Curcumin is a plant‐derived polyphenolic active substance with broad‐spectrum antibacterial properties. Curcumin blocks bacterial growth owing to its structural characteristics and the generation of antioxidation products. Curcumin can inhibit bacterial virulence factors, inhibit bacterial biofilm formation and prevent bacterial adhesion to host receptors through the bacterial quorum sensing regulation system. As a photosensitizer, curcumin acts under blue light irradiation to induce phototoxicity and inhibit bacterial growth. Moreover, it can exert a synergistic antibacterial effect with other antibacterial substances. In this review, we summarize the research progress on the antibacterial mechanism of curcumin based on five targeting structures and two modes of action. Our discussion provides a theoretical basis and technical foundation for the development and application of natural antibacterial agents. 相似文献

The anti-cancer activity of dimers joined with ether, ester or carbon–carbon bonds by photodynamic therapy (PDT) was compared by using DBA/2 mice transplanted with SMT/F tumors. Dimers with ether and carbon–carbon linkages were found to be more effective than those linked with ester bonds. Variation of the substituents at peripheral positions made a significant difference in in vivo efficacy. Among the ether and carbon–carbon linked dimers, the divinyl analogs were found to be most effective. The preliminary in vivo results also suggest that the position(s) of the hydrophilic substituents in the molecules make a remarkable difference in photosensitizing activity. An unsymmetrical dimer with an amide linkage, obtained from 2-(1-hexyloxyethyl)-2-devinyl pyropheophorbide-a (HPPH) was found to be less effective than HPPH. 相似文献

The toxicity of the fungal phytotoxin dothistromin (l) to microorganisms, its lysis of human red blood corpuscles and beetroot tissue, and its unexpectedly selective inhibition of radicle elongation for Trigonella foenum-graecum were strongly light-dependent. Dothistromin was also toxic to Artemia salina but without requiring light activation. It was not active as a wilt or necrosis toxin, possible because of its ready adsorption onto external plant tissue. 相似文献

A quantitative in vitro method for phototoxic evaluation of chemicals has been developed and validated. The assay uses Saccharomyces cerevisiae, seeded in an agar overlay on top of a plate count agar base. 8-Methoxy psoralen is used as a reference standard against which materials are measured. Activity is quantified by cytotoxicity measured as zones of inhibition. Several known phototoxins (heliotropine, lyral, phantolid, and bergamot oil) and photoallergens (6-methyl coumarin and musk ambrette) are used to validate the assay. An excellent correlation is observed between in vivo studies employing Hartley albino guinea pigs and the in vitro assay for several fragrance raw materials and other chemicals. The in vitro assay exhibits a greater sensitivity from 2–500 fold. For three fragrance oils, the in vitro assay detects low levels of photobiological activity while the in vivo assay is negative. Although the in vitro assay does not discriminate between phototoxins and photoallergens, it can be used for screening of raw materials so that reduction in animal usage can be achieved while maintaining the protection of the consumer.Abbreviations C

Twenty-four polyacetylenes isolated from species in the Asteraceae were screened for their near-UV-mediated larvicidal properties to the mosquito, Aedes aegypti. Dosage resonse lines for three of the most active compounds were prepared. One of these, σ-terthienyl from Tagetes was more toxic than DDT when near-UV radiation was provided. A scaled up trial with this compound in a simulated field situation demonstrated its potential as a larvicide. The effects of the radiation dose on larval survival were studied and the action spectra for the phototoxic effects of three compounds on larvae were obtained with narrowband interference filters. Because of the close agreement between the action and absorption spectra, it appears most probable that the polyacetylene is the primary absorbing compound. The potential of polyacetylenes as larvicides and their role in plant herbivore relations are discussed. 相似文献
