Abstract: | Nine compounds isolated from the leaf and stem of Vitis amurensis Rupr. (Vitaceae) were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against two oral pathogens, Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguis, which are associated with caries and periodontal disease, respectively. The results of several antimicrobial tests, including MIC, MBC, and TBAI, showed that three compounds inhibited the growth of the test bacteria at concentrations ranging from 12.5 to 50 μg/mL. Among these compounds, compound 5, trans-ε-viniferin, displayed the strongest activity against S. mutans and S. sanguis with MIC values of 25 and 12.5 μg/mL, respectively. This is the first report on the antimicrobial activity of stilbenes and oligostilbenes isolated from the leaf and stem of V. amurensis. Thus, this result suggests that natural antimicrobial compounds derived from V. amurensis may benefit oral health as plaque-control agents for the prevention of dental caries and periodontal disease. |
