Bioactive composition, antimicrobial activities and the influence of Agrocybe aegerita (Brig.) Sing on certain quorum-sensing-regulated functions and biofilm formation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

چکیده
Agrocybe aegerita (Brig.) Sing is a basidiomycete, white rot fungus. Antimicrobial activities and the antiqourum effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosa of an A. aegerita methanolic extract were investigated. The extract showed very good antimicrobial activity against all the tested microorganisms in a dose dependent manner. Effects of the Sub-MIC, MIC and 2MIC of the A. aegerita methanolic extract regulated the virulence factors in the quorum sensing (QS) test, as well as biofilm formation on P. aeruginosa. Sub-inhibitory and inhibitory concentrations of the extract demonstrated the reduction of virulence factors such as pyocyanin production, twitching and swimming motility. The biofilm forming capability of P. aeruginosa PAO1 was also reduced in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, the chemical composition of the methanolic extract was determined considering its phenolic composition. The methanolic extract of A. aegerita can be a very good source of bioactive substances. This research is of great importance due to the prevalence of drug-resistant microorganisms.

Objective(s): Honey’s ability to kill microorganisms and even eradication of chronic infections with drug-resistant pathogens has been documented by numerous studies. The present study is focused on the action of honey in its sub-inhibitory levels to impact on the pathogens coordinated behaviors rather than killing them. Materials and Methods:</strong...
متن کاملNutritional value, chemical composition, antioxidant activity and enrichment of cream cheese with chestnut mushroom Agrocybe aegerita (Brig.) Sing.
A very well-known and appreciated mushroom, Agrocybe aegerita (Brig.) Sing, was the subject of chemical profiling, antioxidant assays and sensory evaluation test in cream cheese. Methanolic extract obtained from a wild sample of A. aegerita fruiting body was fully chemically identified. Sample was found to be rich in carbohydrates (84.51 g/100 g dw), ash and proteins (6.69 g/100 g dw and 6.68 g...
متن کاملMycofabricated biosilver nanoparticles interrupt Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing systems
Quorum sensing (QS) is a chemical communication process that Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses to regulate virulence and biofilm formation. Disabling of QS is an emerging approach for combating its pathogenicity. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been widely applied as antimicrobial agents against human pathogenic bacteria and fungi, but not for the attenuation of bacterial QS. Here we mycofabricated...

AIM The fight against infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistances needs the exploration of new active compounds with new proprieties like disrupting quorum sensing (QS) mechanisms, which is a cell-to-cell communication that regulates bacterial virulence factors. In this work, leaves and root barks extracts of a Congolese medicinal plant, Cordia gilletii, were investigated for their effect...
