionol, dichlorophene and hexachlorophene. Further characterisation revealed that hexachlorophene was a parabolic competitive inhibitor of the activated L-serine sulphydrase enzyme. 相似文献

Glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) is the ER resident 70 kDa heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and has been hypothesized to be a therapeutic target for various forms of cancer due to its role in mitigating proteotoxic stress in the ER, its elevated expression in some cancers, and the correlation between high levels for GRP78 and a poor prognosis. Herein we report the development and use of a high throughput fluorescence polarization-based peptide binding assay as an initial step toward the discovery and development of GRP78 inhibitors. This assay was used in a pilot screen to discover the anti-infective agent, hexachlorophene, as an inhibitor of GRP78. Through biochemical characterization we show that hexachlorophene is a competitive inhibitor of the GRP78-peptide interaction. Biological investigations showed that this molecule induces the unfolded protein response, induces autophagy, and leads to apoptosis in a colon carcinoma cell model, which is known to be sensitive to GRP78 inhibition. 相似文献

Nosocomial outbreaks of rotaviral gastroenteritis are a common occurrence. Although proper disinfection practices in the hospital environment are considered to be important in the prevention and control of such outbreaks, very little information has been available on the rotavirus-inactivating capacity of chemical disinfectants and antiseptics commonly used in hospitals. In view of this, 11 such products were selected and screened for their capacity to bring about at least a 3 log10 reduction in the plaque titre of rotavirus SA-11 after a contact time of 1-30 min. Consept "D" (1:100), D.R.X. (1:80), Dustbane Germicidal (1:80), Hibitane, and Wescodyne (1:200) were found to be ineffective under these test conditions even in the absence of an added organic load. The virucidal capacity of Savlon (1:200) and Zephiran was completely neutralized when single-strength tryptose phosphate broth was added to the virus-disinfectant mixture to simulate an organic load. Cidex (2% acid glutaraldehyde), Proviodine (10% solution of povidone-iodine), Septisol (0.75% hexachlorophene), and Sana Rinse (70% isopropylalcohol, 0.1% hexachlorophene) were able to produce at least a 3 log10 (99.9%) reduction in the virus plaque titre even in the presence of added organic matter. These findings should be of help in the prevention and control of outbreaks of rotaviral diarrhea in the hospital environment. 相似文献

Tolytoxin, a macrocyclic lactone, is a potent antifungal antibiotic, exhibiting MICs in the range of 0.25 to 8 nanomolar.
Tolytoxin also inhibits the growth of a variety of mammalian cells at similar doses, without specific inhibition of macromolecular
synthesis. The effects in mammalian cells are primarily cytostatic, with cell death being time-and dose-dependent. Tolytoxin
is highly toxic to mice, exhibiting an LD50 (ip) of 1.5 mg/kg. No antibacterial, antiviral, or hemolytic activities were observed. 相似文献

Two irgasan-resistant micro-organisms (P. aeruginosa and S. marcescens) were used to study the effects of various antibiotic and chemotherapeutic agents on pigment production. These agents included streptomycin, thallium acetate, polymyxin B, hexachlorophene, irgasan, prodigiosin and DMSO (dimethyl sulphoxide). Only irgasan, compared to other drugs and membrane-active agents showed the unique property of inducing pigmentation in both P. aeruginosa and S. marcescens, i.e. prodigiosin in S. marcescens and pyocyanin in P. aeruginosa. 相似文献

Strain 89 of Clostridium botulinum type G, isolated by Gimenez and Ciccarelli in 1969, was characterized culturally, biochemically, and toxigenically. It was motile, hemolytic asaccharolytic, weakly proteolytic, lipase and lecithinase negative, and it produced acetic, isobutyric, butyric, and isovaleric acids in peptone-yeast extract-glucose broth. No spores were seen in smears from solid or liquid media. Very low levels of toxin were produced in regular broth cultures, but dialysis cultures yielded 30,000 mouse 50% mean lethal doses (LD50 per kg, orally and subcutaneously, respectively; and for guinea pigs, 10,000 to 20,000 and 100 mouse LD50 per kig, intragastrically and intraperitoneally, respectively. 相似文献

Brain succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity was inhibited by in vitro hexachlorophene (HCP) with a half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 0.65 x 10(-3) M. The HCP exerted noncompetitive inhibition at 0.5 mM (IC50) on SDH activity. The brain SDH demands more energy of activation (deltaE) in the presence of HCP. The ionizable groups of SDH such as the sulfhydral group of cysteine and alpha-amino groups of cysteine were not altered qualitatively in the presence of HCP. 相似文献

A comparison of hexachlorophene and Lactacyd on growth of skin flora in healthy term newborn infants
Reports of toxicity from the routine bathing of newborn infants with hexachlorophene resulted in discontinuing its use in the newborn nurseries of the Ottawa Civic Hospital, only to be followed by an outbreak of skin infections. As a result, a controlled trial of bathing newborn babies with either Lactacyd or pHisoHex was begun. The efficacy of the soaps was evaluated by comparing the colonization of the nose and umbilical cords of 158 pHisoHex-washed babies and 156 Lactacyd-washed babies on the day of discharge from hospital. The gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial flora of nose and cord of infants washed with pHisoHex and Lactacyd were identical in frequency and distribution. 相似文献
