Halistanol sulfate A and rodriguesines A and B are antimicrobial and antibiofilm agents against the cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans

Abstract: Marine natural products A B S T R A C TIn the present investigation we report the antibacterial activity of halistanol sulfate A isolated from the sponge Petromica ciocalyptoides, as well as of rodriguesines A and B isolated from the ascidian Didemnum sp., against the caries etiologic agent Streptococcus mutans. The transcription levels of S. mutans virulence genes gtfB, gtfC and gbpB, as well as of housekeeping genes groEL and 16S, were evaluated by sqRT-PCR analysis of S. mutans planktonic cells. There were … Show more

“…The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) test or broth microdilution assay was carried out using microplates (96 wells), following the procedure according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute [ 32 ] and Lima et al [ 33 ] for bacteria and EUCAST [ 34 ] for yeast, with some modifications. The McFarland Scale 0.5 determined the cell concentration.…”

“…Compound 95 inhibited biofilm formation in two S. mutans strains at low MIC, but did not inhibit initial colonization by S. sanguinis . Such activity is highly desirable in preventative treatments that inhibits pathogenic bacteria via the disruption of biofilm formation without affecting the healthy normal microflora [ 64 ].…”

“…were found to possess broad antimicrobial activities inhibiting both oral streptococci and pathogenic bacteria. These diketopiperazines are reported to modulate the LuxR-mediated quorum-sensing systems of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and are considered to influence cell-cell bacterial signaling, offering alternative ways to control biofilms by interfering with microbial communication [ 64 ]. Diketopiperazines, cyclo-( l -valyl- d -proline) ( 97 ) cyclo-( l -phenylalanyl- d -proline ( 98 ), were isolated from a Rheinheimera japonica strain KMM 9513 collected from shores off of the Sea of Japan.…”
