Int Microbiol 2024:10.1007/s10123-024-00517-7. [PMID: 38581482 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-024-00517-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
Salt affected cotton rhizospheric soil was explored for multi-stress resistance microbes to obtain 46 rhizobacteria. Of these, seven strains strongly inhibited the growth of phytopathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani by virtue of antifungal compound 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) production. These seven strains demonstrated an array of plant growth-promoting activities as follows: (i) production of indole-3-acetic acid, ammonia, siderophore; (ii) solubilisation of phosphate, while two isolates showed Zn solubilisation. The phenetic and 16S ribotyping revealed affiliation of all the isolates to Pseudomonas guariconensis and presence of phlD gene marker for DAPG production. Among the seven isolates, strain VDA8 showed the highest DAPG production (0.16 μg ml-1) in liquid synthetic medium under aerobic conditions at 28 °C. Furthermore, sucrose, peptone, sodium hydrogen phosphate, ZnSO4, pH 8.0, and NaCl (1%) were observed as the best carbon, nitrogen, phosphate, trace element, pH, and salt concentration, respectively for maximum production of DAPG by strain VDA8 (3.62 ± 0.04 μg ml-1). The strain VDA8 was further assessed for wheat (Triticum aestivum) growth promotion by seed biopriming under laboratory (plate assay) and field condition in alkaline saline soil with pH 8.5. The field scale (324 m2) trials demonstrated 28.6% enhanced grain production compared to control demonstrating the newly isolated Pseudomonas sp. as multi-potent bioinoculant.

Abstract
Breast cancer, one of the most significant tumors among all cancer cells, still has deficiencies for effective treatment. Moreover, substitute treatments employing natural products as bioactive metabolites has been seriously considered. The source of bioactive metabolites are not only the most numerous but also represent the richest source. A unique source is from the oceans or marine species which demonstrated intriguing chemical and biological diversity which represents an astonishing reserve for discovering novel anticancer drugs. Notably, marine sponges produce the largest amount of diverse bioactive peptides, alkaloids, terpenoids, polyketides along with many secondary metabolites whose potential is mostly therapeutic. In this review, our main focus is on the marine derived secondary metabolites which demonstrated cytotoxic effects towards numerous breast cancer cells and have been isolated from the marine sources such as marine sponges, cyanobacteria, fungi, algae, tunicates, actinomycetes, ascidians, and other sources of marine organisms.

Characterization and Assessment of 2, 4-Diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG)-Producing Pseudomonas fluorescens VSMKU3054 for the Management of Tomato Bacterial Wilt Caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10081508. [PMID: 35893565 PMCID: PMC9330548 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10081508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Microbial bio-products are becoming an appealing and viable alternative to chemical pesticides for effective management of crop diseases. These bio-products are known to have potential to minimize agrochemical applications without losing crop yield and also restore soil fertility and productivity. In this study, the inhibitory efficacy of 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens VSMKU3054 against Ralstonia solanacearum was assessed. Biochemical and functional characterization study revealed that P. fluorescens produced hydrogen cyanide (HCN), siderophore, indole acetic acid (IAA) and hydrolytic enzymes such as amylase, protease, cellulase and chitinase, and had the ability to solubilize phosphate. The presence of the key antimicrobial encoding gene in the biosynthesis of 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) was identified by PCR. The maximum growth and antimicrobial activity of P. fluorescens was observed in king’s B medium at pH 7, 37 °C and 36 h of growth. Glucose and tryptone were found to be the most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. DAPG was separated by silica column chromatography and identified by various methods such as UV-Vis, FT-IR, GC-MS and NMR spectroscopy. When R. solanacearum cells were exposed to DAPG at 90 µg/mL, the cell viability was decreased, reactive oxygen species (ROS) were increased and chromosomal DNA was damaged. Application of P. fluorescens and DAPG significantly reduced the bacterial wilt incidence. In addition, P. fluorescens was also found effective in promoting the growth of tomato seedlings. It is concluded that the indigenous isolate P. fluorescens VSMKU3054 could be used as a suitable biocontrol agent against bacterial wilt disease of tomato.

Abstract
The active role of bacteria in oncogenesis has long been a topic of debate. Although, it was speculated to be a transmissible cause of cancer as early as the 16th-century, yet the idea about the direct involvement of bacteria in cancer development has only been explored in recent decades. More recently, several studies have uncovered the mechanisms behind the carcinogenic potential of bacteria which are inflammation, immune evasion, pro-carcinogenic metabolite production, DNA damage and genomic instability. On the other side, the recent development on the understanding of tumor microenvironment and technological advancements has turned this enemy into an ally. Studies using bacteria for cancer treatment and detection have shown noticeable effects. Therapeutic abilities of bioengineered live bacteria such as high specificity, selective cytotoxicity to cancer cells, responsiveness to external signals and control after ingestion have helped to overcome the challenges faced by conventional cancer therapies and highlighted the bacterial based therapy as an ideal approach for cancer treatment. In this review, we have made an effort to compile substantial evidence to support the multidimensional role of bacteria in cancer. We have discussed the multifaceted role of bacteria in cancer by highlighting the wide impact of bacteria on different cancer types, their mechanisms of actions in inducing carcinogenicity, followed by the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of bacteria in cancers. Moreover, we have also highlighted the existing gaps in the knowledge of the association between bacteria and cancer as well as the limitation and advantage of bacteria-based therapies in cancer. A better understanding of these multidimensional roles of bacteria in cancer can open up the new doorways to develop early detection strategies, prevent cancer, and develop therapeutic tactics to cure this devastating disease.

Abstract
An array of 4H-chromene derivatives have been reported for anticancer properties but their selectivity and mode of anticancer activity are unexplored. In this context, we have investigated a biologically active synthetically designed 4H-Chromene carbonitrile derivative, 2-amino-6-nitro-4-(4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-5-yl)-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile (ANC) that is strongly and selectively inhibited Bcl-2 over expressing human leukemic (HL-60 and K562) cells for its interaction and elucidated the mode of action. The interaction of ANC was investigated against the antiapoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2, Bax, Bcl-xL and Bcl-w that were overexpressed in leukemic cells using in silico and fluorescent spectroscopic studies. Fluorescent spectroscopic based interaction studies showed that the derivative had strong interaction with Bcl-xL followed by Bcl-2/Bax and least interaction with Bcl-w. Based on the results, the ANC had strong interactions with antiapoptotic Bcl-2 and Bax proteins than the Bcl-xL and Bcl-w proteins. The in vitro biological validation of ANC treated leukemic cells showed downregulation of Bcl-xL than Bcl-2 but least effect on Bcl-w proteins. Furthermore, the ANC had possible four isomers as RR, RS, SR and SS isomers. Among them, RS isomer of ANC had shown more active that correlated with biological interactions and gene expression studies of ACN with oncoproteins. These results confirmed the induction of apoptosis by RS-ACN isomer through inhibition of antiapoptotic machineries of leukemic cells confirming the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 inhibitory activities.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Molecular docking in the pharmaceutical industry is a powerful in silico approach for discovering novel therapies for unmet medical needs predicting drug–target interactions. It not only provides binding affinity between drugs and targets at the atomic level, but also elucidates the fundamental pharmacological properties of specific drugs. The purpose of this review was to illustrate newer and emergent uses of docking when combined with in vitro techniques for drug discovery in metastatic breast cancer. We grouped the selected articles into five main categories; namely, systematic repositioning of drugs, natural drugs, new synthesized molecules, combinations of drugs, and drug latentiation. We focused on new promising drugs that have a good affinity with their targets, thus inducing a favorable biological response. This review suggests that the integration of molecular docking and in vitro studies can accelerate cancer drug discovery showing a good consistency of the results between the two approaches.

Abstract
Efforts toward the development of a straightforward greener Gram-scale synthesis of the antibiotic compound 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) have been developed. This beneficial procedure was accomplished through the Friedel–Crafts acylation of phloroglucinol over inexpensive heterogeneous silica sulphuric acid (SSA) catalyst via ultrasound-assisted (US) synthesis under solvent-free condition. The influences of various parameters such as temperature, catalyst loading, and reaction time on the reaction performance were analysed using a multivariate statistical modelling response surface methodology (RSM). A high yield of DAPG (95%) was achieved at 60 °C after 15–20 min reaction with the presence of 10% (w/w) SSA as the catalyst. Column chromatography-free and a Gram scale-up reaction also exhibited the practical applicability of this newly developed protocol. The SSA catalyst was recovered and recycled up to 10 consecutive runs with no appreciable loss of activity. A plausible mechanism for the Friedel–Crafts acylation of phloroglucinol is proposed. Moreover, an environmental assessment has been carried out over this present method and compared with several established literature using the EATOS software and the Andraos algorithm to assess the consumption of the substrates, solvents, catalysts, and the production of coupled products or by-products. In addition, their energy consumptions were also determined. The data collected showed that the present method is the most promising one, characterised by the highest environmental impact profile against all the other reported methods. The physicochemical properties of the synthesised DAPG were assessed and exhibited reasonable oral bioavailability drug property as determined by Lipinski's rules. A greatly improved procedure for the synthesis of antibiotic 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol has been developed via a newly advanced synthetic method.![]()

Abstract
Atranorin (ATR), lichenized secondary metabolite and depside molecule with several biological potentials such as antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, wound healing and photoprotective activities. Cytotoxic reports of ATR are documented in several cancer cells and in vivo models but its molecular interaction studies are poorly understood. Therefore, in this present investigation, we have used the in silico studies with biological validation of the molecular targets for the anti-breast cancer mechanism of ATR. The molecular docking studies with the breast cancer oncoproteins such as Bcl-2, Bax, Akt, Bcl-w and Bcl-xL revealed the highest interaction was observed with the Akt followed by Bax, Bcl-xL and Bcl-2 & least with the Bcl-w proteins. The cytotoxicity studies showed ATR selectively inhibited MDA MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer cells in differential and dose-dependent manner with the IC50 concentration of 5.36 ± 0.85 μM and 7.55 ± 1.2 μM respectively. Further mechanistic investigations revealed that ATR significantly inhibited ROS production and significantly down-regulated the anti apoptotic Akt than Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Bcl-w proteins with a significant increase in the Bax level and caspases-3 activity in the breast cancer cells when comparison with Akt inhibitor, ipatasertib. In vitro biological activities well correlated with the molecular interaction data suggesting that atranorin had higher interaction with Akt than Bax and Bcl-2 but weak interaction with Bcl-w and Bcl-xL. In this present study, the first time we report the interactions of atranorin with molecular targets for anti-breast cancer potential. Hence, ATR represents the nature-inspired molecule for pharmacophore moiety for design in targeted therapy.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The formation of C-C bonds by using CoA independent acyltransferases may have significant impact for novel methods for biotechnology. We report the identification of Pseudomonas strains with CoA-independent acyltransferase activity as well as the heterologous expression of the enzyme in E. coli. The cloning strategies and selected expression studies are discussed. The recombinant acyltransferases were characterized with regard to thermal and storage stability, pH,- and co-solvent tolerance. Moreover, the impact of bivalent metals, inhibitors, and other additives was tested. Careful selection of expression and working conditions led to obtain recombinant acyltransferase form Pseudomonas protegens with up to 11 U mL-1 activity.

Abstract
Drug molecule interaction with human serum albumin (HSA) affects the distribution and elimination of the drug. The compound, 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) has been known for its antimicrobial, antiviral, antihelminthic and anticancer properties. However, its interaction with HSA is not yet reported. In this study, the interaction between HSA and DAPG was investigated through steady-state fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence (TRF), circular dichroism (CD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation (MDS). Fluorescence spectroscopy results showed the strong quenching of intrinsic fluorescence of HSA due to interaction with DAPG, through dynamic quenching mechanism. The compound bound to HSA with reversible and moderate affinity which explained its easy diffusion from circulatory system to target tissue. The thermodynamic parameters from fluorescence spectroscopic data clearly revealed the contribution of hydrophobic forces but, the role of hydrogen bonds was not negligible according to the ITC studies. The interaction was exothermic and spontaneous in nature. Binding with DAPG reduced the helical content of protein suggesting the unfolding of HSA. Site marker fluorescence experiments revealed the change in binding constant of DAPG in the presence of site I (warfarin) but not site II marker (ibuprofen) which confirmed that the DAPG bound to site I. ITC experiments also supported this as site I marker could not bind to HSA-DAPG complex while site II marker was accommodated in the complex. In silico studies further showed the lowest binding affinity and more stability of DAPG in site I than in site II. Thus the data presented in this study confirms the binding of DAPG to the site I of HSA which may help in further understanding of pharmacokinetic properties of DAPG.
