Abstract
Any equipment submerged in the ocean will have its surface attacked by fouling organisms, which can cause serious damage. Traditional antifouling coatings contain heavy metal ions, which also have a detrimental effect on the marine ecological environment and cannot fulfill the needs of practical applications. As the awareness of environmental protection is increasing, new environmentally friendly and broad-spectrum antifouling coatings have become the current research hotspot in the field of marine antifouling. This review briefly outlines the formation process of biofouling and the fouling mechanism. Then, it describes the research progress of new environmentally friendly antifouling coatings in recent years, including fouling release antifouling coatings, photocatalytic antifouling coatings and natural antifouling agents derived from biomimetic strategies, micro/nanostructured antifouling materials and hydrogel antifouling coatings. Highlights include the mechanism of action of antimicrobial peptides and the means of preparation of modified surfaces. This category of antifouling materials has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and environmental friendliness and is expected to be a new type of marine antifouling coating with desirable antifouling functions. Finally, the future research directions of antifouling coatings are prospected, which are intended to provide a reference for the development of efficient, broad-spectrum and green marine antifouling coatings.

Zhou A, Li L, Zhao G, Min L, Liu S, Zhu S, Guo Q, Liu C, Zhang S, Li P. Vitamin D3 Inhibits Helicobacter pylori Infection by Activating the VitD3/VDR-CAMP Pathway in Mice. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2020; 10:566730. [PMID: 33194806 PMCID: PMC7646218 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2020.566730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/27/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is closely associated with the occurrence and development of gastric diseases. Therefore, eliminating H. pylori infection should help to prevent gastric diseases. Vitamin D3 (VitD3, 1,25(OH)2D3) was previously observed to exhibit anti-H. pylori infection activity in clinic, but these results were reported in heterogeneous in vivo studies without elucidation of the underlying mechanisms. In the present study, we established H. pylori infection models in both wild-type and VDR knockdown (VDR-KD) mice, which were used to demonstrate that VitD3 inhibits H. pylori infection by enhancing the expression of VitD receptor (VDR) and cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP). Furthermore, VDR-KD mice that exhibited lower VDR expression were more susceptible to H. pylori infection. In cultured mouse primary gastric epithelial cells, we further demonstrated that the VitD3/VDR complex binds to the CAMP promoter region to increase its expression. These data provide a mechanistic explanation of the anti-H. pylori infection activity of VitD3 at the molecular level in mice and suggest a new avenue for the clinical management of H. pylori eradication therapy.

Identification of a group D anti-lipopolysaccharide factor (ALF) from kuruma prawn (Marsupenaeus japonicus) with antibacterial activity against Vibrio parahaemolyticus. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2020; 102:368-380. [PMID: 32360914 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2020.04.039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2020] [Revised: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 04/18/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Anti-lipopolysaccharide factor (ALF), which belongs to the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) family, has become a relatively new weapon to combat severe infections and has been demonstrated to be active against bacteria, fungi and some viruses. In the present study, a new ALF of group D (MjALF-D; GenBank accession No. MN416688) from Marsupenaeus japonicus was detected. MjALF-D encodes a polypeptide with 124 aa, and the peptide contains a 26-residue signal peptide and a lipopolysaccharide-binding domain (LBD). The structure of MjALF-D was found to consist of three α-helices, four β-sheets and random coils. qRT-PCR analysis revealed that MjALF-D expression was primarily observed in the stomach and was universally upregulated in both the gill and stomach after challenge by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Moreover, rMjALF-D can inhibit the growth of V. parahaemolyticus. rMjALF-D could destroy the bacterial membrane and lead to cytoplasmic leakage investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which may be the mechanism by which rMjALF-D inhibits V. parahaemolyticus. Additionally, rMjALF-D showed distinct binding or antibacterial ability after direct incubation with V. parahaemolyticus or bacterial genomic DNA and a certain effect on the protein expression of it. Together, these results indicated that rMjALF-D possessed the antibacterial activity against V. parahaemolyticus and the potential involvement in the innate immune response of M. japonicus.

Abstract
Homeostasis and integrity of bowel mucosa is assured by well controlled mechanical, biochemical and immunological mechanisms. First line of defense is presented by the antimicrobial peptides (AMP), which form a continuous layer on the bowel surface, produced by intestinal specific (Paneth) and non-specific epithelial cells. AMPs have a significant antimicrobial, antifungal and antiviral, as well as immunomodulatory effects. Next line of defense is the pattern recognition receptors (PRR), which allows identifying conservative molecular patterns of different pathogens, and starts antimicrobial and inflammatory mechanisms through gene-expression induction. We review the most recent knowledge and studies concerning these mechanisms.
