Polyphenolic extract from Rosa rugosa tea inhibits bacterial quorum sensing and biofilm formation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quorum sensing (QS) is an intercellular signaling and gene regulatory mechanism, which is implicated in bacterial pathogenicity and food spoilage. Therefore, blocking bacterial QS system may prevent QScontrolled phenotypes responsible for food spoilage. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the anti-biofilm and quorum sensing inhibitory potentials of Rosa rugosa tea polyphenol (RTP) extract, which is rich in polyphenols (87.52%) and flavonoids (61.03%). The RTP specifically inhibited QS-controlled violacein production in Chromobacterium violaceum 026 with 87.56% reduction without significantly affecting its growth. Moreover, RTP exhibited inhibition in swarming motility (84.90% and 78.03%) and biofilm formation (67.02% and 72.90%) of Escherichia coli K-12 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 in a concentration-dependent manner, respectively. These findings strongly suggest that RTP potentially could be developed as a new QS inhibitor and/or anti-biofilm agent to enhance the shelf life and increase food safety. 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

INHIBITORY EFFECT OF STEVIA AND ROSA EXTRACTS AGAINST BACTERIAL QUORUM SENSING
Background & Aims: Quorum Sensing is a mechanism by which orchestrate the expression of many genes in bacteria. Therefore, any interference with the system will inhibit bacterial infections. The principal purpose of the research was to evaluate the potential of anti-quorum sensing of Rosa damascena and Stevia rebaudiana against Staphylococcus aureus. Materials & Methods: Ten isolates of Staphy...

Multidrug-resistance bacteria commonly use cell-to-cell communication that leads to biofilm formation as one of the mechanisms for developing resistance. Quorum sensing inhibition (QSI) is an effective approach for the prevention of biofilm formation. A Gram-negative bacterium, Delftia tsuruhatensis SJ01, was isolated from the rhizosphere of a species of sedge (Cyperus laevigatus) grown along t...

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...

In the present study, variation among different bacterial strains was observed in the plaques of tobacco chewers (TC) as compared to those from normal persons (non tobacco chewers) (NTC). Bacterial strain J1 (dominant in the plaques of NTC) did not initiate the process of adhesion (biofilm formation) until it appeared to have reached a required population density necessary for the production of...

Protection of plants against bacterial diseases still mainly relies on the use of chemical pesticides, which in Europe correspond essentially to copper-based compounds. However, recently plant diseases control is oriented towards a rational use of molecules and extracts, generally with natural origin, with lower intrinsic toxicity and a reduced negative environmental impact. In this work, polyp...
