Zou Z, Purnawan MA, Wang Y, Ismail BB, Zhang X, Yang Z, Guo M. A novel antimicrobial peptide WBp-1 from wheat bran: Purification, characterization and antibacterial potential against Listeria monocytogenes. Food Chem 2024; 463:141261. [PMID: 39321596 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.141261] [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: 04/24/2024] [Revised: 09/03/2024] [Accepted: 09/10/2024] [Indexed: 09/27/2024]
Abstract
This study introduces a novel antimicrobial peptide (AMP), WBp-1, isolated from wheat bran and purified via reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The amino acid sequence, determined as IITGASSGIGKAIAKHFI by LC-MS/MS, was composed predominantly of alkaline and hydrophobic residues. WBp-1 was predicted to be a stable, hydrophobic, cationic peptide with an α-helical structure. Moreover, it displayed significant antibacterial efficacy against Listeria monocytogenes, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 150 μg/mL. Further mechanistic studies suggest that WBp-1 exerts its bactericidal activity by disrupting cell membrane integrity, impeding peptidoglycan synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding protein 4 via hydrogen bonding, increasing cell permeability, altering membrane potential and fluidity, and altering surface hydrophobicity. Interestingly, WBp-1 showed minimal hemolytic activity and cytotoxicity against LO2 cells, even at 16× MIC. These findings highlight the strong potential of WBp-1 as a novel antibacterial agent and food preservative against Listeria monocytogenes.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has always posed a severe threat to public health. Gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) exhibit exceptional biocompatibility and hold immense potential in biomedical applications. However, their antibacterial effectiveness is currently unsatisfactory. Herein, a chiral antibacterial agent with high stability was prepared by the modification of Au NPs with d-cysteine with the assistance of polyethylene glycol (PEG). The as-synthesized d-cysteine/PEG-Au NPs (D/P-Au NPs) exhibited a stronger (99.5-99.9%) and more stable (at least 14 days) antibacterial performance against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes) and Gram-positive (Salmonella enteritidis and Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria, compared with other groups. The analysis of the antibacterial mechanism revealed that the D/P-Au NPs mainly affected the assembly of ribosomes, the biosynthesis of amino acids and proteins, as well as the DNA replication and mismatch repair, ultimately leading to bacterial death, which is significantly different from the mechanism of reactive oxygen species-activated metallic antibacterial NPs. In particular, the D/P-Au NPs were shown to effectively accelerate the healing of S. aureus-infected wounds in mice to a rate comparable to or slightly higher than that of vancomycin. This work provides a novel approach to effectively design chiral antibacterial agents for bacterial infection treatment.

Abstract
Zero-valent iron (ZVI) has been extensively studied for its capacity to remove various contaminants in the environments. However, whether ZVI affects bacterial resistance to antibiotics has not been fully explored. Herein, it was unexpected that, compared with microscale ZVI (mZVI), nanoscale ZVI (nZVI) facilitated the susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) to chloramphenicol (CAP), with a decrease in the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of about 60 %, demonstrating a nanosize-specific effect. nZVI enhanced CAP accumulation in P. aeruginosa via inhibitory effect on efflux pumps activated by MexT, thus conferring the susceptibility of P. aeruginosa to CAP. Circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed that the structure of MexT was changed during the evolution. More importantly, molecular dynamic simulations uncovered that, once the structure of MexT changed, it would be more likely to interact with nZVI, resulting in more serious changes in its secondary structure, which was consistent with the increasing susceptibility of P. aeruginosa to CAP. Collectively, this study elucidated the size-specific effect and the underlying mechanism of ZVI on the bacterial evolution of susceptibility toward antibiotics, highlighting the potentials of nZVI-based technologies on the prevention of bacterial resistance to antibiotics, one of the most important issue for globally public health.

Abstract
The widespread bacterial contamination caused by foodborne pathogens has continuously driven the development of advanced and potent food antimicrobial agents. In this study, two novel antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) named KTA and KTR were obtained by modifying a natural AMP, Leg2, from chickpea storage protein legumin hydrolysates. They were further predicted to be stable hydrophobic cationic AMPs of α-helical structure with no hemolytic toxicity by several online servers. Moreover, the AMPs exerted superior antibacterial activity against two representative Staphylococcus aureus strains thanks to the increased hydrophobicity and positive charge, with minimum inhibition concentration value (4.74-7.41 μM) significantly lower than that of Leg2 (>1158.70 μM). Further, this study sought to elucidate the specific antimicrobial mechanism against Gram-positive bacteria. It was found that the electrostatic interactions of the AMPs with peptidoglycan were vital for peptide activity in combating Gram-positive bacteria. Subsequently, the cell membrane of S. aureus cells was irreversibly disrupted by increasing permeability and impairing membrane components, which led to the massive release of intracellular substances and eventual cell death. Overall, this work demonstrated that KTA and KTR were active against Gram-positive bacteria via peptidoglycan targeting and membrane-disruptive mechanisms and paved the way for expanding their application potential to alleviate food contamination.

Abstract
The control of microbial infection transmission often relies on the utilization of synthetic and metal-based antimicrobial agents. However, their non-biodegradability and inadequate disposal practices lead to significant environmental contamination. To address this concern, the quest for natural alternatives has gained paramount importance. Lignin, a widely available renewable aromatic compound, emerges as a promising candidate owing to its inherent phenolic moiety, which lends itself well to acting as a natural antimicrobial agent either independently or in combination with other agents. This article provides a comprehensive account of the structure and primary classes of lignin. Additionally, it elucidates the antimicrobial mechanism of lignin, the factors influencing its efficacy, and the methods employed for its detection. Moreover, it describes the progress made in developing the antimicrobial capacity of lignin in different areas. In conclusion, this paper not only outlines the current state of research on the antimicrobial function of lignin, but also identifies challenges and future possibilities for enhancing its antimicrobial properties. This work holds great significance in the ongoing endeavor to contribute to high-impact research on natural alternatives for controlling infections and fostering environmentally conscious practices.

Abstract
Wall teichoic acid (WTA) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) are structural components of Gram-positive bacteria's peptidoglycan and cell membrane, which are mostly anionic glycopolymers. WTA confers numerous physiological, virulence, and pathogenic features to bacterial pathogens. It controls cell shape, cell division, and the localisation of autolytic enzymes and ion homeostasis. In the context of virulence and pathogenicity, it aids bacterial cell attachment and colonisation and protects against the host defence system and antibiotics. Having such a broad function in pathogenic bacteria's lifecycle, WTA/LTA become one of the potential targets for antibacterial agents to reduce bacterial infection in the host. The number of reports for targeting the WTA/LTA pathway has risen, mostly by focusing on three distinct targets: antivirulence targets, β-lactam potentiator targets, and essential targets. The current review looked at the role of WTA/LTA in biofilm development and virulence in a range of Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria. Furthermore, alternate strategies, such as the application of natural and synthetic compounds that target the WTA/LTA pathway, have been thoroughly discussed. Moreover, the application of nanomaterials and a combination of drugs have also been discussed as a viable method for targeting the WTA/LTA in numerous Gram-positive bacteria. In addition, a future perspective for controlling bacterial infection by targeting the WTA/LTA is proposed.

Abstract
Sensitive and accurate detection of multiplex foodborne pathogens is crucial for food safety. In this work, a dual-mode and dual-target biosensor regulated by a Tesla valve was established for simultaneously determining Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli) and Salmonella typhimurium (S. T). Two zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) signal probes decorated with electroactive materials (ferrocene or methylene blue), DNAzyme, and different phages were synthesized to specifically recognize the targets and generate fluorescent/electrochemical dual-mode signals. In the presence of bacteria, they were captured and enriched on two individual working electrodes through the modified 4-mercaptophenylboric acid. The encoded signal probes added on different working electrodes could be conjugated with the corresponding target bacteria depending on the specificity of phages. Under the acidic condition, the DNAzyme could catalyze click chemistry for fluorescent signals. Simultaneously, the released ferrocene and methylene blue from ZIF-8 could generate electrochemical signals at different potentials. Benefiting from the flow regulation feature of the Tesla valve, the triggered fluorescent and electrochemical signals in the two individual electrodes would not influence each other, achieving simultaneous dual-mode and dual-target determination of foodborne pathogens. It depicted good linearity ranged 10-107 CFU mL-1. And the corresponding detection of limits were 5 CFU mL-1 and 8 CFU mL-1 for two bacteria, respectively. A low false positive was realized through the dual-mode strategy. The proposed biosensor can not only on-site, specifically, and sensitively determine E. coli and S. T, but also provide the wide prospect in rapid screening of other foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
The biomolecular responses of bacteria to 2D nanosheets that result from nano-bio interfacial interactions remain to be thoroughly examined. Herein, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) multivariate and 2D correlation analyses were performed to assess the composition and conformational changes in bacterial biomacromolecules (lipids, polysaccharides, and carbohydrates) upon exposure to Ti3C2Tx nanosheets. General toxicity assays, 3D excitation-emission matrix fluorescence analyses, extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory interaction calculations, and isothermal titration calorimetry were also performed. Our results demonstrate that Ti3C2Tx nanosheets considerably impact Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis), causing oxidative damage and inactivation by preferentially interacting with and disrupting the cell walls. The bilayer membrane structure of Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli) endows them with increased resistance to Ti3C2Tx nanosheets. The unmodified nanosheets had a higher affinity to bacterial protein components with lower toxicity due to their susceptibility to oxidation. Surface modification with KOH or hydrazine (HMH), particularly HMH, induced stronger dispersion, antioxidation, and affinity to bacterial phospholipids, which resulted in severe cell membrane lipid peroxidation and bacterial inactivation. These findings provide valuable insight into nano-bio interfacial interactions, which can facilitate the development of antimicrobial and antifouling surfaces and contribute to the evaluation of the environmental risks of nanomaterials.

Abstract
The presence and attachment of chlorine-resistant bacteria on the surface of water distribution network will deteriorate water quality and threaten human health. Chlorination is critical in drinking water treatment to ensure the biosafety of drinking water. However, how disinfectants affect the structures of dominant flora during biofilm development and whether the changes are consistent with the free flora remain unclear. Therefore, we investigated changes in species diversity and relative abundance of different bacterial communities in planktonic and biofilm samples at different chlorine residual concentrations (blank, 0.3 mg/L, 0.8 mg/L, 2.0 mg/L and 4.0 mg/L), and the main reasons for the development of chlorine resistance in bacteria was also discussed. The results showed that the richness of microbial species in the biofilm was higher than that in planktonic microbial samples. In the planktonic samples, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were the dominant groups regardless of the chlorine residual concentration. For biofilm samples, the dominant position of Proteobacteria bacteria was gradually replaced by actinobacteria bacteria with the increase of chlorine residual concentration. In addition, at higher chlorine residual concentration, Gram-positive bacteria were more concentrated to form biofilms. There are three main reasons for the generation of chlorine resistance of bacteria: enhanced function of efflux system, activated bacterial self-repair system, and enhanced nutrient uptake capacity.

Abstract
Graphene-based materials have undergone substantial investigation in recent years owing to their wide array of physicochemical characteristics. Employment of these materials in the current state, where infectious illnesses caused by microbes have severely damaged human life, has found widespread application in combating fatal infectious diseases. These materials interact with the physicochemical characteristics of the microbial cell and alter or damage them. The current review is dedicated to molecular mechanisms underlying the antimicrobial property of graphene-based materials.

[PMID: 37131216 PMCID: PMC10155346 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-02957-5] [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: 01/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Finding strategies to overcome the rising trends of antimicrobial resistance against currently available antimicrobial agents has become increasingly relevant. Graphene oxide has recently emerged as a promising material due to its outstanding physicochemical and biological properties. This study aimed to validate previous data on the antibacterial activity of nanographene oxide (nGO), double antibiotic paste (DAP), and their combination (nGO-DAP). METHODS The antibacterial evaluation was performed against a wide range of microbial pathogens. Synthesis of nGO was achieved using a modified Hummers' method, and loading it with ciprofloxacin and metronidazole resulted in nGO-DAP. The microdilution method was utilized to assess the antimicrobial efficacy of nGO, DAP, and nGO-DAP against two gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus and E. faecalis), two gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, and S. typhi), and an opportunistic pathogenic yeast (C. albicans). Statistical analysis was conducted using one-sample t-test and one-way ANOVA (α = 0.05). RESULTS All three antimicrobial agents significantly increased the killing percent of microbial pathogens compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the synthesized nGO-DAP exhibited higher antimicrobial activity than nGO and DAP per se. CONCLUSION The novel synthesized nGO-DAP can be used as an effective antimicrobial nanomaterial for use in dental, biomedical, and pharmaceutical fields against a range of microbial pathogens, including gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, as well as yeasts.

Abstract
Wound healing has remained a critical challenge due to its susceptibility to bacterial infection and the unique biological inflammatory response. Safe and effective therapeutics are still lacking. Biodegradable macromolecules (ε-polylysine-g-ferrocene, EPL-g-Fc) were developed to accelerate wound healing by combating bacterial infection and attenuating inflammatory responses. The biodegradable macromolecules were prepared via a Schiff-based reaction between ferrocene carboxaldehyde (Fc) and ε-polylysine (EPL). Through the synergistic combination of positive-charged EPL and π-π stacked Fc, the macromolecules possess excellent antibacterial activities. EPL-g-Fc with catalase-like activity could modulate the oxidative microenvironment in mammalian cells and zebrafish by catalyzing H2O2 into H2O and O2. EPL-g-Fc could alleviate inflammatory response in vitro. Furthermore, the macromolecules could accelerate bacteria-infected wound healing in vivo. This work provides a versatile strategy for repairing bacteria-infected wounds by eliminating bacteria, modulating oxidative microenvironment, and alleviating inflammatory response.

Abstract
Numerous studies on the bioavailability of graphene-based nanomaterials relate to the water-only exposure route. However, the sediment exposure route should be the most important pathway for benthic organisms to ingest graphene, while to date little work on the bioavailability of graphene in benthic organisms has been explored. In this study, with the help of carbon-14-labeled few-layer graphene (14C-FLG), we quantificationally compared the bioaccumulation, biodistribution, and elimination kinetics of 14C-FLG in loaches via waterborne and sediment exposures. After 72 h of exposure, the accumulated 14C-FLG in loaches exposed via waterborne was 14.28 μg/g (dry mass), which was 3.18 times higher than that (4.49 μg/g) exposed via sediment. The biodistribution results showed that, compared to waterborne exposure, sediment exposure remarkably facilitated the transport of 14C-FLG from the gut into the liver, which made it difficult to be excreted. Although 14C-FLG did not cause significant hepatotoxicity, the disruption of intestinal microbiota homeostasis, immune response, and several key metabolic pathways in the gut were observed, which may be due to the majority of 14C-FLG being accumulated in the gut. Overall, this study reveals the different bioavailabilities of graphene in loaches via waterborne and sediment exposures, which is helpful in predicting its bioaccumulation capability and trophic transfer ability.

Antimicrobial Potential of Conjugated Lignin/Morin/Chitosan Combinations as a Function of System Complexity. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11050650.

Abstract
As natural biopolymers, chitosan and lignin are characterized by their good biocompatibility, high biodegradability and satisfactory biosafety. The active polymers’ functional groups are responsible for the potential of these biomaterials for use as carrier matrices in the construction of polymer−drug conjugates with prospective applicability in the fields of medicine, food and agriculture—subjects that have attracted attention in recent years. Hence, the aim of this research was to place substantial emphasis on the antimicrobial potential of flavonoid−biopolymer complex systems by assessment of the probable synergetic, additive or antagonistic effects arising as a function of systemic complexity. The joint implementation of morin, chitosan and lignin in conjugated two- and three-component systems provoked species-dependent antimicrobial synergistic and/or potentiation effects against the activity of the tested bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and the clinical isolate Bacillus cereus. The double combinations of morin−chitosan and morin−lignin resulted in a 100% increase in their inhibitory activity against S. aureus as compared to the pure biocompounds. The inhibitory effects of the three-component system, in decreasing order, were: S. aureus (IZ = 15.7 mm) > P. aeruginosa (IZ = 15 mm) > B. cereus and E. coli (IZ = 14 mm). All tested morin-containing two- and three-component systems exhibited clear and significant potentiation effects, especially against S. aureus and B. cereus. The results obtained are a prerequisite for the potential use of the studied conjugated lignin−morin−chitosan combinations in the construction of novel drug-carrier formulations with improved bioactivities.

Abstract
Most chronic wounds suffer from infections, and their treatment is challenging. The usage of antibiotics may lead to bacterial resistance and adverse side effects. Positively charged substances have shown promise, but their applications are usually limited by certain cytotoxicity or complex synthesis. Doped polyaniline that carries a high density of positive charges would be a promising candidate due to its good biocompatibility and easy availability, but its interaction with bacteria has not been elucidated. Herein, the distinct bactericidal effect of polyaniline against Gram-positive bacteria has been verified. The antibacterial activity may result from the specific interaction with lipoteichoic acid to destroy the Gram-positive bacterial cell wall. Polyaniline and a macromolecular dopant (sulfonated hyaluronic acid) are used to construct a flexible hydrogel with skin-mimic electrical conductivity. The in vivo results demonstrate that electrical stimulation (ES) through this hydrogel is superior to ES via separated electrodes (the ES strategy used clinically) for promoting infected chronic wound healing.
