Phylogenetic identification of epibiotic bacteria possessing antimicrobial activities isolated from red algal species of Japan

We investigated the diversity of epibiotic bacteria possessing antimicrobial activity isolated from nine species of red algae, and identified their phylogenetic position. For the isolation of epibiotic bacteria, nine species of red algae, Pachymeniopsis lauceolata, Plocamium telfairiae, Gelidium amansii, Chondrus oncellatus, Grateloupia filicina, Ceramium kondoi, Lomentaria catenata, Schizymenia dubyi and Porphyra yezoensis, were collected from the intertidal zone of Awaji Island, Japan. In total 92 bacteria were collected from the above red algal species. Primary screening results using disc diffusion assay revealed that 33% of bacteria possess antibacterial activity. Ten bacteria that showed high antibacterial activity were further studied for their ability to inhibit a set of fouling bacteria, some luminescent Vibrio and Photobacterium species and a panel of pathogenic bacteria. In general, the inhibitory activities were high against fouling and luminescent bacteria, while low against various pathogenic bacteria tested. These results suggest that some epibiotic bacteria have adapted to defend their position in their surface environment through the production of antibacterial metabolites giving defense against a broad spectrum of bacterial competitors. The phylogenetic analysis using 16 S rRNA sequences identified 7 of the 10 strains as belonging to the genus Bacillus, and other strains each 1 belonging to genus Microbacterium, Psychrobacter, and Vibrio species.     

Antibacterial potential of Nidus vespae built by invasive alien hornet,Vespa velutina nigrithorax,against food‐borne pathogenic bacteria

The yellow‐legged hornet, Vespa velutina nigrithorax, is an invasive social wasp found in temperate regions and is recognized as a hazardous insect, as it often attacks humans and honeybees. Nidus vespae (nests of social wasps) are traditionally used as a medicinal ingredient; thus, V. v. nigrithorax may be useful as a biological resource. Extracts of Nidus vespae built by V. v. nigrithorax were examined for their antibacterial activity screening against six food‐borne pathogenic bacteria, and the ethyl acetate and butanol layer of the extract exhibited inhibitory activity against the pathogenic bacteria. We determined the antibacterial activity of Nidus vespae built by V. v. nigrithorax for the first time.     

Antibacterial potential of hGlyrichin encoded by a human gene

Emerging multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria are an enormous threat to human life because of their resistance to currently available antibiotics. The genes encoding antibacterial peptides have been studied extensively and are excellent candidates for a new generation of antibiotic drugs to fight MDR bacteria. In contrast to traditional antibiotics, antibacterial peptides, which do not cause drug resistance, have an unparalleled advantage. However, because most antibacterial peptides originate in species other than humans, the hetero‐immunological rejection of antibacterial peptides is a key disadvantage that limits their clinical application. In this study, we identify hGlyrichin as a potential human antibacterial polypeptide. The hGlyrichin polypeptide kills a variety of bacteria including the MDR bacteria methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus, MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and MDR tubercle bacillus. A 19 amino acid peptide (pCM19) at positions 42–60 of hGlyrichin is crucial for its antibacterial activity. The hGlyrichin polypeptide kills bacteria through the destruction of the bacterial membrane. In addition, all peptides that are homologous to hGlyrichin have antibacterial activity and can penetrate the bacterial membrane. Importantly, hGlyrichin does not cause hemolytic side effects in vitro or in vivo. Therefore, based on the virtues of hGlyrichin, i.e., the absence of hetero‐immunological rejection and hemolytic side effects and the unambiguous efficacy of killing pathogenic MDR bacteria, we propose hGlyrichin as a potential human antibacterial polypeptide.

Antimicrobial activity of LFchimera synthetic peptide against plant pathogenic bacteria

The present study was designed to evaluate potential antibacterial activities of synthetic LFchimera against five plant pathogenic bacteria such as Ralstonia solanacearum, Erwinia amylovora, Xanthomonas campestris, Pseudomonas syringae and Pectobacterium carotovorum. The agar disc-diffusion method with different concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 μM) of peptide was used to study the antibacterial activity of LFchimera against bacteria. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the LFchimera peptide were tested using serial dilution method at concentration ranging from 0 to 10 μM. The Results from agar disc-diffusion method revealed that LFchimera was effective against all bacterial strain in a dose-dependent manner. LFchimera showed highest activity in 0.8 μM which was significant compared to the standard antibiotic. LFchimera pepetide showed low MIC values (4 μM) against all tested bacteria. LFchimera peptide was found to show antibacterial activity against important phytopathogenic bacteria and can improve the potential of an antimicrobial peptide in plant disease management.

Cross-species induction of antibacterial activity produced by epibiotic bacteria isolated from Indian marine sponge Pseudoceratina purpurea

Four antibiotic producing bacteria were isolated from the surface of the marine sponge Pseudoceratina purpurea and exposed to living cells of two human pathogenic bacteria as well as some marine fouling bacteria to induce the production of antimicrobial activity. Experimental results showed that these four marine epibiotic bacteria enhanced their antibacterial production, when exposed to these test strains. The highest induction was exhibited by the sponge isolate PS79 against fouling bacterium FB-9 (from 3 mm to 7 mm inhibition zone). All the four strains were induced and showed increased activity specifically against the challenged pathogenic or fouling bacteria tested. Specific induction by these species suggests that the induction might be attributed to the response to the chemical signals received from potential challenger strains.     

New Benzopyrrole Derivatives: Synthesis and Appraisal of Their Potential as Antimicrobial Agents

A series of twenty compounds ( 23 – 42 ) were synthesized and characterized by spectral studies in order to explore newer antimicrobial compounds. The majority of the synthesized compounds reported significant antimicrobial properties against various pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains with the help of tube dilution method. Significant activities (MIC ranging from 3.9 to 15.62 μg/ml) have been shown against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria with. In contrast, moderate to outstanding antibacterial activity was reported versus Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli and P. aeruginosa along with Gram-positive bacteria such as S. aureus and B. subtilis. While antifungal activity was moderate to excellent against two fungus strains (Candida tropicalis, Candida glabrata). Compounds 25 and 34 had the utmost activity versus Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria too. The antifungal activity of compound 35 was comparable to that of standard. In-silico Molecular docking evaluations were performed for antibacterial and antifungal activities against the target DNA gyrase A (PDB: 1AB4) and 14 alpha-sterol demethylase enzyme (PDB: 1EA1), respectively. The dock score for typicals compounds for antibacterial and antifungal activity were −4.733 and −9.4, respectively. The three-dimensional QSAR examination was carried out by multiple linear regression (SA-MLR) with good predictive power (r2=0.9105, q2=0.8011). Establishment of several interactions between the ligand 25 and 34 and the active site of residue of both receptors, enable the ligand 25 and 34 to be fit well in the pocket of the active site, as seen in Molecular dynamics simulations analysis. Thus, data suggest that these ligands could be further explored as potential precursors to develop antimicrobial drugs.     

Antimicrobial activity of broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica) cultivar Avenger against pathogenic bacteria,phytopathogenic filamentous fungi and yeast

Aims

The objective of this study was to show whether the edible part of broccoli has antibacterial and antifungal activity against micro‐organism of importance in human health and vegetable spoilage, and to test if this effect was partially due to antimicrobial peptides (AMPs).

Methods and Results

Crude extracts were obtained from florets and stems of broccoli cultivar Avenger and the inhibitory effect was demonstrated against pathogenic bacteria (Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus xylosus, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella flexneri, Shigella sonnei, Proteus vulgaris), phytopathogenic fungi (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Asperigillus niger) and yeasts (Candida albicans and Rhodotorula sp.). It was shown that samples treated with proteolytic enzymes had a reduction of approximately 60% in antibacterial activity against Staph. xylosus, suggesting that proteinaceous compounds might play a role in the inhibitory effect. Antimicrobial components in crude extracts were thermoresistant and the highest activity was observed under acidic conditions. It was shown that antifungal activity of broccoli's crude extracts might not be attributed to chitinases.

Conclusions

Organic broccoli cultivar Avenger has antimicrobial activity against pathogenic bacteria, yeast and phytophatogenic fungi. Data suggest that this effect is partially due to AMPs.

Significance and Impact of the Study

Broccoli's crude extracts have activity not only against pathogenic bacteria but also against phytophatogenic fungi of importance in agriculture. We suggest for first time that the inhibitory effect is probably due to AMPs.     

KKKKPLFGLFFGLF: A cationic peptide designed to exert antibacterial activity

With 14 residues organized as two domains linked by a single proline, the de novo peptide called K4 was designed, using Antimicrobial Peptide Database, to exert antibacterial activity. The N-terminal domain is composed of four lysines enhancing membrane interactions, and the C-terminal domain is putatively folded into a hydrophobic α-helix. Following the synthesis, the purification and the structural checking, antibacterial assays revealed a strong activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria including human pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and some marine bacteria of the genus Vibrio. Scanning electron microscopy of Escherichia coli confirmed that K4 lyses bacterial cells. The cytotoxicity was tested against rabbit erythrocytes and chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1). These tests revealed that K4 is non-toxic to mammalian cells for bacteriolytic concentrations. The peptide K4 could be a valuable candidate for future therapeutic applications.     

Bioactive stilbenes from a Bacillus sp. N strain associated with a novel rhabditid entomopathogenic nematode

Aims: The aim of the present study was to purify and characterize a natural antimicrobial compound from Bacillus sp. strain N associated with a novel rhabditid entomopathogenic nematode. Methods and Results: The cell‐free culture filtrate of a bacterium associated with a novel entomopathogenic nematode (EPN), Rhabditis (Oscheius) sp. exhibited strong antimicrobial activity. The ethyl acetate extract of the bacterial culture filtrate was purified by column chromatography, and two bioactive compounds were isolated and their chemical structures were established based on spectral analysis. The compounds were identified as 3,4′,5‐trihydroxystilbene (1) and 3,5‐dihydroxy‐4‐isopropylstilbene (2). The presence of 3,4′,5‐trihydroxystilbene (resveratrol) is reported for the first time in bacteria. Compound 1 showed antibacterial activity against all the four test bacteria, whereas compound 2 was effective against the Gram‐positive bacteria only. Compounds 1 and 2 were active against all the five fungi tested and are more effective than bavistin, the standard fungicide. The antifungal activity of the compounds against the plant pathogenic fungi, Rhizoctonia solani is reported for the first time. Conclusions: Cell‐free extract of the bacterium and isolated stilbenes demonstrated high antibacterial activity against bacteria and fungi especially against plant pathogenic fungi. We conclude that the bacterium‐associated EPN are promising sources of natural bioactive secondary metabolites. Significance and Impact of the Study: Stilbene compounds can be used for the control of fungi and bacteria.     

Composition and in vitro antimicrobial activity of Populus buds and poplar-type propolis

The antibacterial activity of propolis has been widely investigated. Since reports dealing with antimicrobial activity of the origin of propolis are not available, this study was carried out aiming to analyse the in vitro antimicrobial activity of the methanol extracts of poplar type propolis and Populus (Populus nigra, P. alba, P. tremuloides) buds as its sources against standard strains of a panel of microorganisms by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). The concentrations of the “poplar” phenolics were relatively high (4.5%) and some compounds typical for P. nigra such as pinobanksin and 4,3 acetyloxycaffeate were found in the propolis sample by GC-MS. The poplar type propolis and Populus bud exudates were found to inhibit most clinically important microorganisms in a wide spectrum including pathogenic yeasts but not Gram-negative bacteria.     

Bioactivity,Chemical Profiling,and 16S rRNA-Based Phylogeny of <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">Pseudoalteromonas</Emphasis> Strains Collected on a Global Research Cruise

One hundred one antibacterial Pseudoalteromonas strains that inhibited growth of a Vibrio anguillarum test strain were collected on a global research cruise (Galathea 3), and 51 of the strains repeatedly demonstrated antibacterial activity. Here, we profile secondary metabolites of these strains to determine if particular compounds serve as strain or species markers and to determine if the secondary metabolite profile of one strain represents the bioactivity of the entire species. 16S rRNA gene similarity divided the strains into two primary groups: One group (51 strains) consisted of bacteria which retained antibacterial activity, 48 of which were pigmented, and another group (50 strains) of bacteria which lost antibacterial activity upon sub-culturing, two of which were pigmented. The group that retained antibacterial activity consisted of six clusters in which strains were identified as Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea, Pseudoalteromonas aurantia, Pseudoalteromonas phenolica, Pseudoalteromonas ruthenica, Pseudoalteromonas rubra, and Pseudoalteromonas piscicida. HPLC-UV/VIS analyses identified key peaks, such as violacein in P. luteoviolacea. Some compounds, such as a novel bromoalterochromide, were detected in several species. HPLC-UV/VIS detected systematic intra-species differences for some groups, and testing several strains of a species was required to determine these differences. The majority of non-antibacterial, non-pigmented strains were identified as Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans, and HPLC-UV/VIS did not further differentiate this group. Pseudoalteromonas retaining antibacterial were more likely to originate from biotic or abiotic surfaces in contrast to planktonic strains. Hence, the pigmented, antibacterial Pseudoalteromonas have a niche specificity, and sampling from marine biofilm environments is a strategy for isolating novel marine bacteria that produce antibacterial compounds.     

Characterization of the active fragments of Spodoptera litura Lebocin-1

Insects can produce various antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) upon immune stimulation. One class of AMPs are characterized by their high proline content in certain fragments. They are generally called proline-rich antimicrobial peptides (PrAMPs). We previously reported the characterization of Spodoptera litura lebocin-1 (SlLeb-1), a PrAMP proprotein. Preliminary studies with synthetic polypeptides showed that among the four deductive active fragments, the C-terminal fragment SlLeb-1 (124-158) showed strong antibacterial activities. Here, we further characterized the antibacterial and antifungal activities of 124-158 and its four subfragments: 124-155, 124-149, 127-158, and 135-158. Only 124-158 and 127-158 could agglutinate bacteria, while 124-158 and four subfragments all could agglutinate Beauveria bassiana spores. Confocal microscopy showed that fluorescent peptides were located on the microbial surface. Fragment 135-158 lost activity completely against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, and partially against Bacillus subtilis. Only 124-149 showed low activity against Serratia marcescens. Negative staining, transmission, and scanning electron microscopy of 124-158 treated bacteria showed different morphologies. Flow cytometry analysis of S. aureus showed that 124-158 and four subfragments changed bacterial subpopulations and caused an increase of DNA content. These results indicate that active fragments of SlLeb-1 may have diverse antimicrobial effects against different microbes. This study may provide an insight into the development of novel antimicrobial agents.     

Design of bacteria-agglutinating peptides derived from parotid secretory protein, a member of the bactericidal/permeability increasing-like protein family

Parotid secretory protein (PSP) (SPLUNC2), a potential host-defense protein related to bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI), was used as a template to design antibacterial peptides. Based on the structure of BPI, new PSP peptides were designed and tested for antibacterial activity. The peptides did not exhibit significant bactericidal activity or inhibit growth but the peptide GL-13 induced bacterial matting, suggesting passive agglutination of bacteria. GL-13 was shown to agglutinate the Gram negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actinomycetemcomitans, Gram positive Streptococcus gordonii and uncoated sheep erythrocytes. Bacterial agglutination was time and dose-dependent and involved hydrophobic interactions. Variant forms of GL-13 revealed that agglutination also depended on the number of amine groups on the peptide. GL-13 inhibited the adhesion of bacteria to plastic surfaces and the peptide prevented the spread of P. aeruginosa infection in a lettuce leaf model, suggesting that GL-13 is active in vivo. Moreover, GL-13-induced agglutination enhanced the phagocytosis of P. aeruginosa by RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. These results suggest that GL-13 represents a class of antimicrobial peptides, which do not directly kill bacteria but instead reduce bacterial adhesion and promote agglutination, leading to increased clearance by host phagocytic cells. Such peptides may cause less bacterial resistance than traditional antibiotic peptides.     

Comparative activity against pathogenic bacteria of the root,stem, and leaf of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Raphanus sativus</Emphasis> grown in India

Aqueous, methanol, ethyl acetate, and chloroform extracts of the root, stem, and leaf of Raphanus sativus were studied for antibacterial activity against food-borne and resistant pathogens. All extracts except the aqueous extracts had significant broad-spectrum inhibitory activity. The ethyl acetate extract of the root had the potent antibacterial activity, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.016–0.064 mg/ml and a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of 0.016–0.512 mg/ml against health-damaging bacteria. This was followed by the ethyl acetate extracts of the leaf and stem with MICs of 0.064–0.256 and 0.128–0.256 mg/ml, respectively and MBCs of 0.128–2.05 and 0.256–2.05 mg/ml, respectively. The ethyl acetate extracts of the different parts of R. sativus retained their antibacterial activity after heat treatment at 100°C for 30 min, and their antibacterial activity was enhanced when pH was maintained in the acidic range. Hence this study, for the first time, demonstrated that the root, stem, and leaf of R. sativus had significant bactericidal effects against human pathogenic bacteria, justifying their traditional use as anti-infective agents in herbal medicines.     

The effects of a vegetable‐derived probiotic lactic acid bacterium on the immune response

The objective of this study was to investigate the probiotic properties of the fermented vegetable derived lactic acid bacterium, L. plantarum. L. plantarum 10hk2 showed antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria and immunomodulating effects on murine macrophage cell lines. RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with viable cells of this probiotic strain increased the amounts of pro‐inflammatory mediators such as IL‐1β, IL‐6 and TNF‐α, as well as the anti‐inflammatory mediator, IL‐10. ICR mice fed with viable cells of L. plantarum 10hk2 had reduced numbers of enteric Salmonella and Shigella species in comparison to controls from 2 weeks after supplementation, and this effect was observed for up to 4 weeks. The findings of this study suggest that this specific lactic acid bacterial strain, which is derived from vegetable fermentation, holds great promise for use in probiotics and as a food additive since it can reduce the number of some pathogenic bacteria through production of lactic acids.     

Antibacterial effect of extracts of Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) larvae against Gram‐negative bacteria

Larvae of the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens are well‐known fly larvae that inhabit many countries around the world. Antimicrobial agents derived from the larvae may be among the substances that are produced in the body for their survival. This study was carried out to identify the antimicrobial effects of H. illucens larvae that commonly inhabit animal waste and food waste. To evaluate the pharmacological effects of H. illucens larvae extracts, the larvae were extracted by various organic solvents, and their antibacterial effects were determined by antimicrobial methods, such as agar disk diffusion and turbidometric assays. The methanol extracts (ME) indicated antibacterial effects against the proliferation of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Shigella sonnei. However, antibacterial effects were not induced in Gram‐positive bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, Streptococcus mutans and Sarcina lutea. The bacterial growth treated with ME was strongly inhibited from 20 mg/mL in a dose‐dependent manner compared with other extracts, and antibacterial activity gradually decreased after 24 h. Moreover, the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of ME against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Shigella sonnei for 12 h were measured as 44.74 mg/mL, 43.98 mg/mL and 43.96 mg/mL, respectively. These results demonstrate that ME of H. illucens larvae not only has antibacterial activity which strongly inhibits the growth and proliferation of the bacteria but also unique properties which effectively block the viability of the bacteria.

In vitro antibacterial activity and physicochemical properties of a crude methanol extract of the larvae of the blow fly Lucilia cuprina

The emergence of multidrug‐resistant bacterial strains has prompted the reintroduction of maggot therapy in the treatment of chronic, infected wounds. Many previous studies have demonstrated the potent antibacterial activity of larval excretions/secretions of the blowfly Lucilia sericata (Meigen) (Diptera:Calliphoridae) against bacteria. However, the antibacterial activity of its sibling species, Lucilia cuprina (Wiedemann) (Diptera:Calliphoridae) against a wide range of pathogenic bacteria has never been determined. The aim of this study was to develop a new procedure to produce whole body extract of larvae of L. cuprina via methanol extraction as well as to demonstrate the in vitro antibacterial activity of this extract against seven selected wound pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin‐resistant S. aureus, S. epidermidis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli). The turbidimetric assay demonstrated that L. cuprina larval extract was significantly potent against all bacteria tested (P < 0.001). Additionally, colony‐forming unit (CFU), agar well diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration assays have confirmed the apparent potency of larval extract against P. aeruginosa. The reconstituted larval extract was highly robust and thermally stable. These observations substantiated the feasibility of the methanol extraction method in the production of larval extract.
